3/4 of Terror Attacks in West Bank Directed by Hizballah

(Yediot Ahronot-Hebrew) Hanan Greenberg - 3/4 of the terror incidents in Judea and Samaria in 2004 are directed by Hizballah, according to a senior IDF officer. The question of whether the PA is directing terror is irrelevant, he said. There is no Palestinian capability to command and direct. Iran has stepped into the vacuum via Hizballah, with Hizballah acting as the operations officer. A Hizballah operative tells the Palestinian terrorist where to meet the taxi driver, where to get the bomb, and what the target is, all based on the payment of money. The Palestinian leadership "is concerned about the influence of Hizballah no less than we are," he said.
