The Palestinian Authority is to blame for the stabbing and car-ramming terror attack in northern Israel on Friday in which the attacker killed two and injured two others, according to Ofir Akunis, consul general of Israel in New York.

The murder victims were Aviv Maor, 19, and Shimshon Mordechai, 69.

“The sickening Palestinian terror struck Israeli civilians once again today,” Akunis said. “This barbaric attack is a direct result of the relentless incitement encouraged by the Palestinian Authority through its media and education system.”

“As usual, Abu Mazen continues to support terrorism and refrains from condemning it,” Akunis added, of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas.

The faction is “an extension” of the IRGC’s Quds Force and is “not a Lebanese resistance movement,” a State Department official said.
“If you are not here, you allow the enemies to take over,” Danny Danon told JNS, of why the Jewish state must be present at the United Nations. “If I do not come to the room, they will continue to promote hate.”
“We decided that it was time for a rigorous narrative review of what we called anatomy of antisemitism in the health professions, not just medicine but across-the-board,” one of the authors of a new paper told JNS.
