President says attempt to sow terror will fail

President Reuven Rivlin says Ramadan has become “a month of terror and nightmares.”

Referring to the recent terror attacks against Israelis, many of which were “lone wolf” attacks, the president says that “the attempt to sow terror and horror on the roads and streets of the entire country will fail.”

“Ramadan has become in front of our very eyes a month of terror and nightmares. Terrorism is terrorism, all over the Land of Israel: In Judea and Samaria, in the Gaza periphery, in Jerusalem and all over the world. We will fight it with determination and force until it is eradicated from the entire Land of Israel. During Ramadan, more than ever, the failure of the Palestinian leadership to speak out and to act against those who plan and carry out terror attacks is sorely felt,” Rivlin says.

The president adds: “Jews will continue to leave their daily lives in the entire Land of Israel without needing to fear for their lives. I pray for the wellbeing of the wounded and I am certain the security establishment will reach each one of the attackers and bring them to justice.”
