Jewish Israel Weekly News Summary B''H Israel and Jewish Interest News items from an independent Jewish news source. As the violence continues, the news reports in the Israeli media seem to be summing up the days events rather than focusing on the individual tragedies.
Many attacks go unreported in the press and only the most tragic are reported.
Each day car bombs are defused, motars are fired at settlements, gun shots are fired at Israelis, and stones hurled at passing cars. Only when it unfortunately kills or maims, is it neccessarily reported. With no polictical solution in sight, more and more Israelis believe that only strong military action in local areas can stop attacks. As an example, many Israelis now believe that only regaining Beit Jala will stop firing into Jerusalem's Gilo neighborhood. The Israeli public is begining to become critical of Sharon's responses to the Palestinian attacks.
