"This attack is a clear reminder that there is a war in the West Bank, just as there is a war in Gaza and on the northern border," local settlement regional council mayor Yossi Dagan said. "The Palestinian Authority is like Hamas. These are terrorists in suits, and those are terrorists with green headbands."
Dagan demanded that "the government and senior command change the existing paradigm. "We must return security checkpoints, collect the weapons, and wage war against the Palestinian Authority's terror infrastructures," he said.
