Hamas Behind Attack

by Eric on March 7, 2008

The UK Telegraph reports that Hamas instigated the attack.

Sources in Gaza said that the Izzedine Al-Qassam Brigades instigated the attack
by Alaa Abu Idheim, the 26-year-old gunman who stormed the Jewish religious
college on Thursday.

Israel retaliated with targeted air strikes in Gaza overnight. A military response is necessary, however, it is too easy to be consumed with the violence. 7 of the Yeshiva students killed were teenagers. The other was only in his twenties. This was an attack on peaceful students who were studying Torah.
