Livni on Dubai hit: A dead terrorist is good news

Haaretz, 23 February 2010

Opposition leader and Kadima chairwoman Tzipi Livni on Tuesday praised the assassination of a Hamas commander in Dubai last month, marking the first such comment from a top Israeli official.

Tzipi Livni, speaking at the closing panel of the board of trustees of the Jewish Agency in Jerusalem, said the death of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh was good news, but did not say who was behind the killing.

“The entire world must support those fighting terrorism: an American, British or Israeli soldier regardless if he is in Gaza or Dubai. The fact that a terrorist was killed, and it doesn’t matter if it was in Dubai or Gaza, is good news to those fighting terrorism,” said Livni.

Also on Tuesday, Former Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Dan Halutz said that the attribution of the Mabhouh assassination to Israel increases the country’s power of deterrence, Army Radio reported.

Tzipi Livni, the world thinks YOU ARE A TERRORIST!

The fact the is, it doesn't matter if you live in Tel Aviv or Jerusalem.

Might your statement be some sort of "prophetic" K A R M A ?

God (yes, I put your absent "O" in that word) works in mysterious ways!
