Israeli Minister of Economy and Industry, Eli Cohen (Kulanu) placed responsibility on Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) for a terror stabbing attack north of Jerusalem in the community of Adam on Thursday night.

"The Palestinian Authority and Abu Mazen have direct responsibility for the despicable attack that took place on Thursday, after they talked about continuing financing and subsidization of murderers," Cohen said.

"We must stop this incitement, and anyone who talks about a political settlement, about a desire to live in peace, cannot finance murderers and martyrs."
