MK Israel Katz (Likud) spoke to Ynet about the Hadera terror attack and about in Hadera and about coalition member and United Arab List leader Mansour Abbas's condemnation of the attack:

Katz said Abbas is 'a Muslim Brotherhood man who speaks with double tongues' and does not back the government in the war on terror.

Katz added that the opposition would support the government's actions in dealing with the current wave of terrorism, but does not think the current government is capable of putting up an effective fight, because 'when it reaches the line of political survival it flees backward.'
