In Hevron, terrorists fired down from Abu Sneineh and Haret A-Sheikh at the Jewish neighborhoods on Friday night, less than a week after Jibril Rajoub received control of them. He promised at the time that the shooting would not recur. Prime Minister Sharon decided this weekend not to order the army to re-take the hills, after Rajoub again promised to ensure quiet.
Minister Dalia Itzik (Labor) had some sharp words for Environment Minister Tzachi Hanegbi (Likud) in an exchange between them on this topic during today\'s government meeting. When she objected to the army\'s return to the Abu Sneineh hills, Hanegbi said, \"You might look at it differently if it were your own children who were being shot at from the hills there.\" Itzik responded bitingly, and Prime Minister Sharon was forced to intervene.
