Ben-Eliezer praised the IDF for having \"struck a severe blow at the infrastructures of terror, including the arrests of wanted fugitives and clashing with armed terrorist elements, and capturing large quantities of weapons, war material, bombs and explosives.\" Some IDF officers deny that the missions in the two cities were completed, however, and say that the forces should not have been withdrawn. They say that the army did not succeed in uncovering all the terrorist infrastructures there.
Arutz-7 correspondent Haggai Huberman reports that these cities, over which the army took control eight days ago, were centers in which major terrorist attacks were planned and originated. The worst of all the Moslem Arab terrorist atrocities in the Oslo War, the Passover Seder massacre that killed 27 Jews two weeks ago, was perpetrated by a Tul Karem resident.
