An Israeli citizen - an Arab from the Galilee - has been arrested on charges that he planned at least two major terror attacks against Jews: one in the Caffit Cafe in Jerusalem, and the other in the Rafael Armaments Development Authority in northern Israel.
The accused terrorist, Daher Ali - a 31-year-old math teacher in a Jerusalem-area school - freely confessed to all the charges against him. "I am proud to identify with and contribute to Hamas," he said, "as I believe that this is a war of Islam against Judaism." He also said that his goal was to kill as many Jews as possible.
This was the fourth incident this year in which Israeli-Arabs have been investigated for terror activities in northern Israel, police sources said. They termed it a "worrisome trend."
