Yoram Ettinger, Israel\'s former liaison to the U.S. Congress, told Arutz-7 today, \"One thing that we can learn from yesterday is the punishment that comes to those who don\'t respond forcefully to terrorism. Allow me review the following:
\"October 2000 - 17 US sailors were murdered in a Bin Laden attack in Aden, but the Clinton administration did not respond militarily, because he preferred to conduct negotiations.
\"Aug 1998 - 257 people, including 12 Americans, were killed in the bombing of American Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, and the response was cruiser missiles to insignificant targets in Sudan and Pakistan.
\"June \'96 - 19 Americans murdered in a military base in Saudi Arabia, with no American military response.
\"November \'95 - 5 Americans were murdered in an army base in Riyadh, with no American military response.
\"This shows us what is the punishment for using negotiations as an option for terrorism.\"
