Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said there was a clear link between the Qassam rocket fire on the western Negev and Thursday's deadly attack on the Mercaz Harav rabbinical seminary in Jerusalem.
"The Qassam fire and the terror attacks are aimed at making are lives intolerable, but just as we achieved deterrence against the Arab countries and Hizbullah, we will also achieve deterrence against the terror organizations," he said. (Attila Somfalvi)
