Peres to EU: Decision sends message to terrorist groups
President Shimon Peres sent a special missive to heads of states and EU institutions following the decision to include the military wing of Hezbollah on its list of terrorist organizations.
Peres wrote in the letter, "I would like to express the appreciation of Israel in the decision made by the Union. This is a necessary and prudent step which will convey a message to terrorist organizations and to countries which sponsor terrorism in their land." (Noam Dvir)
