http://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-duma-attack-was-definitely-jewish-terrorism/A senior IDF officer told reporters on Tuesday that security agencies had no doubt as to the nature of a deadly firebombing attack on a Palestinian familys home in July.
The July 31 attack in the northern West Bank village of Duma killed 18-month-old Ali Dawabsha. His father Saad and mother Riham succumbed to severe burns the following week and in early September, respectively. Four-year-old Ahmed, still hospitalized at Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer near Ramat Gan with burns over much of his body, is the sole surviving member of the family.
This was an act of Jewish terrorism, and thats unambiguous, the officer said. He did not reveal evidence from the ongoing investigation, but insisted, All the conjecture and speculations being spread on this issue lack any basis in reality.
...
The officer also responded to complaints by family members of the victims reiterated this week by a UN official that said the IDF was lax in locating the suspected attackers. While he would not give any update on the investigation, including whether there were suspects, he said security agencies were devoting every required resources to solving the case and catching the perpetrators.
