ing, reportedly was informed of the
decision.
Danny Dayan, chairman of the
Yesha Council settlers' umbrella
group, called the approval of new
housing in response to the attack "a
small step in the right direction." He
said it was "deeply troubling that it
requires the murder of children in
the arms of their parents to achieve
such an objective!'
At the funeral, Knesset Speaker
Reuven Rivlin said Udi and Ruth
Fogel personified devotion to the
Zionist vision and were pioneers.
"Your hands held both scythe and
book, teachers and settlers whose
entire lives were the love of their
country and the love they had for
their neighbors," Rivlin said. "Build
more, live more, more footholds
— that is our response to the mur-
derers so that they know they can't
defeat us."
Udi Fogeys brother Motti said, "All
the slogans about Torah and settle-
ment, the Land of Israel and the
Jewish people, try to make us forget
the simple and painful truth: You
are gone. You are gone and no slogan
will bring you back.
"Above all, this funeral must be
a private event. Udi, you are not a
symbol or a national event. Your life
had a purpose of its own and your
horrible death must not make your
life into a pawn."
The fringe Al-Aksa Martyrs
Brigades of Imad Mughniyeh had
claimed responsibility for the attack.
The group is named for Mughniyeh,
who was Hezbollah's chief of mili-
tary operations until he was killed
by a car bomb in Damascus in 2008.
Hezbollah blames Israel's Mossad
intelligence agency for the killing.
In Gaza, Hamas officials report-
edly handed out candy to residents
in celebration of the attack.
Israeli military and police forces
scoured the West Bank Sunday for
the murderer or murderers, as well
as to prevent revenge attacks by
Israeli settlers.
"Israel will not stand by idly after
such a despicable murder and will
act vigorously to safeguard the lives
of the citizens of Israel and pun-
ish the murderers," Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu said in a state-
ment. "I expect the international
community to sharply and unequiv-
ocally condemn this murder, the
murder of children."
Netanyahu also called on the
Palestinian leadership, who he said

condemned the attacks with "weak
and mumbled statements," to "stop
the incitement that is conducted
on a daily basis in their schools,
mosques and the media under
their control. The time has come to
stop this double-talk in which the
Palestinian Authority outwardly
talks peace and allows — and some-
times leads — incitement at home."
PA Prime Minister Salam Fayyad
"firmly" condemned the attack, the
Jerusalem Post reported.
The White House and the Mideast
Quartet — the diplomatic grouping
of the United Nations, the European
Union, Russia and the United States
that guides the peace process —
also condemned the attack, offering
their condolences to the victims'
family and to the Israeli people.
"There is no possible justification
for the killing of parents and chil-
dren in their home:' said the White
House statement, which called the
attack an act of terrorism.
"Attacks on any civilians are com-
pletely unacceptable in any circum-
stance," the Quartet's statement said.
The Quartet also called to "expedite
efforts to achieve Israeli-Palestinian
and comprehensive Arab-Israeli
peace."
Volunteers for ZAKA, the
Orthodox search and rescue organi-
zation, described the scene shortly
after the terror attack as "absolutely
horrific."
"We saw toys lying next to pools
of blood, Shabbat clothes covered in
blood and everywhere the smell of
death mixing with the aroma of the
Shabbat meal: one volunteer said.
The volunteers said the sights
were "among the worst we have ever
seen!'
Israeli President Shimon Peres
said in a statement that the attack
"indicates a loss of humanity. There
is no religion in the world or any
faith that allows these kinds of hor-
rible acts."
Meanwhile, the head of Israel's
Government Press Office is demand-
ing an apology from Cable News
Network over its coverage of the
attack, which avoided describing
the incident as a terrorist attack
and then placed the words 'terrorist
attack' in quotation marks in a head-
line on its website.
The CNN report said that the
Israeli military was searching for an
intruder. I 1
