Mahmoud Abbas said Israelis are responsible for the deadly suicide bombing last month at a Tel Aviv nightclub. Asked in a Time Magazine interview who was responsible for the Feb. 25 attack in which five people were killed, the Palestinian Authority president responded: “It was individuals. We arrested five. If you ask me who is responsible, the Israelis are responsible. The bombers came from the suburb of Tulkarm to Tel Aviv, crossing the wall. So who is responsible? The wall and the Israelis.”
