Netanyahu visits Fogel Family: "They shoot and we build"

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the house of Ruth Fogel's parents in Jerusalem on Sunday where the shiva for the five Fogel family members who were butchered in their beds is taking place. "They shoot and we build," Netanyahu told Ruth's parents.
"They say that the Land of Israel is built in agony but we never thought agony would be this great, This wicked act has made everyone come out and say: No more. Security forces are doing everything to trace the murderers and we shall catch those criminals. These are not people but monsters. "
President Shimon Peres addressed the Itamar terrorist attack during an induction ceremony held in his residence:
"On Saturday, we were shocked to learn of one of the ugliest and most terrible murders of parents and small children in their beds, Our hearts are with the orphans, with the bereaved families and the entire community at this awful moment. I am confident that security forces will leave no stone unturned and catch the perpetrators of this horror and bring justice. Terror will be defeated. It shall not prevail."
Justice Minister Yaakov Ne'eman sent his condolences to the victims' families and said: "No words can describe this heinous crime. We cannot comprehend how any man can take the lives of parents, small children and infants. An entire family. The State of Israel will do everything to bring these cowardly murderers to justice. The people of Israel will emerge stronger from any test they may face."
