ISRAEL - US ambassador to Israel David Friedman on Wednesday accused Palestinians and their leadership for the lack of a peace deal with Israel. The statement by Friedman denounced Hamas for praising a drive-by shooting that killed Israeli Rabbi Raziel Shevach, who was shot Tuesday in a West Bank attack. "An Israeli father of six was killed last night in cold blood by Palestinian terrorists. Hamas praises the killers and PA laws will provide them financial rewards," Friedman said. "Look no further to why there is no peace. Praying for the bereaved Shevach family."
