Yacimovich: Failure to stop price tag attacks inconceivable

Opposition leader Shelly Yacimovich said Monday that the increasing frequency of price tag attacks is "not only damaging the fragile nature of relations between Jews and Arabs in Israel, and hurting Israel's image in the world, it also represents a blatant disregard and trampling of the rule of law in Israel."
Yacimovich, speaking after vandals punctured tires and spray-painted hate slogans in the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Beit Hanina early Monday morning, said that it was inconceivable that Israel, which is among the most skilled nations in the world at intelligence gathering, has been unable to find the "extremist fringe group" perpetrating price tag attacks.
