    Translation from Hebrew to English by me (this is a Haaretz reporter, so that is why there is leftist language). Also, the term "incident" is something that the whole Israeli media uses, which shows how often terrorism happens, that it is considered an "incident" or "incident of terror." This is an primary official authorization; the deputy of Mohammad Daf planned the incident which 3 Israelis were murdered; Israel: the sending of foreign terrorists shows a new angle from the Hamas; Suspicion: Al Queda located the British suicide bombers. The Shabak approved tonight officially, that the activists of of the military...

    Avi Taviv, security guard at Mike's Place at the time of last week's suicide bombing, spoke to journalists from his hospital bed for the first time yesterday. "I'm feeling a lot better. I remember the blues session, then getting up on a table to sing 'Happy Birthday," he told Israel Television Channel One. "Beyond that nothing." Taviv's bond with the pub, where three people died and about 60 were injured, remains strong. "Mike's Place is everything for me. I was in the army with the barman, and the owners are close friends. The regulars are my family. The fact that...
