Prime Minister Sharon described for President Chirac the situation in the field, including the two terror
attacks in which three Israelis were injured. The Prime Minister noted
that there have been 17 terror attacks in the past 24 hours. Prime
Minister Sharon said that the Palestinian terror has not stopped.
Arafat continues to give the green light to terrorism, and has taken no
preventative actions to foil terrorist attacks.
Prime Minister Sharon said that "Israel's patience with empty words and
false promises has run out. Israel wants to see actions and results."
Prime Minister Sharon stated that Israel is committed, and will continue
to be committed, to peace, true peace, a peace for generations.
However, Israel will continue to take every necessary measure to protect
the lives of its citizens, and its very existence.
President Chirac told Prime Minister Sharon that he would be happy to
meet with him at the earliest possible occasion.
