Interim Prime Minister Ehud Olmert asserted on Friday that Syrian and Iran were behind Monday's suicide bombing in Tel Aviv that killed nine Israelis and wounded dozens.
"The order for the Tel Aviv suicide bombing came from Damascus and when the operation was complete the report went back to Damascus," Olmert told a visiting group of US senators, according to his office.
He noted that the Iranians, using Syria as a mediator, were funding and guiding terrorism against Israel. He also mentioned the strengthening ties between the two states and Hamas. "There is a channel of communication between Iran, Syria and the Palestinian Authority," claimed Olmert.
Addressing the Palestinian front, the interim prime minister said that Israel preferred to deal with them diplomatically, but if the terrorist attacks continued, then Israel would have no choice but to see to its own security using unilateral measures.
Olmert warned that it would be the Palestinians who suffered if Israel unilaterally declared its own borders. On the other hand, Hamas Member of Parliament Mushir al-Masri, in an interview to al-Arabiya, warned that Israel defining the final borders on its own would exacerbate the situation in the whole region.
Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni also met with the US representatives on Thursday.
So what are they going to do about it?

Stick a fork in em.
Israel will soon go the way of Apartied South Africa. You may want to take a few last photos before the relics of the past are paved over. Olmert will be Israel's Jimmy Carter.
Olmert is going to be very angry. And he will send a letter to Assad telling him how him how angry he is.
Shouldn't be a surprise, and if not stepped on hard, next time they'll do worse.
Tick, tick, tick...
Isaiah 17
An Oracle Against Damascus
1 An oracle concerning Damascus:
"See, Damascus will no longer be a city
but will become a heap of ruins.
2 The cities of Aroer will be deserted
and left to flocks, which will lie down,
with no one to make them afraid.
3 The fortified city will disappear from Ephraim,
and royal power from Damascus;
the remnant of Aram will be
like the glory of the Israelites,"
declares the LORD Almighty.
Of all the so called "player" wannabes in the ME Syria seems to be a nation that could be made an example of without ruining the flow of oil outside the PG. Here's a verse that sort of points out the coming demise of Damascus for anyone willing to read ahead in their Bible Study. Boom goes Damascus, Boom Theran, Boom because they are so Islamabad!
Let's drop the big one, there will be no one left to blame us!
Revelation 6:5-7 (New International Version)
When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "A quart[a] of wheat for a day's wages,[b] and three quarts of barley for a day's wages,[c] and do not damage the oil and the wine!"
When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"
