The Shin Bet has decided recently to increase the security around President Shimon Peres, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Thursday.

 

The decision was made after several intelligence leads indicated that right-wing extremists or Palestinian terror groups may try to harm Peres. The president, it was reported, had already received several death threats.

 

Peres is considered "an obvious target" by many, due to his direct involvement in the Oslo Accords; many extreme political right websites refer to him as "a traitor" and "a murderer".

 

"Peres is a symbol and extremists might try to harm him as ways to bring the peace process to a halt," a senior political source told Yedioth Ahronoth.

Faced with a growing number of threats, the Shin Bet has decided to handle Peres' security as it does the prime minister's, increasing his security detail and adding a Shin Bet paramedic to it, making Peres the first president in Israel's history to be accompanied by a medical officer at all times.

 

Brigadier-General Shimon Hefetz, aide-de-camp to the president said that "just like any other head of state, the president has his own security detail… any decisions made regarding the president's security are made by the Shin Bet according to the intelligence at hand."

Very true

The day Peres dies should be declared a Jewish holiday and celebrated throughout Eretz Yisrael.

The same is true for Smolmert, Livni and many other treasonous rodents.

The celebrations can't come soon enough.

They're all such villains, that perhaps we should just go ahead and set aside a new Jewish Holiday to celebrate their deaths, and start celebrating!

After all, they're going to all die eventually!

Let the party begin!

Scriabin can compose the musical numbers for the new holiday.
