"Outcome of encounter with terrorist – you're standing and he's lying"

Defense Minister Moshe (Bugie) Ya'alon, visited today (Wednesday) the "Jordan Lions" brigade in the Jordan Valley and the Valley Division. During the visit, the minister of defense Ya'alon was briefed on the border with Jordan, the Jordan Valley Brigade's operations and the forces' dealing with the challenges in the area of intrusion prevention and hostile terrorist activity.

During the visit to the battalion, Ya'alon said to men and women fighters in the battalion that "the sector in the Valley is relatively quiet, but we need to be vigilant for the quiet might cheat. There is a challenge to maintain awareness of the sector and not get into a eroding routine and complacency. In ongoing security operations you need to be aware that someone is looking at you and looking for the weak spot. It is important that this awareness will be there. "

Ya'alon further said, "In Judea and Samaria we are in a period of multi-events. The trick is not to become a target for individual terrorists or attempts by terrorist networks to carry out attacks, and if that happens you need to finish the event immediately by immediate harm of the terrorist and neutralizing him. The result in every encounter with a terrorist should be such, that you are standing and the terrorist lies. If you transmit vigilance and respond professionally and determinedly to neutralize the threat, you will decrease the chances of harm."
