[Washington Post] Israeli officials maintained Thursday that Iran was behind a suicide kaboom that killed five Israeli tourists in Bulgaria and vowed to settle the score, but indicated that retaliation was unlikely to take the form of a military strike on Iran.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the Wednesday attack was "part of a global campaign of terror carried out by Iran and Hezbollah," a Lebanese militia that receives Iranian support. Netanyahu's statement followed a string of similar comments by other senior Israeli officials and President Shimon Peres, who pledged to "take action in every terror nest."
