Suicide blast buries last peace hopes under the rubble of Tel Aviv

Article Abstract:

Islamic militant organisation Hamas has claimed responsibility for a suicide bomb attack in Tel Aviv, Israel, in which two people were killed and 47 wounded. The attack has come shortly after Israel began to construct a Jewish settlement at Har Homa in east Jerusalem. It seems that there is now little hope of a peace agreement being reached between Israel and the Palestinians. There has also been confrontation between Israelis and Palestinians in Hebron, Palestine.
