Israeli may have staged kidnapping of teenagers – Palestinian FM

Israel may have staged the kidnapping of three of its teenagers 10 days ago as the Jewish state failed to provide any proof that Hamas was behind the abduction, Riyad Al-Maliki, Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister, said. The kidnapping could be Israel’s “childish game” to draw attention to it or an attempt to turn the Israelis from aggressors to victims, he told Saudi A-Sharq Al-Awsat daily. Even if the teenagers were indeed abducted they could’ve been victims of “Jewish criminals, Palestinian criminals or Palestinian-Jewish criminals” who carried out the kidnapping “for their own personal goals,” he added.
