TEL AVIV, Israel Apr 17, 2006 (AP)Ñ After Hamas defended a deadly suicide bombing Monday, Israel’s U.N. ambassador warned that recent statements by the Palestinian government, Iran and Syria “are clear declarations of war, and I urge each and every one of you to listen carefully and take them at face value.”

Ambassador Dan Gillerman cautioned that a new “axis of terror” Iran, Syria and the Hamas-run Palestinian government was sowing the seeds of the first world war of the 21st century.

“A dark cloud is looming above our region, and it is metastasizing as a result of the statements and actions by leaders of Iran, Syria, and the newly elected government of the Palestinian Authority,” he said.
