aDemocrats are reportedly trying to convince the Palestinians to make salaries based on economic conditions and not just terrorism, said senior intelligence analyst Yossi Kuperwasser.
This could be the first time in over a decade that the PA did not pay salaries to terrorists, with banks appearing to buck the pay-for-slay policy for fear of legal ramifications.
When will Citibank stop working with the Bank of Palestine, which is involved in the barbaric “pay for slay” program that pays to terrorists who kill and maim Israelis, Americans, and Europeans?
‘In the war for the protection of Israeli citizens, there will be no compromises,’ tweeted Deputy Defense Minister Avi Dichter about preventing these funds from reaching terrorists and their families.
Naftali Bennett announced that the government will seize the bank accounts of Arab-Israeli terrorists who receive salaries from the Palestinian Authority for committing heinous crimes.
The Palestinian Authority slashed medical treatments in Israeli hospitals to continue funding its “Pay for Slay” policy, leaving Palestinian children as the main victims of these self-imposed cuts.
According to the Palestinian Authority’s version of reality, the tragedy of a recent terror attack in Israel was not that two innocent Jews were stabbed, but that the Palestinian terrorist who committed the attack was killed.
A 15 million euro donation by the E.U. will fill the funding gap that P.A. leader Mahmoud Abbas recently cut in order to continue payments to Palestinian terrorist prisoners and ‘martyr’ families.
The P.A. punishes its own medically needy citizens, depriving them of care in order to pay over $138 a year to murderers, other violent criminals, and the families of those killed committing acts of terror.
While the Israeli cabinet authorized a deduction of nearly $140 million from the P.A. due to its longstanding policy of paying monthly stipends to convicted terrorists and their families, Abbas remains committed to the reprehensible practice.
Faced with massive cuts in tax revenues based on the Palestinians’ pro-terror pay-for-slay policy, Abbas declared he would continue paying terror stipends, even if these payments exhausted all PA funds.
Abbas is set to refuse $2.2 billion in tax transfers from Israel in 2019 in response to Israel’s deduction of $139.5 million that the Palestinian Authority planned to used to reward terrorists.
Palestinian leadership continues to cut off its nose to spite its face, refusing U.S. aid instead of eliminating its policy of paying terrorists for their heinous crimes.
The ‘End Palestinian Terror Salaries Act’ would build on the Taylor Force Act to impose penalties on officials who reward terrorists and their families.
After Palestinian terrorists killed and wounded 14 Israelis in multiple attacks, David Friedman blasts PA laws compensating perpetrators for ‘heinous act.’
A top Palestinian official ‘expressed his pride’ in the terrorists, who ‘sacrifice[d] years of their lives for the freedom of the country and the people.’
Israel’s new law fighting terror stipends ‘is tantamount to a declaration of war against the Palestinian people, their fighters and families and martyrs who fought for its freedom and for Jerusalem,’ Abu Rudeineh declared.
Any assistance provided by the Palestinians to those ‘convicted of politically motivated violence is an affront to Australian values, and undermines the prospect of meaningful peace between Israel and the Palestinians,’ Bishop stated.
It would almost be funny if it wasn’t so absurd – the PA, whose leaders pay salaries to imprisoned terrorist murderers participated in a conference titled ‘No Money for Terrorism!’
