Abbas vows to continue to pay salaries to jihad terrorists and their families even if “we have only a penny left”(The Business of Killing Americans & So Many Others)

Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas has vowed that “his government will continue to pay salaries to terrorists and their families even if ‘we have only a penny left.'”
A quarter century after Oslo and after having received billions of dollars in foreign aid, the Palestinian Authority (PA) remains a corrupt jihadist entity. It is stunning that Western nations are still contributing to the funding of PA-sponsored jihad terror, which includes a propaganda war.
Earlier this month, the Knesset passed a bill that allows the Israeli government to deduct the payments for terrorists’ salaries from taxes Israel collects on behalf of the Palestinians….In response, Abbas’ spokesman, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, said the move was a “declaration of war.”
Jihadists typically levy false accusations at any opponent who resists their terror tactics. The move by Israel is long overdue.

TEL AVIV – Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Monday vowed that his government will continue to pay salaries to terrorists and their families even if “we have only a penny left.”
“We will not accept a cut or cancellation of salaries to the families of martyrs and prisoners, as some are trying to bring about,” he told representatives of an advocacy group for Palestinian prisoners.
Around 35,000 families of Palestinians killed, wounded or serving sentences in Israeli prisons receive monthly remunerations of as much as $3,500. In 2018 the PA’s so-called “pay-for-slay” scheme amounted to approximately $330 million, which constitutes seven percent of the Palestinian Authority’s $5 billion budget.
“We view the prisoners and the martyrs as planets and stars in the skies of the Palestinian struggle, and they have priority in everything.”
He added that the prisoners advocacy movement was “paving the way for the independence of Palestine.”
Earlier this month, the Knesset passed a bill that allows the Israeli government to deduct the payments for terrorists’ salaries from taxes Israel collects on behalf of the Palestinians.
