Israel pulls funds from Palestinian terrorist salaries to give instead to their victims

Here's a concept: a country that is routinely attacked by terrorists who are their neighbors, [aka Hamassholes] will now withhold the tax funds used by the PA to pay those terrorists and instead give the money to the victims and families of the Hamassholes.

“There is no greater justice than offsetting the funds of the Palestinian Authority, which supports terrorism, and transferring them to the families of the victims of terrorism,” Israel’s Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich said. 

Israel had historically given the money to the PA who then took it and passed it along to support Palestinian terrorism as well as the families of "martyrs" who died while killing, or attempting to kill Israelis. But under Benjamin Netanyahu's new government, Israel is refusing to continue this insane practice whereby the PA has a "pay-for-slay" policy.

“We promised to fix this, and today we are correcting an injustice,” said Smotrich at a Sunday press conference, reported JNS.org. “This is an important day for morality, for justice and for the fight against terrorism.”

According to JNS report, the PA spent $157 million in 2021 paying terror salaries, incentivizing the murder of innocent Israelis.

The despicable duo

Israel’s new policy is in accordance with a ruling by the Jerusalem District Court holding the PA responsible for terrorist crimes committed against Israelis due to the PA’s”pay-for-slay” policy, which violates Israeli law and the U.S.’ Taylor Force Act.

Taylor Force was an American veteran of tours in Iraq and Afghanistan who was murdered by a terrorist during a walk in Tel Aviv amid a Vanderbilt University MBA trip focused on global entrepreneurship. The family of the terrorist, who was killed on the scene, is entitled to payments for life according to official PA policy.

Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN) had no comment on the matter.

Palestinian Authority praise murder of US tourist in Israel

Taylor Force: RIP

It takes a coward with a weapon killing innocent bystanders to be considered a "martyr" to Palestinians. Of course, the bystanders have to be Israelis or anyone who is not a Muslim, and even Jewish babies are targets.

The Palestinian dirt-bag who went on a stab-fest in Israel three months ago, killing an unarmed American tourist and wounding 11 others before being killed by police, is a "martyr" according to the scumcrumpets of the Palestinian media.

The Palestinian Authority's official TV network reported on the Muslim attacker, Bashar Masalha, who received a burial described as "a large national wedding befitting of martyrs." This refers to the 72 virgin goats these animals get when they die for Islam.

And that is exactly what attacks on Jews is all about--killing and dying for the teachings of the Koran.

Taylor Force, a 28-year-old West Point graduate and veteran of Afghanistan and Iraq was the American victim of the coward--he was studying for his MBA.

The PA official daily newspaper, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, referred to Masalha a "martyr" on Saturday as well. And merely one day after the attack on March 8th, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party called Masalha a "heroic martyr."

But they teach the little leftists in our schools that Israel is the villain.

They buried the murderer in the West Band village of Hajja in a "cemetery for martyrs," Palestinian TV reported.

They should have buried the body in a lime pit.
