Abbas vows to continue to pay salaries to jihad terrorists and their families even if “we have only a penny left”

Jul 27, 2018 8:48 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

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.

“Abbas Vows to Use ‘Last Penny’ to Pay Palestinian Terrorists’ Salaries,” by Deborah Danan, Breitbart, July 25, 2018:

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.

In response, Abbas’ spokesman, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, said the move was a “declaration of war.”…

    Abbas pays an incentive for terrorist martyrs. So he pays for terrorism. Doesn’t that make Abbas a terrorist?

    So if another country sends money to the PA and some of that money, besides that skimmed off by Abbas for personal “retirement”, goes to terrorism then isn’t that country aiding terrorism?

      Trudeau gave them over $40 million within a few days of being elected. He has given more since. WE can be sure it is because he is partially controlled by the jihadist Sharia terrorists in the Liberal party.

      Suspiciously, there are way more Muslims in the Liberal Government than their proportion of the general population. None of our Canadian fake “investigative journalists” have ever bothered to find out why so many Muslims were appointed in their ridings. This is yet another indication that the power behind Trudeau, possibly Butts and the Muslims, influence and control Canadian media.

      It is absolutely critical that Jihad Watch, Spencer Fernando and others continue the battle to keep democratic people informed. Please support them.

    The Palestinian Cause is the last dying ember of WW2. It’s a movement founded by one of Hitler’s top Nazis who was both a participant and instigator of the Final Solution. His nephew, Yasser Arafat, took-over the Cause upon the old Nazi’s retirement in the early 1960s.

      Actually, Trump has called the “Palestinians” on their paying money to the families of terrorists, and threatened to cut them off. I hope he does.

    ‘Salaries’ are payments made to employees…That proves that the PA is a terrorist organization…The US should give them nothing…

    If the US continues to pay Palestinians, Abbas is merely the distributor of US taxpayer funds to Jihadis.
    Now, I ask anyone and everyone, one simple question:
    “Has it ever made any sense whatsoever to increase the wealth of one’s enemies at the expense of one’s own wealth?”
    This is as dumb as it gets.
    I have no doubt, the practical, patriotic and common sense President we have now will do all he can to end this absolutely suicidal madness.
    For every dollar paid to Jihadis is a dollar NOT spent on US troops, US education, US job training, US infrastructure and all the rest.
    If we need to pay, we need to pay for solutions, not to perpetuate problems.

    This proves that Jihad terror is the number one priority for the “Palestinians”. *Ugh*.

    Trump Threatens to Deal Another Blow to the Palestinian Cause – By cutting off hundreds of millions in American aid to the Palestinian Authority, the president could radically alter the Middle East.

    Trump freezes aid to Palestinian Authority because they fund terrorists: report JUNE 26, 2018 MELISSA LEON The United States has frozen the funds as part of the Taylor Force Act, legislation that seeks to stop American economic aid to the PA until it ceases to pay stipends funneled through government channels to those who commit acts of terrorism and to the families of deceased terrorists.

    How British and American aid subsidises Palestinian terrorism
    Edwin Black. Opinion, The Guardian – US and UK taxpayers fund the Palestinian Authority, which in turn funds prisoners in Israeli jails. It’s dangerously dysfunctional
