Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Palestinian Authority spends six times more on jihad terrorists than it does on its own needy

Jan 19, 2019 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

So if there really are any “Palestinians” who are starving, it isn’t Israel’s doing.

“PA spends 6 times more on terrorists than on its own needy,” by Maurice Hirsch, Palestinian Media Watch, January 17, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

In its 2017 budget, the Palestinian Authority allocated 550 million shekels to pay salaries to terrorist prisoners and released terrorist prisoners. The salaries paid to these recipients, among them murderers, ranged from 1,400 shekels/month to 12,000 shekels/month. The beneficiaries of these payments are no more than a few tens of thousands of Palestinians.

In contrast, the PA spent only 605 million to provide financial assistance to needy Palestinian families. According to the PA budget, the 118,000 needy families received payments ranging between 750 to 1,800 shekels/quarter.

Of the 605 million shekel expenditure, 515 million shekels was funded by the international community (165 million shekels by the European Union, and 350 million shekels by the World Bank). As such, the PA contributed only 90 million shekels of the 604 million shekel expenditure.

In other words, while the PA spent 550 million shekels of its budget a year to incentivize and reward terrorists no more the a few tens of thousands of terrorists, it spends only 90 million shekels to support its needy population. In comparison, the amount it spent on the needy equals only 16% of the amount the PA prefers to spend on rewards for terror and murder!…

    Even Muslims in other countries know that the starving Paleophillistines are used as a propaganda tool to whip up hate against Israel and the West by Muslim governments. Orwell meets Mohammad.

      The Pallies are NOT starving. They are among the FATTEST PEOPLE ON EARTH.

        I should have put starving in quotation marks. Yeah, most of the Paleophillistines would fit right into the Primus video Mud.

        True, Mortimer. I believe they are ranked as the 4th fattest population in the world.

    Follow the money! And we find that the PA spends its money mainly on terrorism.

    WHO’S STARVING? Not the OBESE PALLIES !!!! No way!

    Overweight and Obesity among Palestinian Adults: Analyses of the Anthropometric Data from the First National Health and Nutrition Survey (1999-2000)
    https://www.hindawi.com/journals/jobe/2012/213547/

    Quoted from Abstract: “A random representative sample of 3617 adults aged 18–64 years was collected between October 1999 and October 2000. Results. The prevalence of overweight was 35.5% in women and 40.3% in men, obesity was 31.5% in women and 17.5% in men. Adults aged 45–54 years old were significantly more likely to be obese (29.2% in men and 50.2% in women) or overweight (48.1% in men and 37.2% in women). When compared with women, men showed significantly more normal BMI level (40.5% versus 31.6%; 𝑃 < 0 . 0 5 ). Cut-off points for a high waist circumference and high waist-to-hip ratio identified 57.8% and 47.2% of the population, respectively, to be at an increased and high risk for cardiovascular disease. Sociodemographic factors (age, sex, educational level, and marital status) were also found to be significantly related to BMI. Conclusion. Obesity and overweight are ENORMOUS PUBLIC HEALTHE PROBLEMS in Palestine. Population-based research at the national level to investigate the social and cultural factors associated with HIGH PREVALENCE OF OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY among Palestinian adults should be implemented."

      Those figures are from 18 years ago! The average Palestinian is going hungry and getting the crap bombed out of them by Israel in retaliation for what Hammas are getting the brainwash plebs to do.
      All the while the “leadership” sit in flash houses in European cities and bleat to the world about how evil the jews are.
      A bit of common sense here! The population is being manipulated and gutted by Hammas for their own grubby purposes.

    Go XE.com for the money rates for Israeli Shekels as used in Palestine.
    Those criminals are doing OK. £2500 per month is good money anywhere and especially so there.
    I could change profession from total loser to terrorist and be set up for life.

      Thanks, Paul. And that’s $3225 in US dollars. Yes–good money, paid for doing evil.

    ………………

    This should surprise no one.

    It is the same with Zakat–often translated as “charity”–that is more apt to fund violent Jihad than to care for the hungry or sick.
