Where is that money coming from? From, among other sources, American taxpayers, thanks to Joe Biden’s handlers.
“Palestinian Authority pays $42,000 to family of terrorist who killed 2 Israelis,” Times of Israel, June 7, 2021 (thanks to the Geller Report):
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Sunday ordered that the family of a Palestinian terrorist who murdered two Israelis be paid more than $40,000 and be given new housing, the Kan public broadcaster reported.
Ramallah Governor Laila Ghannam, an Abbas appointee, met with the family of Muhannad Halabi and gave them some 30,000 Jordanian Dinars ($42,000), reportedly to help them cover housing costs since their home was destroyed by the IDF following the killings, Kan said.
Ghannam also told the family that Abbas had instructed his security services to help them find permanent housing. Home demolitions are a controversial policy that the IDF says helps deter future terror attacks.
The payments are the first high-profile payments to terrorist families since the Biden administration took office, despite claims that the Palestinians were willing to rethink the controversial policy as part of an effort to improve relations with Washington.
Halabi killed two Israelis, Rabbi Nehemiah Lavi and Aharon Banita, and injured Banita’s wife, Adele, and their 2-year-old son in a stabbing attack in the Old City of Jerusalem on October 3, 2015.
He was shot and killed by Israeli security forces.
Ahead of Biden’s inauguration, senior Palestinian officials told The Times of Israel that Ramallah was willing to alter the way it pays stipends to Palestinian security prisoners, as well as the families of terrorists and others killed by Israelis, in a bid to improve ties with Washington and Europe.
Because the PA hands out more money for longer sentences in Israeli prisons, those incarcerated for the most brutal terror attacks receive more funding from Ramallah….
Ramallah may have paid as much as NIS 600 million ($181 million) in 2020 in salaries to Palestinians imprisoned by Israel for security offenses — including terrorism — and their families….
Kepha says
How strange. It seems there was less terrorism in ‘Eretz Yisroel back when Trump had turned off the $$$$ to the PA. This says a lot about “Palestinian” priorities.

True, Kepha.

The Muslims in the story about Nigeria want their tax money. Why doesn’t Israel tax this money being given to the families of terrorists … at about 100% – or do these people now live outside of Israel? I don’t understand.

……………
And, as noted, some of this money for the murder of our Israeli allies is coming from American taxpayers–of which I am one.
Biden has acknowledged that some of this money is going to go to terrorism–and he does not care.

Joe Biden and and his good friend Abbas Mahnoud are both despicable villains who have much in common. The only major difference between them is that Abbas ,most ,likely , has a a higher intelligence level than feeble minded old Joe . Nevertheless they both anti- American and anti-Israel so they still do,in their evil ways make a very fitting match . They truly deserves each other.
It is even written in the Bible “”Can two walk together ,except they be agreed ?” Amos 3:3. [K.J.V.]
Walter Sieruk says
That feeble-minded US President impostor Joe Biden is not much more than a useful idiot by Abbas to obtain American tax payer money to to encourage and fund Islamic terrorism.
This President pretender Biden is just continuing the terribly wicked international polices of his former boss, Obama.. Therefore Biden isn’t just a feeble-minded idiot , he’s a dangerous feeble-minded idiot.
OLD GUY says
There has got to be some way to get our American government to stop giving our tax money to these thugs. Small town America could sure use the money to improve our life rather than people who hate us and want to kill us. For some reason that I don’t understand our politicians sure like to give our money to these foreign leaders, makes me wonder about kickbacks to off shore banks.
