PA Continues Pay For Slay Policy Amidst Controversy
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas admitted in a speech that withheld tax funds from Israel would be used to pay Palestinian prisoners, including terrorists. This statement confirms that the PA continues its “pay-for-slay” policy, now disguised as social welfare payments, despite claims to the contrary. The US State Department reported that over $150 million was paid to terrorists and their families last year. This admission by Abbas has significant international implications, challenging Western countries’ justifications for funding the PA and potentially impacting future recognition of a Palestinian state.
