PA Wants to Kill Palestinians Who Do Business with Jews

(Hudson Institute-New York) Khaled Abu Toameh - A Palestinian Authority court in the West Bank has just reaffirmed the death penalty for Palestinians convicted of selling land to Jews. The court ruling also proves that, contrary to claims by some in Washington and Europe, the PA is continuing to send messages that radicalize Palestinians and promote hatred and violence. If anything, the court verdict is seen by many Palestinians as a green light to kill "traitors" who do business with Jews. The Palestinian law also calls for imposing the death sentence on any Palestinian found guilty of "collaboration" with Israel. Over the past few decades, hundreds, if not thousands, of Palestinians have been killed on suspicion of selling land to Jews and "collaboration" with Israel. Only a few of the victims were executed by Palestinian authorities. Most were abducted and liquidated, often brutally, in extra-judicial killings carried out by Palestinian security officers, armed gangs, and Fatah and Hamas militiamen.
