The Palestinian Authority, Still Celebrating Terrorism
(Commentary) Noah Pollak - The Israeli government has begun to compile an "incitement index," measuring recent official Palestinian celebrations of terrorism, such as naming a town square in honor of Dalal Mughrabi, a leader of the Coastal Road Massacre in 1978, in which close to 40 Israeli civilians were burned alive in a hijacked bus; or holding a soccer tournament in honor of Wafa Idris, a Fatah suicide bomber who used a Palestinian ambulance to enter Israel. The index documents the incontrovertible fact that the Palestinian Authority is very much still in the terrorism game - all while funded by the U.S. and European governments. Isn't it time for Congress to hold hearings on the use of U.S. funds by the Palestinian Authority to promote terrorism?
