Netanyahu: PA Refusing to Condemn Murder of Israeli Border Policewoman


(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday: "I would like to send condolences from the depths of my heart to the family of Border Police fighter, the late Hadas Malka. Their grief is our grief; their sorrow is that of the entire nation. Hadas was a young person full of life. She was imbued with a sense of mission of defending the State of Israel." "Instead of condemning the attack, Fatah - which is headed by Abu Mazen [Mahmoud Abbas] - issued a statement in which it condemn the Border Police fighters who killed the terrorists, and praised the murderers as heroes....Of course, the Palestinian Authority is refusing to condemn the murder and the same authority will now pay financial compensation to the murderers' families." "I call on the countries of the world to condemn both the murder and those who praise it, and demand the immediate cessation of Palestinian Authority payments to the families of terrorists, something that only encourages terror."
