(Newsweek) Joseph Epstein - The Palestinian Authority has proven too ideologically extreme and inept to govern the West Bank, much less Gaza. It spreads the same radical, revolutionary ideology as Hamas and is unpopular among Palestinians due to its crippling level of corruption. A recent poll found just 17% of Palestinians are satisfied with the rule of PA President Mahmoud Abbas and 63% believe the PA is a burden on the Palestinian people. Abbas' sons, Tareq and Yasser, own a business empire worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Over two decades, the PA has doled out millions to the families of convicted terrorists, including those who have killed Americans. PA-run schools, summer camps and children's TV programs promote antisemitism and indoctrinate Palestinian children against Israel, encouraging martyrdom. After Oct. 7, eight PA-run schools celebrated with speeches, statements, and arts and crafts displays. Jibril Rajoub, the Fatah Central Committee chairman, called on all Palestinians to join Hamas in battle against Israel and even threatened another Oct. 7 in the West Bank.2023-12-22 00:00:00Full Article
