PA Paid $70 Million to Terrorists Freed in Hostage Deal

(JNS) David Isaac - In the context of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire, Israel released 250 Palestinian terrorists who were serving at least one life sentence for murder. Some 160 of them were paid over 1 million shekels during their imprisonment, according to Palestinian Media Watch. These terrorists collectively received at least 229.5 million shekels ($70 million) from the PA. "The Palestinian Authority ensures that it very much pays to slay," PMW stated. "Any government that spends hundreds of millions of dollars each year rewarding terrorists should be designated for what it is - a terror organization," said PMW founder and director Itamar Marcus. Instead, "many European countries partner with the PA by paying its civil servants' salaries - a scheme that frees up the PA's other funds to pay monthly salaries to imprisoned terrorists."
