PMW: United States Paying Salaries of Palestinian Terrorists

"The US funds the PA’s general budget," the document reads. "Through the PA budget the US is paying the salaries of terrorist murderers in prison and funding the glorification and role modeling of terrorists."

The report said the average monthly salary for terrorist prisoners is NIS 3,129 a month, more than the average monthly wage for a PA civil servant, According to the report, the payments are dependent on foreign funding and the PA law governing the payments stipulates that they "will be implemented... on the basis of available sources of funding" The US provided some $600 million to the PA in 2010, including $225 in direct budgetary assistance to the PA.

The report from Palestinian Media Watch, an Israeli-based organization that monitors the Palestinian media and culture, said that more than 5,500 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails are getting salaries from the PA. Though Palestinians held by Israel on charges of terrorism have always received stipends from the PA, the practice was formalized this past April when a new law to that effect was promulgated. The law was reported in the Palestinian official press but went unnoticed by the international media. Given that the United States gives more than $600 million to the Palestinians each year, including $225 million that goes directly to the PA, the payment of these salaries is a violation of U.S. law.
