ABBAS APPROVES PAYMENTS TO "MARTYR" FAMILIES



Suicide bomber murders five and injures dozens at Israeli shopping mall in Natanya. Mahmoud Abbas calls it an act of terror and promises to prosecute the guilty:

This operation against civilians causes the most serious harm to our commitment to the peace process and the Palestinian Authority will not go easy on whoever is found to be responsible for this operation.

This week, he approved the budget designed to take care of families of such terrorists to whom the PA refers to in official documents as Shahids, i.e.,"martyrs." Each family will get $250 a month from the PA. Married ones get an extra $50 and children $25 per child. All in all, $11,000,000 will be paid by these official terror paymasters to the families of men they supposedly condemn. Of course, these families receive additional sums from" charities."

In other words, the Janus faced PA has not changed one iota. It condemns terror in English and praises"martyr operations" in official Arabic documents.

PA compensation to the victims of these terrorists - 0.
