| [Jpost] PA paid NIS 517.4m. on these salaries in 2019, some NIS 15m. more than previous year Israel plans to effectively return the tax and tariff funds deducted due to the Paleostinian Authority’s continued monthly payments to A spokeswoman for Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon confirmed on Friday that he will sign an agreement with his Paleostinian counterpart on Sunday. A report in Israel Hayom cited court documents in which Kahlon stated that, with approval from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and in coordination with Defense Minister Naftali Bennett and National Security Council chief Meir Ben-Shabbat, Israel will grant the loan over the coming months. The loan is essentially an advance on tax funds Israel collects and transfers to the PA under the terms of the Oslo Accords. The loan is meant to help the PA overcome its current economic crisis, which was deepened due to what has been nicknamed the "Pay for Slay Law" that went into effect at the start of 2019, by which Israel deducts the funds the Paleostinian Authority pays Since the law went into effect, Israel has deducted over NIS 700m., all of which and more will be returned in the form of the loan.The PA paid NIS 517.4m. on these salaries in 2019, an increase of more than NIS 15m. from the previous year. A February poll of Paleostinians in the West Bank, conducted by the Washington Institute, found that 68% of them agree with the following statement: "The PA should stop special payments to prisoners and give prisoners’ families normal social benefits like everybody else, not extra payments based on their sentences or armed operations." Last year, only 43% agreed; the shift could be due to the PA slashing its workers’ salaries while keeping the full terrorist payments intact. In Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... , where Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,, not the PA, has control, only 37% agree with the statement; 50% agreed last year. |
