PA paying convicted murderers imprisoned by Israel
Good to know the funds are going in a direction some of the donors would approve of.
[IsraelTimes] Hundreds of thousands of dollars given to Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, Death Eaters serving multiple life sentences, report says

Official Paleostinian government documents published by Israel Radio on Tuesday confirmed hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments to prisoners convicted in some of the deadliest attacks on Israelis.

The report came after days of violent festivities and repeated Israeli accusations of Paleostinian incitement to violence.

Israel Radio said the documents reveal that hefty sums have been given to murderers serving out multiple life sentences in Israeli prisons.

Individuals who received funds from the Paleostinian Authority include members of the PA security forces who were implicated in terrorist attacks against Israelis during the Second Intifada, as well as senior Hamas members serving time in Israeli prisons.

Abdullah Barghouti, a Hamas commander and bomb-maker serving 67 life terms for his involvement in several terror attacks, including the bombing of the Sbarro restaurant in Jerusalem in August 2001 that killed 15 Israelis and maimed some 130, received over NIS 250,000 ($64,000) from the Paleostinian Authority, the report said.

Paleostinians have long acknowledged paying support to the families of prisoners held by Israel, but payments made personally to prisoners convicted in deadly attacks have never been made public.

Ashraf al-Ajrami, a former Paleostinian minister for prisoners affairs, confirmed the report, saying the prisoners are "heroes" and the money is for their families.
