US: Why should we fund PA hospitals, when Abbas diverts money to pay terrorists?
[IsraelTimes] State Department defends its defunding of Paleostinian Jerusalem hospitals by noting that the PA intends to give monthly stipend to family of terrorist who killed US-born Ari Fuld.

The White House has indicated those funds will remain withheld until the Paleostinians re-engage with the administration to broker a comprehensive Israeli-Paleostinian peace deal.

According to the Israeli Defense Ministry, the PA in 2017 paid NIS 687 million ($198 million) to the so-called "deaders’ families fund" and NIS 550 million ($160 million) to the Paleostinian Prisoners’ Club ‐ some 7 percent of its overall budget.

Paleostinian prisoners serving 20- to 30-year sentences for carrying out terror attacks are eligible for a lifetime NIS 10,000 ($2,772) monthly stipend, the Defense Ministry said, citing PA figures. Those prisoners who receive a three- to five-year sentence get a monthly wage of NIS 2,000 ($554). Paleostinian prisoners who are married, have children, live in Jerusalem, or hold Israeli citizenship receive additional payments.

#1 Money is fungible.

As long as the PA funds and thus incentivizes terrorism any payment to the PA objectively funds and thus incentivizes terrorism.

The PA should receive zero aid as long they keep up this outrage.
