Riyadh has presented Washington with a plan to oversee comprehensive change within the Palestinian Authority.

However unreasonable and unfathomable it might seem, by Western democratic standards, Hamas is the legitimate leader of the Palestinian Authority.

European Union representatives confronted PA officials with evidence they continue to transfer funds to terrorists.

The PA should be replaced by a civilian administrative body that “does not seek to annihilate the State of Israel,” said the Israeli Finance Minister.

If the international community is genuine in its desire to provide aid to Palestinians and not to further line the corrupt Palestinian Authority officials’ pockets, it should reconsider the manner in which the aid is provided.

The Authority’s “weakness” means not only that it can’t disarm Hamas but that “Israel is left to dismantle the terror networks they refuse to confront” in Judea and Samaria, the Israeli envoy said.

The P.A. attempted to mask the fact that it is still making payments to terrorists after announcing it was stopping the practice last month, according to Palestinian Media Watch.

“The Palestinian Authority ensures that it very much pays to slay,” said Palestinian Media Watch.

“It is important that everyone out there who helps Israel in various ways knows that, when the time comes, Israel will assist them,” the victims’ attorneys said.
