End Funding of Palestinian Terror
(RealClearWorld) Thomas Trask and Sander Gerber - The Taylor Force Act became law six months ago, and by now the State Department should have sent several unclassified reports to Congress detailing the pay-for-slay program, PA laws supporting it, and U.S. and UN efforts to inform allies how the PA uses foreign aid money. In cutting aid to the Palestinian Authority, the administration is showing the Palestinian leadership that actions have consequences. What's missing now is enforcement of the Taylor Force Act and a strong public case by the administration explaining that the U.S. must get out of the business of inadvertently funding Palestinian terror, hate and corruption in the West Bank and Gaza. Lt. Gen. Thomas Trask, USAF (ret.), is former Vice Commander of U.S. Special Operations Command and a member of the Jewish Institute for National Security of America's (JINSA) Board of Advisors. Mr. Gerber is a Distinguished Fellow with JINSA's Gemunder Center for Defense and Strategy.
