Greenblatt: PA Can Pay for Health Care But Prefers to Pay Terrorists
(Israel Hayom) Erez Linn - U.S. Special Representative for International Negotiations Jason Greenblatt shared a Palestinian Media Watch report on Twitter showing how PA officials were receiving medical care in Israel while the Palestinian Authority was depriving its own citizens of the same right. Greenblatt explained to Israel Hayom: "Despite the Palestinian Authority's refusal to pay the health care bills of its own people, members of its senior leadership - even individuals who have threatened terror attacks on Israel - continue to receive treatment in Israeli hospitals. This just goes to show the hypocrisy of the Palestinian Authority's position. Senior Palestinian officials and terrorists are taken care of, while ordinary Palestinians are put at risk. Anyone seeking to blame the United States for this situation needs to review the facts."
