(Newsday) Ted R. Bromund - The General Assembly of Interpol is meeting in Bali, Indonesia, where the Palestinian Authority is seeking admission to the worldwide federation of law enforcement agencies. Interpol's job is to administer databases of wanted notices from police agencies around the world. But letting the Palestinians in would be a serious mistake. The Palestinians aren't seeking admission to Interpol because they want to support it. They want to join because it is a cheap way to win a legitimacy they do not deserve on their merits. And if they can use Interpol to persecute a few supporters of Israel, that would be a bonus. Giving the Palestinians rewards they do not deserve only incentivizes them to keep on governing badly. We should stand on our principles, and vote against giving the Authority the opportunity to join the parade of dictatorships that already abuse Interpol.
