(Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Brig.-Gen. (res.) Yossi Kuperwasser - 5,000 terrorists in Israeli jails are getting salaries from the Palestinian Authority. On top of that, 5,500 convicted terrorists that were released from jail are also getting salaries. About 1,200 arrested terrorists that are going to be released during this year are going to get a "release grant." The Palestinian Authority will spend $350 million on incentivizing terrorism in 2018. This is about actually soliciting terror, because this money is promised to the terrorists in advance. They know they're going to get it if they are caught and put in jail. Palestinians say these payments are welfare given to the families left without a breadwinner. But families that need welfare get NIS 750-1,800 a month, whereas the terrorists in jail get much more than that. Those who really committed terrible acts and spend a lot of time in jail get NIS 12,000 a month. They become millionaires. That's the difference between welfare and incentivizing terror. The writer, former head of the IDF Military Intelligence Research Division, is Director of the Project on Regional Middle East Developments at the Jerusalem Center.2018-12-19 00:00:00Full Article
