(Palestinian Media Watch) Lt.-Col. (res.) Maurice Hirsch - While the Palestinian Authority constantly complains about its financial difficulties, a look at the PA's own financial records for 2011-2018 shows that the PA transferred 7 billion shekels to the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), some of which was then given to terrorist organizations such as the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). While international donors have demanded that the PA show financial transparency, the PLO is not subject to any such demands. In that same period, the PA also spent 440 million shekels to fund non-functioning institutions. The PA Parliament has not met since the last elections in 2006. However, PA financial records show that for the years 2011-2018 the PA spent 104,566,000 shekels on its Central Election Committee and 336,746,000 shekels on the PA Legislative Council. The writer served for 19 years in the IDF Military Advocate General Corps, including as Director of the Military Prosecution in Judea and Samaria.2019-11-05 00:00:00Full Article
