Western Countries Have Funded Palestinian Hostility toward Israel for Decades


(Ynet News) Ben-Dror Yemini - Before we criticize Trump's Gaza Plan, we must also condemn Western countries which, for decades, have financed the Palestinian terrorists' ideology. They have funded the Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA and supported Palestinian NGOs that promote the destruction of Israel through the "right of return." For decades, the Western approach toward the Palestinians has been one of dangerous appeasement that only fuels radicalization and obstinacy. The Palestinians have rejected every proposal unless it calls for the elimination of Israel - that is, the "right of return." The two-state solution is irrelevant as long as it is clear, with high probability, that any Palestinian state will become an Iranian outpost or a Qatari branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. Change is possible; it has already occurred in parts of the Arab world such as the UAE, Morocco, and Saudi Arabia. There is a direct correlation between changes in textbooks in some Arab countries and an increased willingness to reconcile with Israel. Not a single dollar should go to the Palestinian Authority as long as hate is being taught. Not a single dollar to NGOs that support BDS. Anyone who wants peace must begin by fostering an atmosphere of reconciliation.
