Aren’t you glad that the U.S. is pumping millions of dollars into the Palestinian Authority?
As of May 2011, the Palestinian Authority spent $4.5 million per month on compensating Palestinian inmates in Israeli prisons and a further $6.5 million on payments to families of suicide bombers, Israel’s Channel 2 TV reported on Monday.
Last year, Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad tripled their monthly pay.
The PA-funded salaries equally benefit members of Fatah, Hamas, and Islamic Jihad, as well as Israeli Arabs jailed for security offenses.
To take one example, Hamas terrorist Abbas al-Sayyeed, convicted of planning the 2002 Park Hotel massacre in which 30 Israeli civilians were killed, is paid $3,000 per month by the PA.
At least American taxpayers know where their money is going.

Vote on the upcoming election.
The US govt (together with the EU, UN – and most probably also the Israeli govt) are all committing an ongoing felony of providing material support to terrorists in the most literal and basic sense. I guess that’s what the word ‘peace’ means these days..
Why cant the families of the victims levy on these funds?
