The European Union has not done enough to ensure that its funding to the Palestinian Authority does not support incitement to violence and human rights violations, argues a new study.
“Despite existing anti-terrorism regulations, the EU has not addressed funding by the Palestinian Authority to families of convicted terrorists as well as the persistent issue of incitement to hatred and widespread anti-Semitism in Palestinian textbooks,” write researchers Tommaso Virgili and Paul Stott.
The study was commissioned by B’nai Brith International, a Jewish philanthropic organization that also advocates on behalf of Israel in the United States and abroad.
