Hotovely says PA donors indirectly supporting terror

Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely responds to the Shin Bet’s assessment that the Otniel killer was motivated by Palestinian television shows.

“The Shin Bet proved there is a direct connection between incitement and the atrocities and terror we have witnessed recently,” she says in a statement. “The world must be held accountable for the hundreds of millions of dollars that go to the Palestinian Authority. This money goes to incitement, this money motivates terror. This is what I tell those heads of state that funnel millions to the PA. Check where the money goes.”
