Netanyahu lauds US law on Palestinian terrorist subsidies
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is praising the US government for passing a law that suspends some financial aid to the Palestinians over the Palestinian Authority’s stipends to terrorists and terror suspects jailed in Israel as well as families of Palestinian assailants killed during their attacks.
The Taylor Force Act, named after an American killed in Israel by a Palestinian terrorist in 2016, was folded into a $1.3 trillion spending bill signed by US President Donald Trump.
On Sunday, Netanyahu calls the law a “powerful signal by the US that changes the rules” by cutting “hundreds of millions of dollars for the Palestinian Authority that they invest in encouraging terrorism.”
