An Israeli Arab stabbed two Israelis Wednesday in the city of Karmiel, murdering one and seriously wounding another.
The Palestinian Authority (PA) rewards the families of Palestinian terrorists who are killed while perpetrating their crimes with a 6,000-shekel one-time reward, and 1,400 shekels monthly for life.
Since the terrorist who committed the attack yesterday was an Israeli Arab, the PA will provide his family with that amount plus 21% — for a total of 1,700 shekels a month for life.
Palestinian Media Watch exposed the Palestinians’ “Pay-for-Slay” program in 2011, and the world has condemned it ever since.
Despite this, PA leader Mahmoud Abbas has said dozens of times (and PA television has broadcast this) that even if the PA has one penny left, it will continue to pay prisoners and Martyrs.
This is what the Palestinian government believes should happen to those who murder Jews: financial rewards.
Meanwhile, any Israeli who knowingly attacks a Palestinian civilian is directed to be jailed under Israeli law.
The two sides are not equivalent. Israel venerates justice, and peace for all. The Palestinians seek the death of Jews, and the government pays them for it.
