Biden and Co. keep funding Palestinian terror — in defiance of Congress

[NYPOST] US Permanent Representative to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield rightly condemned in a recent speech Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas

With no sense of the irony, she then called for foreign aid to the very same PA he continues to lead, 18 years into his four-year term.

An even more distressing irony: President Joe The Big Guy Biden

recently launched a first-ever National Strategy To Counter Antisemitism amid a spike in Jew-hatred, yet at the same time — in defiance of Congress’ intent — his team continues to provide material support for the PA, even as it not only spouts antisemitic speech but funds anti-Jewish terrorism through its "pay-for-slay" program.

Congress clearly determined that PA terror payments encourage violence, which is why it passed the Taylor Force Act, barring economic assistance that "directly benefits the Paleostinian Authority" until it "stops all payments incentivizing terror."

In recent months, the West Bank has seen a spate of fatal Paleostinian terror attacks, with each of the perpetrators and their families then eligible for PA payments.

In 2018, the authority’s refusal to end systematic terror funding led to bipartisan passage of the Taylor Force Act, named for a US citizen and West Point grad murdered by a Paleostinian terrorist in Tel Aviv.
