Wiesenthal Center: Jury’s Award to PLO’s Victims Opens New Front in War Against Terrorism
The Simon Wiesenthal Center hailed today’s decision by a jury to award $218.5 million to American victims of Palestinian terrorism.
Following today’s murder of an American Jew, the Simon Wiesenthal Center reiterated its demand over the Palestinian Authorities “payto slay” policy.
“American taxpayer dollars continue to go to the corrupt Palestinian Authority that continues to promote murdering innocentIsraelis," stated Rabbi Abraham Cooper, Associate Dean and Director of Global Social Action for the Wiesenthal Center.
"One phone call from Secretary of State Antony Blinken andhis counterparts in the U.K, France, Germany and Japan can force an end to this barbaric anti-Semitic policy. How many more have to die?," Cooper added.
The US must demand that the PA rescind the law it passed that financially rewards terrorists and their families for murdering andmaiming Jews.
