Fatah vows to pay terrorist murderers at all costs
“Head of the Information Office of the Fatah Movement Mobilization and Organization Commission Munir Al-Jaghoub said that the PA will not accept tax money that is not in full, and this is following Israel’s decision to deduct the salaries of the prisoners and Martyrs (Shahids) from the monthly transfers (refers to Israeli law to deduct terrorist salaries from the PA tax money; see note below –Ed.).
In an exclusive interview with [the Lebanese] Al-Mayadeen [TV] channel, Al-Jaghoub added that Israel is behaving thuggishly with the [Palestinian] people’s money…
He noted that the goal of this thuggery by the occupation is to pressure the State of Palestine, politically blackmail it, and subdue it. He emphasized: ‘We will not submit to the plan of the US and the Americans, and we will continue to demand our full rights.’ Al-Jaghoub added: ‘Even if we are left with 10 [Israeli] shekels, we will divide them with our prisoners and our Martyrs. We will not abandon them and will continue to pay the allowances.’
He emphasized that he will work to encourage the popular resistance, and particularly the boycott of the occupation’s goods and the confrontations with it in all spheres, in addition to the continued pressure through a demand to open the case of the Paris Financial Agreement (see note below –Ed.) by cancelling or amending it, and a reexamination of all of the agreements with the occupation.”
