Headline: PLO Admits it Can't Pay Fine in NY Terror Lawsuit
by Ari Yashar
In response to a groundbreaking New York court ruling last week finding that the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and Palestinian Authority (PA) are liable for terrorist attacks during the PA terror campaign of 2000-2005, the PLO has admitted it can't pay the damages…
PLO Executive Committee member Hanan Ashrawi admitted last Tuesday that "the PA and the (Palestinian Liberation) Organization lack the funds necessary to pay these compensations or fines," as translated and revealed by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW)…
PMW unveiled that Issa Karake, PA Parliament Member and director of the Commission of Prisoners, said last month that the ruling "sets a dangerous precedent that contradicts international law," opining that it is "forbidden to deal with or appear before these courts, since their objective is to harm the PLO's standing."
(PMW Ed. Note: Palestinian Media Watch's documentation of the PA leadership's conduct during the period in question and later statements by PA leaders was a vital part of the prosecution's preparation for the case.)
