Israel is making good on threats to strike back at the PA (Palestinian Authority) following their successful bid to the UN General Assembly, seeking non-member observer status.
Finance Minister Dr. Yuval Shteinitz announced on Sunday 18 Kislev 5773 that Israel is withholding 450 million NIS in tax revenue funds heading to the PA towards knocking down the PA’s debt to Israel. The PA owes Israel Electric Company 800 million NIS in addition to other debts amounting to over 1 billion NIS.

What kind of sick thing is this that Israel continues providing electric to them when they owe such huge sums of money?? Basic business doctrines dictate, you don’t pay, you don’t get serviced. Find me another country that would put up with this!
Palestinians are treated better than Sandy victims!!!
