Israeli Taxpayer Money Rewarding Terror

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, an interview with Maurice Hirsch, Head of legal strategies at Palestinian Media Watch, who is outraged at Israel’s decision to “loan” the PA $800 million due to their claim that as a result of Corona, they are on the verge of collapse. Hirsch says that the payment fundamentally undermines the war on terror, as the PA has shown time and time again, that the funding they receive from international sources is diverted towards their “pay to slay” program, which awards terrorists and their families for carrying out attacks against Israelis.

PA Spending Billions to Fund Terror

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten an interview with Maurice Hirsch head of legal strategies at Palestinian Media Watch (PMW). Hirsch discusses a new PMW report showing how the Palestinian Authority spent at least 7 billion NIS between 2011-2018 on funding terror organizations bent on Israel’s destruction. Hirsch clarifies that these funds are separate from the money the PA uses to finance it’s “pay for slay” program offering incentives and rewards to Arab terrorists and their families.

Time to Kill Terrorists

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, an interview with Col. (res) Maurice Hirsch who is the head of legal strategies for the Palestinian Media Watch organization. In his latest column featured on the Mida news magazine website, Hirsch argues that instead of targeting empty buildings, Israel should be targeting the Hamas terrorists themselves. Hirsch is worried that Israel’s response to rocket attacks, which includes giving prior warnings before attacking strategic targets thus allowing the terrorists to flee, shows that unfortunately “Israel’s leaders, together with the IDF, have lost the desire to defend Israel’s sovereignty and defeat its enemies.” A sad state of affairs indeed.
