Why would Israel be expected to send money to the terrorists who attacked them and are still holding hostages? Or is this just trying to feed into that old trope of Jews controlling the world?

Under the terms of a deal reached in the 1990s, Israel collects tax on behalf of the Palestinians and makes monthly transfers to the PA pending the approval of the Ministry of Finance.

Imagine reading the article instead of throwing out the cliche antisemitism as an excuse. Instead you’re a racist who calls every Palestinian a terrorist.
