The reports did not identify the recipients of the grant or its amount, but the purpose was clear.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Service Director in Jenin Adnan Abu Aisheh said that the message of the service, under the instructions of its leader, Majed Faraj, is to emphasize what President Mahmoud Abbas has said again and again\u2014that if we are left with one penny, it will be paid to the families of the martyrs and the prisoners,&#8221; reported the PA&#8217;s WAFA news agency and <em>Al-Hayat Al-Jadida<\/em> daily.<\/p>\n<p>The grant is the latest blow to President Joe Biden&#8217;s nascent peace plan, which involves empowering a &#8220;revitalized&#8221; PA to govern a future Palestinian state that can coexist alongside Israel. Officials in the Biden administration have demanded that the PA be reformed and then given administrative control over Gaza following Israel&#8217;s war against Hamas, the rival Palestinian faction that rules the territory.<\/p>\n<p>But since Hamas&#8217;s Oct. 7 terror attack, which sparked the Gaza war, the PA has avoided condemning the atrocities of that day and has doubled down on its longstanding policy of paying generous salaries to terrorists and their families. The PA has <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/national-security\/palestinian-authority-key-to-bidens-mideast-peace-plan-commits-to-pay-97m-a-year-to-hamas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">committed<\/a> to expanding the &#8220;pay for slay&#8221; annual budget by tens of millions of dollars to cover Palestinians who were killed or captured while carrying out Oct. 7 atrocities and the resulting war.<\/p>\n<p>At least two ministers in the new U.S.-approved PA government have <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/national-security\/biden-admin-hails-revitalized-palestinian-authority-but-new-ministers-support-murder-of-jews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">advocated<\/a> terrorism against Jews, and a Palestinian official who oversees &#8220;pay for slay&#8221; has explicitly <a href=\"https:\/\/palwatch.org\/page\/35052\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rejected<\/a> Biden officials&#8217; claims that the authority is poised to significantly reform the program.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The United States is undermining its own goals by funding the PA,&#8221; Itamar Marcus, the director of Palestinian Media Watch, an Israeli watchdog group that <a href=\"https:\/\/palwatch.org\/page\/35071\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">flagged<\/a> the grant,\u00a0told the <em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em>. &#8220;And when you look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/chicago-gas-stations-partnering-with-armed-security-to-protect-customers-amid-carjacking-epidemic\/\" title=\"Chicago Gas Stations Partnering With Armed Security To Protect Customers Amid \u2018Carjacking Epidemic\u2019\">security services<\/a>, you see the perfect example.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Marcus noted that U.S. funding of the PA security services\u2014reinstated by Biden after being nixed by former president Donald Trump\u2014helped pay not only for the grant but also for arming and training the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/msnbc-and-cnn-admit-we-need-to-be-more-fair-to-donald-trump-and-the-republicans\/\" title=\"MSNBC And CNN Admit: We Need To Be \u2018More Fair\u2019 To \u2018Donald Trump And The Republicans\u2019\">intelligence agents<\/a> who carried out the attacks for which their families were rewarded.
