Fox News reports that the Bush administration has approved $20 million in direct aid to help the Palestinian Authority as it prepares for Jan. 9 presidential elections to replace Yasser Arafat. To provide this aid, the administration had to waive legal restrictions its ability to do so. Does this mean that the Arafat cronies now in control of the PA have reformed their corrupt practices and/or softened their position towards Israel? Not a chance. It means that, as a result of massive theft and corruption, the PA can’t pay its bills. Thus, the PA apparently is entitled to a corporate bailout for terrorists.
