JERUSALEM, Israel – Palestinian Authority officials claim they are dropping the "pay to slay" policy whereby convicted terrorists who were recently released in the ceasefire-hostage deal with Hamas received millions of dollars for killing Israelis.
Israelis are highly skeptical after Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas signed a decree earlier this week eliminating the practice of financially rewarding terrorism. CBN News talked with Itamar Marcus, director of Palestinian Media Watch. His organization monitors Palestinian television, newspapers, and social media to learn what the Palestinian leadership is saying to its people.
Marcus also discusses a recent call for genocide by a Palestinian cleric.
