Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) National President Morton A. Klein released the following statement:
Appeasing Arab terror always begets more terror. But in the aftermath of Palestinian Arab terror, hostile-to-Israel administrations often imperiously demand that the Jewish victims must appease the Palestinian Arab terrorists and terror regimes. During the British Mandate in the 1920s-1940s, when Arabs slaughtered hundreds of Jews in pogroms in Hebron, Jerusalem, Tiberias and elsewhere, the British Mandatory government did not crack down or restrict the bloodthirsty Arab terrorists. Instead, the British Mandatory government restricted Jews’ immigration rights (thereby allowing millions of Jews to be murdered in the holocaust) and even restricted Jews’ rights to blow the shofar at the Western Wall.
The Biden administration is following the same unconscionable pattern of demanding concessions from the Jewish victims, instead of cracking down on the Arab perpetrators and the Palestinian Arab terrorist dictatorship (that pays and incites Arabs to murder Jews,) right after Arab terrorists massacred seven Jews at synagogue and injured seven other Jews, and after Palestinian Arabs spent the last week joyfully celebrating (!) (with fireworks, dancing in the streets and handing out sweets,) the massacre of innocent synagogue-going Jews.
The only sensible responses to Palestinian Arabs’ inhumane genocidal antisemitic terror are to stop U.S. funding of the Palestinian Arabs; to demand that the Palestinian Authority must end its huge reward payments incentivizing terrorists to murder Jews; to demand that the PA must end its constant glorification of Arab terrorists in schools, public spaces and the media; to fully support Israel’s counterterror operations; to allow Jews to speedily build in the Jewish homelands of Judea/Samaria; and to finally move forward with long-delayed removal of over 70,000 illegal Arab structures on Jewish-owned land that endanger Israel’s security and sovereignty. (Former NYC mayor Ed Koch urged that Israel build a new Jewish community after each Arab terror attack.)
But the Biden administration is doing the opposite of what a rational government that legitimately seeks to end terror would do. The administration refused to stop its $1.5 billion of funding to the Palestinian Arabs (partly funneled to Hamas-infested UNRWA) and failed to insist that the PA must end its “pay to slay” payments and glorification of terrorists.
