[snip for the introduction]

One of the justifications people have used to support Hillary Clinton vs Donald Trump is she has experience. Just because someone has “experience,” does that mean they deserve to be the most powerful person in the world? Also, one has to evaluate their “experience,” to determine if what they have previously done merits greater responsibility, and reward.

One of the flashpoint issues of the day is terrorism. First off, since Trump has not served in public office, his “experience” with terrorism cannot be evaluated. Yet, he has made his views regarding terror quite clear.

Hillary, on the other hand, has significant experience, which includes serving as Secretary of State from 2009 – 2013.

Hillary, on the other hand, has significant experience, which includes serving as Secretary of State from 2009 – 2013.

One of the official duties in the job description of Secretary of State is “ensures the protection of the US Government to American citizens, property and interests in foreign countries.”

In March 2016 an American, Taylor Force, was murdered by a terrorist while he was visiting Israel. His killer, Basar Masalha, who was killed during the attack, was a member of Hamas. Masalha was praised as a “martyr” by the official PA newspaper Al-Hayat Al Jidada. PA President Mahmoud Abbas was asked to publically condemn the murder. He refused, which is tantamount to implicit support.

What’s the connection between Force’s murder and Hillary Clinton?

Starting in 2003, when a “soldier of Allah” commits murder, or another act of terror his crime provides him with a place of honor. It also entitles him to be paid a salary. The more heinous the crime, the greater the salary. If the murderer dies, or is killed while committing his crime, he becomes known as a “shahid,” or martyr. In this case his family is awarded the financial compensation. Palestinian murderers and/or their families in some cases collect as much as $3,500 per month, which is five times greater than the average family income.

Aside from Hamas, the terrorist can be from numerous groups, including Fatah, the political party of PA President Mahmoud Abbas.

The Palestinian Authority allocates roughly 6% of its budget to reward murderers. Since the Palestinian government is providing compensation, it can easily be defined as state-sponsored terrorism. Yet where are the demands to halt this despicable policy?

While world leaders turn a blind eye to this ‘official’ sanctioning of murder, the same world leaders are often heard roundly criticizing Israel for construction in areas that have long been understood as being part of Israel. Such voices have included Hillary Clinton. While there may be disagreement that said construction is in an acceptable area, how can leader deserving of respect focus on construction, while ignoring outright murder?

Yet, there is more to this story. The Palestinian Authority receives over $1.3 billion aid money from around the world. (2014 figures) The single largest source is the United States which provides $400 million annually. The EU, Saudi Arabia, and UK are second, third, and fourth, respectively in annual support.

This means that during the years 2009 - 2013 while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, she was part of an ongoing U.S. policy of being the majority financial supporter for a government which promotes and rewards murderers of civilians, including Americans. She did nothing to criticize, impede or prevent said policy, which remains ongoing….

What’s the takeaway from this?

Indeed it is true that Hillary Clinton has “experience.” The question begs is the knowledge of and financial support for ongoing murder of innocent lives (which includes Americans) the type of “experience” that justifies electing her president?

The question is, what will Americans say?

Thanks for posting. This article reminds us of the financial incentive for Jihadis and their families. Note the year when this practice formally began - 2003 when the presidnet was member of thr -R branch of the uni-party

Terrorist 'Martyrs' Families to Receive Millions of Dollars
PA government encourages terrorists to trade their lives for their families' financial security - 74 million dollars' worth.
Dalit Halevi, Tova Dvorin, 24/03/14 20:04
....................................................
During the third National Conference for the National Association of Families of Slain Palestinians, Hamdallah stated that the government - in a collaborative effort with the Association - has pledged full financial support for the spouses and children of the terror "martyrs." The money will be pledged for the families to complete schooling and university studies; the pledge is in addition to a monthly salary and free medical care.

The PA has made the pledge despite massive debt, which tops a staggering 4.8 billion dollars.

It is unclear exactly where the money is coming from in light of the debts, but it is likely that international aid money will be funding the terror incentive, as past allocations for terrorists have been linked directly to US taxpayer money.

PA: $46 Million Extra To Terrorists - Courtesy of US Taxpayers
PA minister announces new law giving bonus to freed terrorist murderers, money coming from Western donations amid PA debt crisis.

..................................................
The Palestinian Authority (PA) announced last week that it will give an extra $46 million a year to released terrorists. US taxpayer dollars will inevitably go towards funding the reward for terror, as US President Barack Obama has reportedly pledged the PA $440 million in 2014.

PA Minister of Prisoners' Affairs Issa Karake made the announcement last Thursday, saying a new law has been approved which "is concerned with improving conditions for released (prisoners)," and noted the law's "budget...has been estimated at 160 million shekels ($46 million) a year."
