1. Our genius-minister must be careful not to deduct one penny
(09.22.18)
too much (God forbid!) than the actual “salary” the poor shahid family receives!
Are we stupid or just retarded?!
2. They're still Israel's enemy.
Brad ,   USA   (09.22.18)
Why are you giving them tax money in the first place?
3. So bad this tragedy turns into political give me votes.
Eden   (09.22.18)
The decision is security and belongs to security minister.
4. End historically unprecedented insanity of support enemies
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.22.18)
Never before, in all of human history, has a nation voluntarily supported its enemies. ONLY Israel engages in such lunacy. This lunacy has been going on for a long time, and it will only end when Israelis DEMAND it. Let's DEMAND it NOW!
5. Of course they'll pay them
Talula ,   Tel Aviv   (09.22.18)
These families are so desperate for money they convince their children to murder. Nice eh? We need to cut power, water, aid and stop treating them in Israel hospitals. It's ridiculous!!!!
6. Deduct from tax money
Boaz   (09.23.18)
And pass on to the family of the victim. That will discourage them from commiting terror attacks.
7. deduct for the cost of their incarceration

8. OMG! That penalty will REALLY squeeze the PA! NOT!!
david ,   Hartford USA   (09.22.18)
Duh! That's not a penalty, A couple hundred shekels a months is meaningless. If Kahlon had any balls (does he?), he'd state, in very plain language that even Abbas and the PA can understand, "any pay-to-slay payments paid to either an incarcerated prisoner or to the family of a neutralized terrorist, will be multiplied by 1,000 and that amount shall be deducted from PA tax revenue held by Israel. If these payments continue, then the deductions from PA taxes will continue.

For example, if Fuld's killer is getting $250 a month, then 1,000 times that amount is $250,000. That amount will be removed from held PA tax revenue and paid directly to the Fuld's family.

If the killer gets paid the following month, then another $250,000 is removed from the PA account and paid to the Fuld family.

Let the PA decide what's more important: paying terrorists or having funds to run the Authority. In any event, no victimized Israeli family will ever have financial worries again. The PA destroyed their family, the PA will fund their future welfare.

The PA must understand that pay-to-slay will bankrupt the PA. This should have been done years ago. Why it wasn't is question I'd like Bibi to answer.

Now multiply this process over all the jailed terrorists and families of neutralized killers: the PA will soon be bankrupt. Abbas will be kicked out on his ass and new people will take charge. Hopefully they will be a little smarter than Abbas.
