PA gets a $100 million USD from our allies in Qatar
2015-04-09
[Jewish Press] Qatari Emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani waves to the crowds at the Rafah border crossing with Egypt, Tuesday.

Qatar "loaned" the Palestinian Authority $100 million dollars today, to help pay salaries and make up for the tax revenue being withheld by Israel after the PA took unilateral steps against Israel in the ICC and the UN, according to a Reuters report.

PA Chairman Mahmoud "Abu Mazen" Abbas officially thanked Qatar.

Qatar owns the Al Jazeera news station.
