PA Paid $2,000 to Father of Dolphinarium Suicide Bomber

On June 1, 2001, Said Hassan Houtari, a Hamas suicide bomber, attacked the Dolphinariuim discotheque in Tel Aviv, killing 21 Israelis, most of them teenagers, and wounding 83.
It has now been disclosed that the Palestinian Authority transferred $2,000 to Houtari's father, who resides in Jordan, on June 18 of that year.
German television reported that Arafat sent the bomber's father a note praising the attack by his son.
