Nearly 1/4 of all West Bank Arab worker income is from Israel

The latest Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics labor report is out.

While joblessness increased across the board, there are still nearly 112,000 Arabs working in Israel or Israeli settlements, about 13% of the workforce.

But Arab workers in Israel get more than double the income of those in the West Bank, 222 shekels a day compared to 97.  They also work fewer hours every week.

This means that nearly a quarter of the total income of West Bank Arabs comes from Israelis.

Imagine what would happen to this already teetering economy if they would follow BDS advice and boycott Israel - or even if they would follow Peter Beinart's and other "progressive" Jewish advice and boycott only the Jews who live in Judea and Samaria.
