Palestinian Authority warns it will prosecute any NGO that agrees NOT to hire terrorists as a condition for funding. Really.

One of the lesser known Palestinian Authority sections is the Civil Society Organizations Commission, an attempt to centralize administration of the huge number of foreign-funded NGOs and "civil society" organizations.

It is headed by Major General Sultan Abu Al-Enein.

Al-Enein just instructed all of the Palestinian NGOs not to cooperate when foreign funders, mostly European, want to put anti-terror clauses on their funding. And if any Palestinian NGO signs a clause that says that they will not hire or fund terrorists, they will be prosecuted under Palestinian law!

You read that right.

From  the official WAFA news agency Palestine Today (and other Arabic news sites):

 The head of the Civil Society Organizations Affairs Authority, Sultan Abu Al-Enein, warned the private sector not to be an entry point for normalization or marketing of liquidation plans for our national project, represented by the "deal of the century", or normalization agreements, through their acceptance of conditional funding or politically oriented programs to put pressure on our leadership and our people.

Abu Al-Enein said that there are intense contacts that some countries or international institutions are making, through civil work, to sign documents that harm the fundamentals of our Palestinian people, in return for financing their programs and societal and cultural activities.

He said that the acceptance by some civil institutions of this conditional funding would be a blow to the steadfastness positions announced by the Palestinian leadership at the level of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the national and Islamic action factions.

He renewed the warning that accepting this funding is national betrayal and a departure from the national ranks, and will not pass without punishment, stressing that the competent authorities will work to prosecute these institutions legally and nationally, and expose those in charge of them in front of the Palestinian public, which rallies around its national constants.
