Washington: The leadership of the Palestinian Authority has agreed to halt payments to the families of suicide bombers, US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has said. Compensation payments to the families of “martyrs” who die carrying out attacks on Israelis are one of the sticking points in the moribund Middle East peace process.
“They have changed their policy, at least I have been informed they’ve changed that policy,” Tillerson told US lawmakers on Tuesday.
Tillerson is probably not nearly as skeptical as I am.
