Batsheva Nigri, a preschool teacher, was riding in a car with her six – year – old daughter when Islamic terrorists from the Palestinian Authority’s Al – Aqsa Martyrs Brigade cut them off and riddled the car with 22 bullets. Batsheva’s six – year – aged daughter watched her mother die. The Palestinian Authority’s terror group hailed the murder of a 42 – year – aged preschool teacher as a” natural response to the crimes of the occupation” and as revenge for Denis Michael Rohan, a non – Israeli American tourist, starting a fire in the Al Aqsa occupation mosque in 1969. Those who knew the preschool teacher described her as a woman with a” heart of gold” to whom” all the children were like her children”. Hamas and Islamic Jihad yet claimed that her murder glorifies Allah. Monday’s murder comes after an Jewish father and son were shot to death on the Sabbath. They’re among a growing list of terror victims this year ranging in age from a 6 – year – older boy run down on a Jerusalem street to an 82 – year – old woman who was killed while trying to get her crippled husband to safety when a rocket hit their building. The twenty – six terror victims are a strong increase from the only 3 deaths in 2020 when the Trump administration’s cutoff of aid to the terrorists occupying parts of Israel took effect. The number of terror victims fell every year Trump was in office, from 15 in 2017, to 12 in 2018, 10 in 2019 and therefore just 3 in 2020. And the number of terror victims shot up every year Biden was in office from 17 in 2021, to 31 in 2022, and there is every sign that 2023 will top that. Half as many Israelis were killed in one month of Biden than in one year of Trump. It’s just August and presently 26 Israelis have been killed by Islamist terrorists. Last year at this time 18 Israelis had been killed by terrorists making for a 40 % increase in 2023. What made all the difference? As Rep. Ilhan Omar once said,” It’s all about the’ benjamins'”. In 2018, Congress passed the Taylor Force Act, named after an Iraq War veteran who was stabbed to death by a terrorist in Jerusalem, which cut off most aid to the Palestinian Authority. In 2019, President Trump went even further with a virtually complete cutoff of aid to the Palestinian Authority. Biden no just restored aid, he sharply increased the flow of cash to the terrorists. Biden’s half a billion dollars helped fuel a huge surge in Islamist terrorism. Even though the funds are designated as humanitarian aid, they are used to finance terrorism by entering dangerous areas. The Palestinian Authority continues to run a” pay-to-slay” program that pays terrorists salaries based on how long their prison terms are. In a region of the world where the average monthly salary is around$ 700, successful killers can make$ 3,000 per month. Being a terrorist is five times more lucrative than being an educator. That is what the Biden administration has been paying for, and it is the price of Batsheva’s life. The Palestinian Authority provides funding for terrorism, as the Biden administration is also informed. We are working to bring pay-to-slay to an end, according to Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs Barbara Leaf, despite the fact that Biden and Secretary-of-State Blinken declined to discuss the matter with terror leader Mahmoud Abbas. Otherwise, the United States is providing funding for pay-to-slay. worse still. According to recent documents, the State Department requested an OFAC license to provide international aid while being exempt from the Global Terrorist Sanctions Regulations. ” We assess there is a high risk Hamas could potentially derive indirect, unintentional benefit from U.S. assistance to Gaza ,” the government’s sanctions exemption document stated. The Biden administration is aware that it is funding terrorism, but there is still some risk that U.S. assistance would help additional designated groups. In addition to being aware of it, it really requested an exemption so that it could continue funding terrorists, including Hamas. Similar to the 74 terrorists killed under Biden, Batsheva’s murder was directly and instantly funded by aid to terrorist groups and sanctions against the Iranian government. The OFAC documents make it abundantly clear that the Biden administration was forewarned that it was funding terrorism and that people would perish. These policies were never implemented carelessly. Because of this, the number of Israelis keeps increasing each year that Biden has been in office. Secretary of State Blinken met with Mahmoud Abbas and promised another$ 50 million to UNRWA, which serves as Hamas’ employment agency, after 7 Israelis, including a 14-year-old boy, were killed in an Israeli terrorist attack on the Sabbath in January 2023. The Biden administration forewarned Israel earlier that month to give terrorists$ 39 million in tax revenue rather than using it to aid terror victims in rebuilding their lives. The Biden administration demanded that Republicans stop withholding$ 75 million in” humanitarian aid” from the UN agency in August, when 4 Israelis had already been killed. Until Secretary of State Blinken certifies that UNRWA” is not affiliated with U.S. designated international terrorist organizations ,” Sen. Jim Risch and Rep. Michael McCaul are established to halt that assistance. However, it appears that the Biden administration is unable to actually get rid of the most basic legal restrictions. The children have lost a teacher and friend in Batsheva’s hometown of Efrat, which the Biden administration views as an” illegal settlement” despite numerous references to it in the Bible. In order to” prepare the kindergarten for the start of the year ,” the murdered preschool teacher had been traveling. She” greeted me with a beaming smile that always accompanied her every time I entered the kindergarten ,” according to one of the women who worked with her. Batsheva did never have to pass away because the kids meant the world to her. She often gave them hugs and did what she could to help the parents, staff, and kids. None of the 26 people who were now killed this year did. 2020’s three fatalities demonstrate what is probable. The murder of innocent people is being funded intentionally by the Biden administration.
[Editor’s Note: Be sure to read Daniel Greenfield’s masterpiece contributions in Jamie Glazov’s new book, Barack Obama’s Tru Legacy: How he Transformed America. Batsheva’s six-year-old child watched her mother die. Batsheva Nigri’s daughter, six, watched her mother die. The Palestinian Authority’s terrorist group hailed her murder as a “natural reaction to the crimes committed by the occupation.” Hamas, however, claimed that her death glorified Allah. The terror victims range in age from a 6-year old boy who was run down in a Jerusalem street, to an 82 year-old woman killed trying to get her disabled spouse to safety after a rocket struck their building. The number of terror victims increased every year Biden served in office, from 17 in 2020 to 31 in 2022. There is every indication that 2023 may surpass that. What made the difference? Last year, at this time, 18 Israelis were killed by terrorists. This is a 40% increase from 2023. Ilhan Omar said it best, “It is all about the Benjamins”. In 2018, Congress passed the Taylor Force Act named after a veteran of the Iraq War who was stabbed by a terrorist to death in Jerusalem. This cut off the majority of aid to the Palestinian Authority. In 2019, President Trump cut off nearly all aid to the Palestinian Authority. Biden did not only restore aid, but he also increased the flow to terrorists. Biden’s half-a-billion dollars helped fuel an explosive rise in Islamic terrorism. The money may be listed as humanitarian assistance, but injecting it into terror zones funds terrorism. The Palestinian Authority has a “pay-to-slay” program that pays terrorists salaries based on their prison sentences. Successful killers could earn $3,000 per month in an area of the world where the typical salary is $700. The Biden administration knows that the Palestinian Authority finances terrorism. While Biden and Secretary Blinken refused, Barbara Leaf, Assistant Secretary for Near Eastern Affairs, claimed that “we are working to end pay-to slay.” Instead, the United States funds pay-to slay. The risk of U.S. aid benefiting other designated groups is lower, but there is still a small chance. “The Biden administration knows it’s funding terror.” It is not just aware of it, but it has actually applied for an exception to be able continue funding terrorists…including Hamas.Batsheva’s murder, as well as that of the 74 terror victim killed under Biden was paid for both directly and indirectly by foreign aid to terrorists, and sanctions relief for Iran’s terror regime. The OFAC documents show that the Biden administration was warned that they were funding terrorism, and that people were going to die. That’s why Israel continues to grow every year since Biden took office. In January 2023, the Biden Administration warned Israel not to give $39 million of tax revenue to terrorists, but to use it to help terror victims rebuild. Sen. Jim Risch, and Rep. Michael McCaul want to block the aid until Secretary Blinken certifies UNRWA is not “affiliated with U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organizations”. The Biden administration is unable to overcome this smallest of legal hurdles. In Batsheva’s hometown of Efrat – which the Biden Administration considers to be an “illegal settlement”, despite being mentioned in the bible numerous times – the children have lost both a teacher, and a friend. She was devoted to her children. She always hugged them, and gave everything she had to the staff, parents, and children. None of the 26 people who have already died this year had to. The 3 deaths in 2020 are a good example of what is possible. The Biden administration is funding the murder of innocents.
