A report issued by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development ignores Palestinian corruption and terrorist funding and instead blames Israeli "occupation" for the economic shortcomings in the West Bank and Gaza. The report, "The Economic Costs of the Israeli Occupation for the Palestinian People and their Human Right to Development: Legal Dimensions," does not mention Hamas even once. Hamas's misappropriation of millions of dollars of donor funds and equipment to purchase weapons and construct terror tunnels to kill Israelis - instead of development - is also never mentioned. The report also fails to mention that the Palestinian Authority paid over over
$300 million to terrorists in 2017 according to Palestinian "pay-to-slay" laws.
