Minister Gilad Erdan has responded to the fatal terror attack in Ariel by noting Palestinian Authority Chairman "Abu Mazen insists that the payment to the terrorists will continue. This act of terrorism is on the hands of Abu Mazen."
Speaking at the Israel Bar Association's Lawyers Network Initiative Conference on Delegitimization of Israel, Erdan continued, "This must stop. All countries must stop paying the Palestinian Authority because the money is coming to terror."
