Here's Chris Pattens response to the accusation that EU money ends up paying terrorists....

europa.eu.int...

"None of the documents provided by the Government of Israel has shown any indication or proof that the above mentioned persons or any known members of terrorist groups are on the PA payroll. The Commission has followed up this question with the PA, including the head of the Preventive Security forces in the West Bank. He informed us that Awis was a member of the security forces before the intifada, then stopped reporting to his post before the attacks he is accused of took place. According to the Preventive Security chief, Azouni and Abu Hania are not on the PA payroll."

"3. Do you consider it inconceivable that the PA maintains an unofficial shadow budget without the Commission’s knowledge based on a system of double bookkeeping?

The Palestinian Authority’s budgetary system requires that all revenues and expenditures are channelled through the Ministry of Finance’s Single Treasury Account at the Arab Bank in Gaza, including payments made by Israel, the EU and other international donnors. All revenues and expenditures are reflected in the overall PA budget. The IMF continuously monitors the implementation of this budget. It is therefore virtually impossible that the PA could maintain an unofficial shadow budget based on a system of double bookkeeping, and the Commission has no evidence to support claims to that effect."
