A top Palestinian official has condemned JSIL's (Israel) freeze of Palestinian tax revenues as illegal and tantamount to theft.
Press TV: Secretary-General of the Palestinian National Initiative Mustafa Barghouthi said Sunday that Tel Aviv’s decision to withhold tens of millions of dollars worth of Palestinian tax money is in fact an act of piracy.
“What Israel is doing is theft, piracy and illegal," Barghouthi said, adding, “Tel Aviv has no right to withhold money paid by the sweat and blood of the Palestinian people.”
Barghouthi said Israel must face sanctions and be boycotted over its outrageous violations.
He also called on the Palestinian authorities to stop all sorts of security coordination with Israel.
On Saturday, top Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat similarly condemned the Israeli move, saying Tel Aviv cannot divert Palestinians from moving toward freedom and independence through economic pressure.
Israel on Friday halted the transfer of taxes it collects on behalf of Palestinians in retaliation for their application to join the International Criminal Court (ICC).
The Tel Aviv regime made the decision after Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas signed the documents required for Palestine to join 20 international organizations, including the ICC.
Abbas signed the request to join the ICC after the United Nations Security Council rejected a Palestinian proposal for statehood on Tuesday.
In 2012, following Palestine’s wining of a UN vote acknowledging it as a non-member state, Tel Aviv again delayed payments to the Palestinians.
After foreign aid is deducted, tax revenues account for around two-thirds of the Palestinian Authority's yearly budget.

JSIL Zio-Nazi Regime Diverts $18mn From Death Squad Budget To Aid Land Theft
JSIL leader Benjamin 'child butcher' Netanyahu has agreed to provide 70 million shekels ($17.8 million) for the construction of the infrastructure for 300 more land theft units in the occupied West Bank.
Press TV: Baby butcher Netanyahu and Israeli Minister for genocide Moshe Ya'alon came to an agreement to allocate the fund from the military budget to the Beit El settlement.
Israel’s former Finance Minister Yair Lapid had blocked the move last year, saying that the cabinet could decide on such expenditure. However, his dismissal from the cabinet when the coalition collapsed paved the way for the launch of the project.
On December 24, 2014, the Israeli regime gave the green light to the construction of 380 new settler units in two areas of East Jerusalem al-Quds.
Despite widespread global condemnation of Israel’s land grab policies, Tel Aviv has approved a series of plans for new settler units in East al-Quds in recent months.
The presence and continued expansion of Israeli settlements in occupied Palestine has created a major obstacle for the efforts to establish peace in the Middle East.
More than half a million Israelis live in over 120 illegal settlements built since Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories of the West Bank including East al-Quds in 1967.
The UN and most countries regard the Israeli settlements as illegal because the territories were occupied by Israel in a war in 1967 and are hence subject to the Geneva Conventions, which forbid construction on occupied lands.
