DESCRIPTION

The PA is the West Bank's largest employer, and around one third of its annual budget is allocated to 'security and public order' - more than health and education combined. All new recruits are vetted by Israeli and US officials, and have been widely deployed to crack down on non-violent Palestinian civil society activities, while doing nothing to protect Palestinians from attacks by Israeli settlers or soldiers.
