	Palestine Monetary Authority - PMA
		The historical development of the banking sector in Palestine was, initially, marked by weakness and deformity in its structure and activities due to the political circumstances that Palestine went through.
		In 1981, Bank of Palestine was permitted to operate in Gaza city and banned from opening new branches in Khan-Younis.
		The number of banks in Palestine decreased to (21) by the end of this period with (120) branches.

	Encyclopedia: Palestinian Authority
		The Palestinian National Authority (PNA or PA) is a semi-autonomous state institution nominally governing the bulk of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip (which it calls "the Palestinian Territories").
		The Palestinian Authority has historically been associated with the PLO, with whom Israel negotiated in the Oslo accords; as such, it had been headed so far by Yasser Arafat, and manned almost exclusively by PLO officials, most of them locals who have participated in the Tanzim (Operations), PLO's militant branch established for the First Intifada.
		The Palestinian Authority has allowed the PLO to use The Church of Saint Nicholas in Beit Jala as a base for machine gun and mortar attacks on the Israeli community Gilo.

	Palestinian National Authority - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Palestinian National Authority (PNA or PA; Arabic: السلطة الوطنية الفلسطينية As-Sulta Al-Wataniyya Al-Filastiniyya Hebrew: הרשות הפלסטינית Harashut Hafalastinit) is an interim administrative organization that nominally governs parts of the West Bank and all of the Gaza Strip (which it calls "the Palestinian Territories").
		Under the name "Palestine", it has an observer status in the United Nations, and receives considerable financial assistance from the European Union, as well as some from the United States and few other donor countries.
		This is because these repeated degradations of PA resources and infrastructure have led to complaints by the PA and some of its EU funders that Israel is deliberately hobbling the PA to restrict its powers of law enforcement in order to present an image of terrorism and lawlessness in the Palestinian Territories.

	Palestine Liberation Organization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Palestine Liberation Organization is considered the legitimate representative of the Palestinian people and holds a permanent observer seat in the UN General Assembly.
		Therefore the Palestinian National Charter of 1964 [2] stated: "The claims of historic and spiritual ties between Jews and Palestine are not in agreement with the facts of history or with the true basis of sound statehood.
		On 26 April 1996, the Palestine National Council voted to nullify or amend all such clauses, and called for a new text to be produced.

	Palestine - Information, Maps, Facts, What to do, Links, and much more.
		Palestine (Latin: Syria Palæstina; Hebrew: פלשתינה Palestina, ארץ־ישראל Eretz Yisrael; Arabic: فلسطين Filasṭīn), is a region in the Middle East extending inland from the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea.
		The "State of Palestine", whose independence was declared by the PLO in the 1980s, claims these territories, and 2/3 of the world's nations recognize the "State of Palestine" as a state, though it lacks many characteristics of a typical independent country, such as monetary independence and clear borders.
		Palestine has been recognized as a state (in the de jure sense) by 94 countries[6] (http://www.pna.gov.ps/Government/gov/recognition_of_the_State_of_Palestine.asp), and there is a seat for "Palestine" in the League of Arab States and the Organization of Islamic Conference.

		Is it the fault of the Palestine Authority, which on one hand, follows methodically a text-book procedure of having a democratically elected 'President', a 'Prime Minister', a 'cabinet', a 'Parliament' and even 'Ambassadors', and on the other, it does not call itself the "government of Palestine" or "state of Palestine" officially.
		Who are then the "advisers" that prevented Palestine Authority, or the then newly independent 'Palestine government' (unfortunately, the term "Palestine government" is never used by the Palestine leadership) that prevented Palestine leadership not to fulfil the basic formality on the part of a new state for its admission in the UN as a member?
		However, the Palestine authority should have raised the question of its admission in the UN during the last sixteen years, since it declared independence without fear or favour from any quarters.

	The Israel Palestine Negotiations
		Palestine is not a fully constituted nation that can protect itself and appeal to world institutions for assistance.
		As president of the Palestine Authority, Arafat directs negotiations from an autocratic and military perspective, apparently unable to realize that an emerging Palestinian nation requires a statesmanlike presence, a progressive appearance, improved public relations and vision.
		If agreements between Israel and the Palestinian Authority are governed by justice, cooperation and understanding rather than domination, hostility and avarice, the two parties can assist one another in resolving their internal problems and not permitting their conflict with each other to intensify them.

		Under the 1995 Interim Agreement of the Oslo Accords, the Palestinian Authority was specifically prohibited from taking on the trappings of a national state until agreement on final status was reached bilaterally with Israel.
		But the UN and others continually undermined that agreement by cooperating with the Palestinian Authority as if it were a state.

		Palestine Authority radio, known as the PBC "VOICE OF PALESTINE", remains the most influential media tool in the hands of the Palestinian government.
		Once again, VOICE OF PALESTINE did not condemn the attack that killed a pregnant mother and her four children, but did vigorously condemn the "cowardly act" by Israel of attacking a Hamas radio station which had exhorted Palestinians to carry out further attacks against Israelis.
		That is the same Palestinian Authority which receives direct aid from all of the western democracies, including the USA to the tune of more than 10 billion dollars in its ten years of existence.

		Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported that the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) started issuing passports to the public in the self-ruling areas of Gaza and Jericho on Sunday, April 2, 1995.
		The first diplomatic passport, bearing the signature of PNA Chairman Yassir Arafat, was issued on April 1, 1995 to Saeb Erakaat, the minister for local government.
		The U.S. Department of State has determined that the Palestinian Authority Passport/Travel Document meets the requirements of a passport as defined in Section 101(a)(30) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and therefore is acceptable for visa issuing purposes and travel to the United States.

	The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine
		After Arafat took the political steps to renounce terrorism in 1988 and then entered into the Oslo peace process of the 1990s, he could not be the point man in violent attacks on Israelis and other Jews as he did in the earlier days of his PLO organization.
		On the contrary, Arafat and his Palestinian Authority were obligated to end terrorism and incitement against Israel as a condition of Israel's acceptance of its obligations.
		Despite Palestinian Authority declarations that they are vigorously persuing the killers, Ze'evi's murderers continue to benefit from sanctuary in Palestinian Authority-controlled areas and the PFLP did not halt its armed operations against Israeli civilians.

		As a response to the crime, Palestine militia fired homemade mortar bombs from the South of Gaza Strip against installations on the Israeli State"s soil, causing damage to buildings but not victims.
