Public Security Minister Prevents PA Event In Jerusalem Hotel


Security Minister Gilad Erdan announced on Wednesday, 10 Adar that a PA (Palestinian Authority)-sponsored event which was to he hosted in the eastern Jerusalem St. George Hotel was canceled.

Officials in Erdan’s office report that they obtained information the PA planned to hold a Women’s Day event in the hotel but the minister prevented it since the PA may not hold events in Jerusalem without filing for permits in advance, which was not done.

Clearly this is a case of the PA trying to maintain a presence and establish a foothold in the eastern capital, which it views as the capital of a future State of Palestine.

Police were dispatched to the hotel to personally deliver the minister’s order to event organizers.
