<h4>ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN CORRESPONDENT RELATIONSHIP IN STABLE BUT CRITICAL CONDITION</h4> | |
<!-- Enter remarks for 08TELAVIV624 here. To quote from the cable use the convention: <blockquote>SOME TEXT...</blockquote> --> | |
<blockquote> | |
After Gaza was declared a | |
"hostile entity" by the GOI in June of 2007, <em>[Israeli banks]</em> Hapoalim and IDB | |
argued that it was impossible to verify with certainty that | |
standard banking transactions carried out on behalf of | |
Palestinian banks in Gaza were not <strong>benefiting a designated | |
terrorist organization (Hamas)</strong>. | |
</blockquote> | |
<p>The problem seems to be a legal one</p> | |
<blockquote> | |
The banks' real concern is their liability and court costs in an ongoing | |
<strong>civil suit against Arab Bank in U.S. courts</strong>. They hoped to | |
use the correspondent issue and the threat of collapsing the | |
Palestinian financial system to pressure the GOI and USG to | |
intervene and force a settlement. | |
</blockquote> | |
<p>The history of this legal case is a long chain of "designation by proxy": | |
<ul> | |
<li>Hamas [the democratically elected ruling party] gets designated as a terrorist organization</li> | |
<li>IDF suspects that the Ramallah branch of Arab Bank deals with Hamas, and | |
<a target="_top" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_bank#Israel_Defense_Forces_investigation">confiscates funds</a> | |
in connection with the investigation.</li> | |
<li>The investigation "designates" Arab Bank as a "Hamas banker" and serves as ground | |
to a US lawsuit against the bank by an Israeli group of hundreds of terror victims and their families. <sup>[1]</sup> | |
</li> | |
<li>Arab Bank "designates" Israeli banks Hapoalim and IDB as the processors of the | |
"terrorist transfers" through their correspondent accounts. | |
The Israeli banks don't believe such claims would stand in court, but they claim that | |
<blockquote> The <strong>legal fees and demands on human resources</strong> are a serious burden </blockquote> | |
</li> | |
<li>Israeli banks threatened to cut ties with Palestinian banks in order to minimize exposure to similar lawsuits in the future. | |
There's also another reason: | |
<blockquote> | |
Instead of fighting in court, <em>[IDB's legal advisor Amnon]</em> Lorch said that IDB | |
would prefer that Arab Bank settle the case. He implied that IDB's threats to cut off correspondent banking with | |
Palestinians <strong>were intended to force such a solution</strong>. | |
</blockquote> | |
</li> | |
<li>Gazan economy becomes a victim of "collateral designation"</li> | |
</ul> | |
<p> | |
<sup>[1]</sup> Six years after the raid, the IDF | |
<a target="_top" href="http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/news/idf-clears-ramallah-bank-of-terror-involvement-1.284140">formally admits</a> | |
Arab Bank and/or its employees had no involvement in terror, but the US lawsuit is <strong>still ongoing</strong> | |
(<a target="_top" href="http://electronicintifada.net/content/arab-bank-mounts-legal-challenge-against-claims-aiding-terror/12598">as of July 2013</a>), running on "designation fume". | |

<h4>ISRAELI BANK DETERMINED TO CUT GAZA BANKING TIES</h4> | |
<!-- Enter remarks for 08TELAVIV1508 here. To quote from the cable use the convention: <blockquote>SOME TEXT...</blockquote> --> | |
<blockquote> | |
Bank Hapoalim (BH) informed the Bank of Palestine | |
(BOP) in a July 6 letter that it <strong>will no longer provide it | |
with cash transfer services</strong>. The decision was made | |
independent of any consultation with or approval by the GOI | |
or the Bank of Israel (BOI) and was triggered by a BOP | |
request for a NIS 25 million transfer in early July. | |

<h4>TERRORISM FINANCE: GOI SAYS NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT AGAINST THE CENTRAL BANK OF IRAN AND INCREASES ITS FINANCIAL ISOLATION OF GAZA</h4> | |
<!-- Enter remarks for 08TELAVIV1742 here. To quote from the cable use the convention: <blockquote>SOME TEXT...</blockquote> --> | |
<blockquote> | |
Udi Levi <em>[from Israel's National Security Council (NSC)]</em> ... | |
said that the GOI maintains information to | |
implicate the CBI <em>[Central Bank of Iran]</em> in 1) transferring money without the use of | |
Swift to obfuscate the identities of the parties transmitting | |
and receiving money, 2) planning to purchase undesignated | |
banks using false names through which it could assist Iranian | |
enterprise in circumventing sanctions, and 3) <strong>acting on | |
behalf of designated Iranian banks such as Bank Melli and | |
Bank Saderat</strong> <sup>[2]</sup> to execute transactions that would otherwise be | |
prohibited. On the last point, DAS Glaser mentioned that if | |
any of this activity were occurring in London, such | |
information could be key to persuading an otherwise highly | |
cautious UK to take action. The Israelis said that they would | |
look into that question. | |
</blockquote> | |
<p> | |
<sup>[2]</sup> This is a good example of the "contagious" effect of designation: | |
Bank Saderat was one of the two Iranian banks <a target="_top" href="http://ukhumanrightsblog.com/2013/02/07/another-iranian-bank-released-by-the-eu-wikileaks-here-as-well/">released by the EU general court</a> in 2013 (in both cases, CableGate leaked cables were | |
<a target="_top" href="http://wikileaks-press.org/wikileaks-documents-used-in-courts-the-case-of-the-iranian-bank/">accepted by the court as evidence</a>). | |
At the time, Bank Saderat was designated. This made it possible to accuse CBI of collaborating with it. | |
</p> | |
<p>Regarding liquidity in Gaza:</p> | |
<blockquote> | |
econoff learned that the BOI and Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) | |
were operating under a principle of not permitting any | |
additional liquidity into Gaza. | |
... | |
GOI intelligence agencies generally believe that PA salaries paid in Gaza | |
actually make their way into the hands of Hamas; <sup>[3]</sup> therefore, | |
the PA argument that the salaries meet the mutually | |
beneficial goal of bolstering Fatah does not impress the | |
Israelis. While Israeli officials frequently express their | |
doubts with regard to PA statistical assessments of the state | |
of the economy in Gaza, <strong>whether the PA is able to meet its | |
salary commitments in Gaza appears of little concern to the | |
GOI.</strong> | |
</blockquote> | |
<p><sup>[3]</sup> Note: since | |
<a target="_top" | |
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatah%E2%80%93Hamas_conflict#West_Bank:_Fatah_wins_and_establishes_a_separate_government">2007</a>, | |
PA (at least in the west bank) is Fatah-led, and is considered an ally by both GOI and USG. | |
It's in their interest [at least officially] to strengthen it and weaken Hamas.</p> | |

On Sunday, September 29, <strong>Bank | |

<h4>CASHLESS IN GAZA?</h4> | |
<!-- Enter remarks for 08TELAVIV2447 here. To quote from the cable use the convention: <blockquote>SOME TEXT...</blockquote> --> | |
<blockquote> | |
Israeli officials reject the PA,s argument that denying banks the liquidity to pay PA | |
salaries in full bolsters the Hamas regime. | |
While some acknowledge the gains to Hamas from a weakened formal banking | |
sector in Gaza, they argue that such gains are small relative | |
to the cost of giving Hamas greater access to shekels or the | |
economic benefits they bring to Gazans. | |
</blockquote> | |
<p>The words "gains" and "cost" are (of course) from GOI's perspective, | |
but what about the impact of cash shortage on the Gazan in the street?</p> | |
<blockquote> | |
Israeli officials have confirmed to econoffs on multiple occasions | |
that they intend to <strong>keep the Gazan economy on the brink of | |
collapse without quite pushing it over the edge</strong> | |
</blockquote> | |
<p> | |

Given the separation between Hamas and the PMA-regulated private banks, | |
