Summary

This AI summary is generated by Microsoft Edge Copilot:
Here are the key points from the current page:

- **Economic Dependence**: The Palestinian Authority (PA) relies on three main revenue sources: internal taxes, Israeli remittances, and foreign aid.
- **Israeli Control**: Israel indirectly controls internal taxes and directly controls remittances, impacting the PA's financial stability based on political relations.
- **Foreign Aid**: Although foreign aid bypasses Israeli control, much of it is spent on Israeli goods and services, reducing its net benefit to the PA.
- **Economic Strain**: The PA faces significant economic challenges due to these dependencies, likened to being "screwed" by the situation.
