It is fairly well accepted. Here for example an Observer leader refers to
it:
"Any action against Saddam Hussein, who no doubt regards the bounty Iraq is
paying the families of Palestinian suicide bombers as money well spent, will
still have to be justified by evidence."

Here the Financial Times mentions it:
"There is evidence that Mr Saddam is feeding Palestinian fires: he recently
increased the cash bounty he would pay families of suicide bombers who
attack Israel to $25,000 from $10,000 a head"
