EU suggests creating fund for aid to Palestinians
JPost.com Staff, THE JERUSALEM POST May. 5, 2006
The EU has suggested to the US, Russia, and the UN that a joint fund be created to give humanitarian aid to the Palestinians that will bypass the Hamas-led government.
The EU prepared a $43 million aid package that would help fund Palestinian health and education services, and suggested that Arab and other countries - including Israel - could provide aid to the Palestinians through the fund, Israel Radio reported.
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas would not be able to decide how the fund distributed money, noted the EU's representative for foreign affairs.
Bad idea.
Can they add me to that aid recipient list? I wouldn't mind some free money.
WHY?!?!?
Arent there enough poor people in the world?
They ran out of charity cases to such an extent that they have to help people who chose a terrorist government?
NUTS, ABSOLUTELY NUTS.
Read the Shelby Steele article that Rush alluded to a few days back. In Opinion Journal. Explains it all. This is pathetic and stupid White Man's Guilt doing stupid stuff to help those who dont deserve it. Moral stupidity.
Pay them to disburse. Some societies can't make it on their own and hold civilization back constantly...Voila..I give you the palies!(small p used to denote disrespect).
The Eurabia connection continues....
Just another oil-for-food scam in a different format.
A mess of bureaucrats will get rich and the palis will still be west hating, poor, and otherwise useless.
Considering they're displaced Jordanians (not palestinians, palestinians don't exist), why doesn't Jordan pay for them?
There is no way you will bypass Hamas. The money will get to them by a variety of channels-donation, extraction, protection rackets, skimming, etc, etc.
Let these stubborn people stew in their own poverty for a while and pretty soon there will be the inevitable civil war and maybe, just maybe some more pragmatic elements will emerge who are genuinely interested in a real peace with Israel.
"The idiocy of the Eurosocialist liberals knows NO bounds"
The US is funding them again also.
Palestinians do exist. It is another word for Arabs. People who cannot even feed themselves have no right to claim charity from those who do.
Look for the reason that millions of people are not able to produce enough food to feed themselves. It's because they have not advanced beyond the pottery stage.
Survival is based on intelligence. Ask why it is that people will stand around idle until they fall over dead of starvation rather than scratch a living out of the soil they are soiling?
The best way to combat terrorism is to stop feeding them and they will die off.
Forget it. Let the Arab countries spend some of their oil profits to "help out" their Palestinian brethren.
