Trump Suspends Aid to U.N. Agency Dealing with Palestinian ‘Refugees’
breitbart ^ | JOEL B. POLLAK

The Trump administration has reportedly suspended $125 million in aid for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), the special UN agency that deals specifically with so-called Palestinian refugees. Barack Ravid of Israel’s Channel 10, writing at Axios.com, notes:

The move comes after the Palestinian Authority suspended their contacts with the Trump administration in response to its decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. A senior White House official said no decision have been made yet, but confirmed that a review of the U.S. assistance to the Palestinians is underway “in light of the Palestinians’ recent conduct.”

The [three anonymous Western] diplomats added that U.S. officials told U.N. officials in the last two days that President Trump is considering totally cutting the part of the funding which was frozen, and is even considering cutting up to $180 million, which amounts to half of the U.S. funding to UNRWA.

It’s certainly a start, but I hope not an ending.
Good Trump!

Good Trump. Down boy.

He’s our attack dog in this hunt, and I’m very pleased with him.

Here’s a doggie biscuit. Daddy is very pleased.

LOL

Trump just keeps getting it right. The difference between doing what’s right and politics.

Trump’s going to squeeze the Pali-terrorists until they make peace.

One step at a time. And it’s been a lot of steps over the past year.

Forever. War with Israel is all they've got, just like 'hate Trump' is all the dumbocraps have.
