Which are the words of the author of this piece. What part of the memo led her to that conclusion? I don’t see anything.

My guess would be the citing of US Code of the Migration and Refugee Assistance and applying it to Pale Refugees?

I think she has misinterpreted what he did here. As best I can determine, the money is to be used for humanitarian aid in Gaza. Here is how it was divided up:

Some $13.5m. of the funds, which comes on top of $85m. in relief the US had already committed for 2009, will go primarily to the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees. Another $6m. will go to the International Committee of the Red Cross and $800,000 will be given to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

There is nothing in news reports indicating that the money will be used to resettle people in the U.S.
