Perhaps they shouldn't have trashed all those greenhouses.

Well, to confirm that the aid goes to stated purposes is very easy. As I never give to panhandlers, I am 200% sure that whatever I give them [i.e. zero] is fully accounted for and is never spent outside of its intended purpose.

.....has warned foreign donors that he has no idea where much of their money has been spent.

Weapons/training for local terrorists and stuffing Swiss bank accounts, that's where. ....while most American taxpayers are oblivious.

Million "lost", eh? The leaders each took their cut for their retirement fund and disbursed the rest to the terrorists. It just galls me that America is still giving money to these rodents. I thought we were fighting terrorism. It sure doesn't look like it to me.

Swiss bank account, terrorist training & weapons, payoffs for militia leaders, etc. Whatever--Everyone knows this, and (indeed) expected it. Thats why it won't deter the donors from giving billions more even one bit. After all, its in the interest of peace(es).

The aim is to keep the 95% of the paly 'citizens' in abject poverty, which they will blame, predictably, on the West and on the US in particular.

Let them rot.

Rotting is just a slow oxidation process. I say let's speed it up to complete instant oxidation!

BFD2000: Democratically elected Muslim government bump.

Doo-doo topped with ribbon. This terrorist-ridden (and led) economic basketcase is headed by pilferers of international aid monies intent on hopeless, bloody internal squabbling - all the while blaming America and Israel for all of its self-imposed ills.

Though a skilled sculptor can bend clay to his will to take on the desired shape, only a foolish one would hope to do the same with old dried-out cat shit.

This is what the entire middle-east will look like without oil. A global backwater which will never be host to anything of relevance other than conflict and repression (ie the same thing it is now, except with fewer shiny toys). Democracy in the region will not cure the endemic cultural cancer that pervades it.

Today's Manhattan project should be to develop an energy alternative that can be adopted by not only America, but will gladly be purchased for adoption by the rest of the world (including the developing world, which for some ODD REASON will never include Muslim nations) by virtue of being cheaper. Bankrupt the neolithics, and, when they act up, pave them from 30,000. The liberals and their spawn, from Wilson forward, had their chance to "fix" the world. Naivety can no longer be used as an excuse - what remains is willful disregard of the cold, hard truth. Let these bastards culturally evolve or rot.

I know where about half a billion of it went.

Arafat's pig of a wife, Suha.

She lives in the Hotel Bristol in Paris. Her suites there run about $15,000 per night.

Not to mention her millions spent each year on shopping, vacations, food (she really needs food), and whatever else.

Stop worrying about where the money went. JUST SEND MORE.

Why are their so many similarities between the Middle East and New Orleans?

I'm with you...but....

IMO, they cannot culturally evolve until they get rid of the lunatic leadership....the dusty, ugly, sunken dark eyed imams, mullas, and ayatollahs...

These neanderthals are the driving force which keeps the flock in the dark age dirt.

I tend to believe that if the muzzie leadership were removed and the threat of murder and terror were removed from the muzzie flock....islam would start dying on its own. People would leave in droves, especially the women.

....or....maybe not....

In the 14 months since Hamas won elections, Palestinian finances have descended into such chaos that there is now no way to confirm whether aid is going to its stated purpose,

"Foreign aid" to the PA has NEVER gone to the stated purpose! It went to Arafat and his cronies, then later his successors, and finally weapons used to murder women and children.

Why is anyone surprised at this?
