Condi Rice wants to use the US taxpayers money to set up a new terrorist state. Jordan is already a Palestinian state with 70% Palestinian now. It is a total waste of funds that the USA does not have.

Because money isn't flammable at standard temperature and pressure?

Some 2,000 Jordanians protested after Friday noon prayers against Israeli economic sanctions and military operations in the Gaza Strip, calling for solidarity with Hamas and more suicide attacks against Israel.

The protest in the Jordanian capital of Amman, led by Jordan’s Muslim Brotherhood organization, praised the Hamas movement which control’s the Gaza Strip and its leader Ismail Haniyeh, in a show of strength by the movement following its defeat at the polls.

“Al-Kassam army go forward with your suicide attacks against the enemy,” shouted the protesters, referring to Hamas’s armed wing, while waving Jordanian and Brotherhood flags.

The protesters also called for the expulsion of the Israeli ambassador and the closure of the embassy in Amman. “Al-Rabieh must be liberated from the Zionist embassy and its ambassador,” they shouted, referring to the neighborhood where it is located.

Rice will meet Sunday with Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad to discuss the pledge. Fayyad is a banker whose clean reputation and efforts to reform the government are often praised by the Bush administration

Oh......well, then by all means give him the check. I feel much better about it now.

Good Lord! I am so sick of funding our damn enemies.

Since the Bush Doctrine considers funders of terrorism the same as the terrorists themselves, are we now at war with ourselves?

Why did we stop sending funds? Terrorism. Have the Palestinians recognized Israel as a Jewish state that will remain for all time? No. Then send no funds.

It’s about time the Palestinians did something for peace. Otherwise let them live in the squalor they prefer.

The E.U. estimated that $2.8 billion in past aid to the then-Arafat controlled P.A. is "unaccounted for" to this day.

I'm convinced that the sheeple are too dumb or too lazy. In any event, there has been too many yrs of MTV, CNN & the public school system to jolt anyone. I caught the end of RUSH yesterday when he was talking to that women from Albany. There are just too many stoops like her grazing on our land.

Which Bush Doctrine? The one from 2001 is inoperative.

President Bush (2001):
“You’re either on our side or the terrorists’ side”.


Fast forward (2007)

Abu Abdullah of Hamas' Izzedine al-Qassam Martyrs Brigades of Hamas' military wing (Gaza, June 20, 2007).
"We have no worries about running out of weapons or ammunition
thanks to your (stupid, corrupt, terrorist-supporting) American government
"

It really is sad how the American people just cannot be told the truth about Condoleeza Rice, her mentors Brent Scowcroft and James Baker III, and their strong financial and personal ties to the Ibn Saud regime. When Rice leaves government in 2009, it will begin a long private career in the Saudi/Gulf sphere of influence. People will be shocked at her open anti-Israel bias in the future. Unfortunately she gets a total pass on the very same bias, while it is obscured by diplomaspeak.
