Obama Fires 20,000 Marines, But Sends $700 Million to Palestinian Terrorists
Frontpage ^ | February 13, 2013 | Daniel Greenfield

I recall Obama talking a lot about “Nation-Building at Home” instead of abroad, but like every other word that comes out of his mouth, that was another lie.

While Barack Hussein Obama is firing 20,000 Marines as part of his massive purge of the United States military to “save money”, he’s also fighting to send $700 million to the terrorists of the Palestinian Authority.

On Feb 8th, Obama issued yet another waiver for Palestinian Authority aid, claiming that sending money to the corrupt undemocratic terrorist kleptocracy that refuses to negotiate a peaceful solution was “important to the national security interests of the United States.”

and f-16s to egypt.

I forget the number of F-16s to Egypt, but Barry is also giving them about 200 of our tanks, too... I think they are Abrams tanks.

Absolutely outrageous.

All the Military personnel who passed their Evals last year WERE NOT promoted, and now they are gutting their health care.

Retired over 65 use Tricare for Life as secondary to Medicare...both are rationed. Unless you can get your drugs on a base you pay co-pays. For the past 2 years they have gone up. This years raise was $5 for lowest, usually generic, $12 went to $17, $25 went to $44. And if you have a health issue like Peripheral Neuropathy that is not diabetic caused, you have to pay full cost out of your pocket for shoes or orthotics your doctor considers necessary for you. And they are NOT cheap.

Retiree’s are on the same COLA schedule as SS which means they have had 1 pay raise in 4 years, about $40 a month. Not even a tank of gas for a week.

If the Palis didn’t have foreign “aid” money, they would have no choice but to actually get real jobs, and to emigrate to where the jobs were.
