U.N. Applauds Biden Admin for $250 Million Aid Gift to Palestinians

The Biden administration was applauded Thursday by the U.N. agency for so-called Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, after it offered $250 million in funding while sidestepping a 2018 law that prevents U.S. taxpayer dollars from supporting the Palestinian Authority.

“UNRWA could not be more pleased that once again we will partner with the United States to provide critical assistance to some of the most vulnerable refugees across the Middle East,” the agency’s commissioner general, Philippe Lazzarini, said in a statement seen by AFP.

“The U.S. contribution comes at a critical moment, as we continue to adjust to the challenges the Covid-19 pandemic presents.”

As Breitbart News reported, the State Department’s announcement of the funding flow confirmed weeks of speculation about a “quiet” effort to restart finance for the Palestinians — even as the American public struggles during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic:

Why don’t the Nazi bitches at the U.N. give the palestinian $250 million dollars? That shouldn’t be a job for the American taxpayers. We should not be subsidizing terrorist organizations. That’s the U.N.’s job.

The amount of money we hand out to other countries while neglecting our own is astounding and Biden has the nerve to want to raise our taxes. We have plenty of money already. It needs to be used in the USA. Our schools are crumbling and our homeless problem is enormous. I hate these people. It’s nothing but money laundering back to the politicians pockets.

another scheme to send our money overseas to pay off political hacks and receive kickbacks

In the US, 1 out of 11 pays for 90%+ of all taxes in the country. we few are supposed to continue working 60-80 hr weeks and hand over 40-55% of our earnings to the fedgov which turns around and throws it away.

besides the threat of violence by the IRS ... why exactly should we continue paying when we know we don’t even have a vote anymore?

Forget impeaching Byedone. He and his cronies should be tried and hanged for treason. My opinion only.

And how much did the UN feed “the big fraud effort” back in November?? How much have they paid “the big guy” under the table in kickbacks? Inquiring minds would like to know.

$250 million dollars for just one group of terrorists and the gift to Iranian terrorists will be in the billions.

“...$250 million dollars for just one group of terrorists and the gift to Iranian terrorists will be in the billions....”

But, but, but.....this is what 80+ million Americans voted for and want: higher taxes so their hard-earned money can go to foreign terrorist organizations. So they say.
Most popular vote in history too...so they say.
I wonder if they lied...again?? /S
On the bright side, the orange man isn’t tweeting mean things to people. /s
