Middle East and terrorism, occasional political and Jewish issues Ping List. High Volume If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Not to mention billions from the EU and the billions contributed to UNWRA, the UN's terror supporting arm dedicated solely to palestinian refugees.

There is no such thing as a “palestinian”. It’s a fiction.

Mahmoud Abbas = Abu Mazen = financier of the 1972 terrorist attacks at the Munich Olympics

Several Jewish athletes were killed when a grenade was tossed into a helicopter (IIRC)

The terrorists were originally going to steal a jet airliner, but the German anti-terrorist group pretending to be the aircrew backed out (according to one documentary - “One Day in September”)

I had “One Day in September” - maybe I still do, not certain

So, enough money for the US to build an entire wall on our southern border.
How much money do we give out in total?
Our veterans should be using gold toilets with the money we save.

That’s because the money is stolen by the peole who are in charge.

Why do we send money to countries who hate us? Why not try letting them hate us for free?

Its a corrupt welfare state, kept alive for political purposes.

Think of it like Detroit, except in the Levant

Biden should return to Lahaina town to ask the displaced residents there for more donations to send to Palestine.

That’s not a bug, that’s a feature of American “aid”.

See, Ukraine.

The P Society did not receive a dime, aid all went into the pockets of top officials.

There is no such thing as Palestinian “leaders”. They’re just glorified thieves, and that’s where all the money went.

You would think that after the corrupt Guacamolean Banana Republics of the 60’s that we would realize that ANY Third World Shit Hole we’re giving money to that it would be high jacked by the Head Nig Nog and his cronies.

Re: "There is no such thing as a "Palestinian." It's a fiction."

I read some Middle East political commentary last week, but do not recall the source.

The author urged Israel to change its name to Palestine since the Jewish people were living in the eastern Mediterranean for centuries before the Arabs arrived.

LOL - the UN and the current Palestinians would go bananas!
