Just great. Why does the US think this "appartus" has been destroyed in the first place? CAUSE IT WAS A TARGET DURING SOME OF ISRAEL'S COUNTER-TERRORIST operations. THESE "security" people SUPPORT terrorists, help them, and hide them. IDF found evidence in buildings of the "preventative security" offices during its operations. It found documents, it found Kassam Rockets, granades, and other weapons used by the terrorists and papers showing these weapons being given to them. After all the fight Israel has put up to them, the US is giving them money to get stronger. Have they seen them fight terror? Or is this some "game" the Bush Administration is playing? They are not playing with basketballs, but with lives. This type of stupid behivior is where the PLO got all its equipment and weapons to committ terrorism during the Oslo years, however, that time it came mostly from Israel due to the Accords. Now America is making the same mistake. More Israelis and MORE AMERICANS will be killed as a result. We might as well place ourselves on the State Dept. list of state sponsors of terrorism, cause by this move, we are actually giving the financial backing to terrorists who have killed thousands of Jews and others.

BTW: This is also reported on Maariv newsticker and Yideot Ahronot news ticket (2 daily newspapers of Israel).

If only the US government would attach audits to that money. If they can audit the heck out of US firms when they pay them for legitimate services. Why can't they audit the PA when they give them money?

"Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists. From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime."

Are we now a hostile regime to ourselves?

[DoughtyOne]

Okay. I say we put our government on notice. If this money is used to train and arm a group, and they attack Israel in any way, then the officals who approved of it should step down. EOS

If Israel is willing to go along with this, I'm fine with it. But if it falls through, I want the embiciles who were associated with it in any way, fired!

From America's hands right into Yassar's Swiss Bank account.

The roadmap to hell is paved with good intentions.

Is this the same or a different funding?

About 2 years ago, shortly after 9-11, there was discussion of 100-300 million from the US to PA.

Is this an annual donation to the Arafat Retirement Fund?

If this is a joke, it's a bad one. If this is true, Bush should be called on it and the people responsible should not only loose their jobs they should be tried under the Patriot Act as supporters of terrorism. If Bush is complicit in this, put him on trial too.

[appalachian_dweller]

Unbelievable. Just unbelievable! Just WHO is responsible for this?

This will come back to haunt us in a very bad way.

I hate to say it, but now WE need a regime change.

[Courier]

This thread should get a thousand posts. All howling.

Inviting Hamas into the Palestinian government, if without them it wasn't bad enough, and then giving their armed forces 300 Million American taxpayer dollars, all with the acquiescence of the Bush Administration, is at the very least as bad as committing perjury and getting a BJ.

I dare someone to dispute me.

But the thousand posts won't show up because no one wants to face the truth about Bush.

US Gives 300 Million To PA Security Services
21:47 Jun. 18, '03 / 18 Sivan 5763


(IsraelNN.com) PA sources report that the US has given the PA Internal security services headed by terrorist Muhammad Dahlan 300 million dollars to help rebuild the PA’s security services. In addition Denmark has donated various equipment as well as bulletproof cars to the PA. Of late Dahlan has recruited 1100 men from various security sources and placed them under his direct command as part of his rebuilding program. To this point PA security has acknowledged itself to be incapable of guaranteeing security if given charge of more territory.

[lilylangtree]

More taxpayers money to line araRAT's pockets to keep up his wife and offspring living in Parisian luxury.

[MilitaryBuff]

Humm...

1980s: US gives Afgans arms/money to fight Soviets
2001-: US invades Afganistan,re-arms Afgan army

1980s: US gives Iraq arms/money to fight Iran
2003-: US invades Iraq

2003: US Gives money to the PA(so they can buy arms)
Near Future: ?????

I'm begining to detect a pattern...does anyone else see it?

[A Navy Vet]

Did I somehow wake up in a parallel universe? What the h#ll is Bush doing? Arming the PA? Billions to third-world cesspools for AIDS? CFR? Patriot Act? Open borders? Biggest budgets ever?

The Consitution Party is really starting to look good to me.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Did locoweed get mixed in with the Bush Administration's feed? First they curse Israel's attack on a Hamas leader (while American forces carry orders to kill al-Qaeda and Saddam sympathizers), then back-pedal like mad when they're called on their outrageous hypocrisy. Now we're financing Palestinian terrorism. GW is pissing me off this month.

[Bobby777]

wonder how much of that will fall into the hands of Al-Quaeda?

[billbears]

Some more of that strategery we keep hearing about. Wonder what the plan is behind this?

As predicted, this is only the 60th post.

The United States gives $300,000,000 to terrorists, who just yesterday deliberately murdered a 7 year old child, and no one cares.

There are hundreds of posts in every thread about some guy who may have killed his wife, which doesn't touch any of our lives.

Several hundred posts about George Bush in jeans.

Every stupid statement by a politician, especially a Democrat, gets hundreds of posts.

We are supposedly in a fight against terrorism.

Palestinians invented this terrorism.

They cheered 3000 of us going up in smoke.

They are negotiating to have a Government of PLO, Islamic jihad, Hamas and assorted other scum at Israel's throat.

THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT IS GIVING THEM $300,000,000 TO ARM THEMSELVES. DO YOU CARE?

Lets see that Bush in jeans photo again so we have what to discuss.
