The fact is, the entire Arab world is contemptuous of the Palestinians, whom they call Phillistines, never Palestinians.

Remember the Palestinians in Kuwait when Saddam invaded? When the Kuwaitis got their country back, there was a backlash too. The fact is, the Philllistines are the lowest rung on the ladder in that part of the world.

With all their oil wealth, the Sauds, Kuwaitis, Iranians, Qataris and others who claim to champion the Palestinian cause could subsidize the Palestinian population and raise the standard of living in the West Bank and Gaza Strip immensely through investment.

Instead, all their money goes to HAMAS and Islamic Jihad and families of suicide bombers.

Why? Because they don't give a hoot about the Phillistines. They really only want to see Israel wiped off the map.

Exactly, the Palis are proxy war cannon fodder for the Arabs. They couldn't give a rat's patoot about them.
