Americans just gave every Gazan $200

It’s a sizable bump from the already sizable amount of assistance that the Palestinian Arabs have been getting from the rest of the world.

The current pledges add up to around $5 billion. That comes out to something like $2,700 for every Gazan. That’s not bad considering that it’s around half the local yearly salary.

Over $200 million of that money is coming from the United States with another $200 million in “humanitarian” aid. Or to put it another way, Americans just gave every Gazan 200 bucks.

Of course that’s a fraction of the various trails of foreign aid that flow from the US to the West Bank and Gaza. We went from $75 million a year under Clinton to $360 million under Bush to $900 million in Obama’s first year. And that’s an incomplete accounting because it doesn’t take into account every loophole for funneling more money to terrorists.

Good thing we have so much money ourselves that we can dump a whole lot of it on Hamas terrorists.

    Each and every single American parasite and sellout with their finger prints on this should be driven out of government.
    And Republicans should demand to know from their candidates if they would be willing to drive them out?
    At least a presidential candidate would have the executive power to drive them out once elected even if they were “protected” by government rules.
    This government has demonstrated that rules and contracts are now subordinate to expediency and we need to expediently remove the collection of malignant tumors and parasites at the State Department responsible for this poison and insulting slap in the face of Middle America.
    If Repube candidates start hiding behind rules protecting federal employees, he’s nothing but a sell out waiting to happen. We need people willing to fight; not pansies looking to pose and bask in the light of media popularity.

      Yes, they have so many suicide-bomber-ready jobs that need to be funded.

    These are the most talented guys on the Earth making the most amount of money disappear the shortest time ever. Well Done! Btw: The UN’s anti-ebola fund could only collect $100.000. One can clearly see what’s important.

    Why are we giving a penny to these people? Until they recognize Israel’s right to exist not one cent should be sent their way. Hopefully when America elects a non-Muslim, non-anti-Israel President things will change. It can’t happen soon enough.

    The average wage in Egypt is $2/day. The ‘Palestinian refugees’ get ten times the average wages in the surrounding countries and nobody can figure out why they don’t want a nation to government – because the international welfare would dry up over night

    More welfare recipients. Probably going to some of the d*rtbags who cheered in the streets on 9/11
