Clinton Pledges $900 Million at Gaza Rebuilding Conference

Wow! That's another $10 million for weapons to kill Israelis, and another $890 million going directly into the personal bank account of whichever terrorist is currently leading the Palestinians in Gaza.

How nice.

Or maybe I'm wrong, but when Arafat died, he was a billionaire (possibly due, I'm sure, to the excellent investment advice he was getting from Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Chuck Schumer, Dianne Feinstein, and Hillary Clinton)...

Our very liberal Jewish atty at work sure did. I told him I was aghast at the prospect of a communist in the WH and he told me he came from a long line of NY Jewish communists. Really shocked me, but after some web research, I was surprised how many Jewish commies there are.

I mentioned this billion dollar gift to Hamas to him on Weds this week and he promptly changed the subject to his new dog. Made me laugh.

Since there's a Clinton involved, and it's not their money, you wonder how much of a 'kickback' they might be getting...

The magnitude of this pledge is astounding.

The 2008 GDP of Gaza (including the West Bank) is estimated by the CIA Factbook to be US$6,600,000,000 (at the official exchange rate).

https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/gz.html

The pledged funding stated in this article is US$900,000,000.

This works out to approximately 14% of Gaza's entire GDP!!!.

Talk about jump-starting an economy.

This is large scale (terrorist) nation building.

$900 billion for buying weapons from Iran, North Korea, Red China, Venezuela and the Russians, to attack Israel and to give to terrorists to attack our troops. Stunning that our government is arming our enemies to kill my fellow soldiers!!!!

Can it get any worse than this?

In all probability, yes... yes, it will. With our money, no less. I just hate this crap.

Condoleeza Cartoon Shows Her Pregnant with Monkey

http://www.shortnews.com/start.cfm?id=56082

As US Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice attends the Middle East over the continuing conflict, it appears that some local newspapers are producing some insensitive cartoons—with Palestinian newspaper outlets being accused of outright racism.

The caricature depicts Rice as pregnant, with the image of a monkey in her abdominal region.

This just keeps getting scarier and scarier. Wow! Who would have ever thought we would turn our backs on Israel.

Uh.....we have a president named "Hussein" , and you expected otherwise?

"Woe to those nations that go against my people Israel."
The U.S. is going to suffer greatly if this money ends up in the hands of Hamas. Expect something devastating if this money is used against Israel.

And while the Obama administration wants to micromanage every company that takes government money, who is going to micromanage the Gaza money? We have bungee cords, not strings, attached to money given to corporate America, but the Gaza money will just be tossed into the air and however it lands will be fine with the Obama administration.
BO stinks more with every passing day.

Both! This pissin our children and grand children’s money away to fund our enemies attacking our friends is beyond belief. Now if it were going to Israel to fund a 100-1 missile response I’d think it well spent.

Sorry, but you don’t have to pray for Israel. Maybe some of her people, but not for the nation. The Word has their back, and He will prevail against all the armies of the son of man.

Pray for us instead, for it is becoming increasingly clear that the majority of this nation have sided against The Word, and we will all suffer for it...
