With the inclusion of money for security, water, health care, education, and other services, the overall American investment to the Palestinians this year totals nearly $600 million.

A U.S. official said the additional $150 million is "new money" advanced from 2011 funds approved by Congress.

The money was "front-loaded" to help the Palestinians...

“With the inclusion of money for security....” In other words “weapons” and “suicide vests”.

THIS $150 million will be the $150 million that finally convinces them to love us. Really, this is the one, a new era of love for us will begin, unseen since they were dancing in the streets on 9/11. I’ve got a REALLY good feeling about this...

In the meanwhile, our government is cooking up ways to limit what we receive. I don't mind, welcome really, government handing out less to the American people. It does, however, anger me to have our government reward people who want to kill us while cutting what it promised to Americans who built this country.

oNe day a missile launch off the coast of California that is not anything to worry about that of unknown origin and the next day we give hundreds of millions of dollars to moslum terrorist. ????

Obama has just committed his latest treason: funding a state sponsor of terror. Who? The group running Gaza — Hamas.

Dirty rotten stinking SOB traitor in the White House does it again.

I'm sure none of that money will find its way into any Swiss bank accounts, nor will it be used to buy weaponry. Right? ....Right?

$13 trillion in debt and Obama is giving hundreds of millions of our tax dollars to people who celebrated on 9/11 and elected a terrorist gov't (Hamas).

This torques me and it’s late at night.
I like good news at this hour.

[Uncle Miltie]

MONEY....

....FUNGIBLE!!!

[Dogbert41]

We are in deep doo doo.

[rrrod]

this crap is coming to an end real soon

[skookum55]

I object to our funding of anti-American terrorists.

[stocksthatgoup]

Now that they have the money, where is the leverage?

All of Congress is very upset about this, just waiting for the news article saying so. (chirp, chirp)

[TheBattman]

What was it that GW said soon after 9-11? - something about those who support/fund terrorism.

$ we sent to the Pali-authority DOES, at least in part, go to the terrorists.

It’s not like Fatah is any better... Hamas is the party that stabs you in the chest. Fatah pretends to be your friend and then stabs you in the back. Given the choice, I’d rather have Hamas — at least you know they’re your enemy.
