UN: $550 Million to Gaza Despite Renewed Terror Tunnels
Arutz Sheva ^ | 9/9/14 | Ari Yashar

The United Nations (UN) and Palestinian Authority (PA) on Tuesday called for international donors to supply $550 million to the Hamas terror enclave of Gaza, despite the fact that Hamas has already restarted construction on its terror tunnels to attack Israel.

The appeal seeks to repair damage caused in the 50-day Operation Protective Edge, which started in July after Hamas launched a rocket war on the Jewish state.

"The scope of damage and devastation is unprecedented in the Gaza Strip," said UN Humanitarian Coordinator James Rawley in a statement, reports AFP. "The crisis is far from over."

Rawley and PA Deputy Prime Minister Mohammed Mustafa said $551 million was needed for food, clean water, healthcare and education. They did not outline what type of supervision - if any - would prevent the Hamas terror government from using the funds for more nefarious causes.

However, Mustafa revealed that not all world countries are blithely ready to sink massive funds into the Hamas terrorist government.

"Some of the donating countries are worried about the condition on the ground; the reconstruction won't occur as long as the Palestinian Authority doesn't receive control over all aspects of life in the Gaza Strip," Mustafa said, according to AP.

Over 30 terror tunnels were destroyed by the IDF in the course of the operation, each costing millions of dollars and built with construction materials sent to Gaza for supposedly civilian projects.

yes, a reward for bombing the damnedjoos again, and almost succeeding

Obama will add another $400 Billion (at least) to what he gave the terrorists last year

also, a couple of gulf states run by terroristas will kick in a couple trillion more

result: the gaza terrorists will have several trillion dollars to rearm and attack their damnedjoos again, and soon too!

practice makes perfect

try, try again

Those binary liquid concoctions that turn into huge volumes of expanding solid plastic foam might be worth a try, too.

Are you sure practice makes perfect? They’ve been at it for nearly a century now, and here in Efrat the air raid alerts would have been funny if they hadn’t been so dull. Of course, as perfect as they may be at it, our Ally always foils them.

admittedly the Arabs have proven to (most of the time) be damned poor fighters (probably because they have nothing legit to fight for, going only on their crazy notion of Satan giving them 72 virgins and all that.... and maybe they really don’t belive it all that much?)

anyway,
I’m sick and tired of Israel giving her enemies so many repeated opportunities to try to destroy her and her people.
Earlier in history, this was due to force, pressure from USA.
But now that Isr has her seven kinds of Samson defenses,
she really can “just say no” when some enemy-in-drag foreign leader tries to get her to commit suicide, withdraw from more land, or whatever.

Isr needs to take out the bombs and missiles amassed on her northern border, next.
methinks anyway.
