The House Foreign Affairs Committee heard expert testimony detailing the Palestinian Authoritie's payment of funds from its budget in assistance to imprisoned and dead terrorists and their families.

Yigal Carmon, the president and founder of the Middle East Media Research Institute says that most of the funds come from donor countries like the US and western Europe, making them virtually complicit in attacks on Israeli citizens.

The Obama administration spends our taxpayer money funding terrorism.

"And? So? Well?"

The USA gives the ‘Palestinians’ somewhere around $400 million in direct aid every year.

Since the mid-1990s the USA has given them somewhere around $4 billion to $5 billion in aid.

It’s almost impossible to nail down exact aid figures because a lot of USA handouts to the ‘Palestinians’ (and other countries and groups) is hidden within a myriad of programs.

What the headline really should say is : “US Taxpayer spend $140 million a year to support terrorists and their families”.

[Cowboy Bob]

I hope President Trump stops ALL foreign aid. How many billions does the US piss away every year on foreign aid?

Let those countries continue to hate us without our support.

Wow, at that rate they’ll never catch up to the Saudis.
