US Pledges Half a Billion Dollars to PLO
IsraelNN.com
The United States has announced its plan to donate 555 million dollars to the budget of the PLO as part of the Conference of Donors for a Palestinian State conference held Monday in Paris. The pledge includes 150 million dollars in direct funding for Abbas’ Fatah government.
Monday’s conference is expected to raise almost 6 billion dollars in aid for the PLO, which will be used to run local Arab infrastructure and plans for the next 3 years.
Israeli analysts have accused the United States of pressuring Israel to make concessions to the Arab world as part of US President George W. Bush’s goal to create a Palestinian state by the end of his term.
Wild Thing’s comment……..
Geez, why are we giving the Palestinians a single cent?
They are stepping up aid to Gaza, which is run by Hamas. It can get no more stupid than this. You are either with us, or with the terrorists. And now we know which the state department is with. Would we have given “food and medicine” to Nazi Germany during World War II? Would we have given $550 million to Vichy France during the same war?
And let’s not forget the approval of 900MM to Iran from the World Bank that comes out of US taxpayer dollars. The “terrorist sponsoring states” are getting rich off of the US.
Condi The Clueless. The Palestinians have made it clear they will NEVER recognize Israel. She’s dumb, blind and deaf.
This is so far beyond my understanding that I can hardly comment on it. That half a billion $$ would sure fix some strets and aging infrastructure in America. George Bush is a really big spender and is quick to give my tax $$ away around the world. He has pledged tens of billions of $$ to fight Aids and poverty in Africa. He threw money around in Central America to crooked governments to buy support for CAFTA.
These Palestinians are not going to like America one bit more for that money. They still want to destroy Isreal and that American money will help them.
Jesus was $OLD out by Judas to the high priests for 30 pieces of silver… Haven’t we learned anything yet about $$$ being the root of all evil? WTF is wrong with our country…and during a time of WAR?
that’ll buy a lot of rockets to shoot at Israeli schoolkids!
Bush and Rice have gone off the deep end and are directly supporting terrorism with American money and prestige. Unfortunately, the Israeli liberal Ehud Olmert government is a far too willing participant. This latest funding fiasco is even worse than it first appears.

And this is only a partial list of how Bush and Rice support terrorists.
Mark Krauss said it quite succinctly. “that’ll buy a lot of rockets to shoot at Israeli schoolkids!”
Double whammy, this sellout to our enemy and Prime Minister Gordon Brown’s capitulation on the 13th. What’s next, follow Clinton’s KLA lead and join al Qaeda?
Utter disgust describes my feelings right now.
Tom I agree 1000% with that you said.
drstrangeloveb52isok, I don’t think our country has learned from mistakes. I hate to say that but it is what shows up to be a fact.
Mark Krauss that is exactly right where the money will go.
Les, thank you so much for those links. It really breaks my heart the things they have done and said too.
If I had a friend like the USA is to Israel…well for me they would not be my friend any longer. I would have to put my foot down for good.
Jack,it sure is disgusting. It makes my tummy feel sick.
