For all the US showering the PalArabs with billions of dollars in aid since 1993, the PalArabs have not returned any understanding towards, let alone affection to America. They still blame the US for not delivering Israel to them on a silver platter.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Good to know how the $2.2 billion is being spent!

So, let's see if we get this straight:

1.) 0-bama's State Department funds Phakestinian-Arab media which praises Islamofascist "martyrs".

2.) 0-Bama's State Department de-funds the Iran Human Rights Documentation Center, which exposes the despotic Iranian Regime's repression of their own people.

Yep, it's pretty clear, just from that, what the US Scumbag-In-Chief thinks is important.....

It is not just the media that our state department has been funding; It is the whole PA.
There seems to be indications that the State Dept. pressured Abbas on Goldstone. This is good, but not near enough. If we are paying, we need more in return.

We have Carter to thank for Hamas....and Chavez of course.

Took the liberty of emailing the State Dept a question concerning "funding in the ME" and included some of your post. Told them I was just trying to verify the info before passing it along to all my friends. Think I'll get a response?
