#1 The more land Israel gives up, the more the Palestinians will want. And we're springing for the check.

#2 WHat is amazing is the Israelis haven't hit up the diaspora for money specifically geared for relocation. I think if they did they would get beaucoup bucks.

They should hit up George Soros. And the Hollywood elite.

#3 I think they have wisely tried to minimalize politicizing overseas fundraising, in either direction. Theres enough social needs in Israel. Besides if the peacenik types really want to give for dovish stuff only, theres plenty of places to give. Back when I used to volunteer to make calls for federation, and some jerk said he wouldnt give cause of the "poor palestinians" i sometimes said, thats ok, are you giving to American Friends of Peace Now? Hang-up was the usual response.
