#2 Hamas expected to fill its coffers with Moolah money, but, as with any other Mooslum cause, the Moolahs and tyrants don't give a fuck about their Islamist breatheren.

Now the Hamas PM is trying to make nice to get the more dependable Western bucks.

#3 Somewhere between 60% and 80% of all the money in circulation in Paleostan comes from those salaries. Whatever remains of their economy must already be imploding with the late payments.

#4 I fully expect the EU to buckle in short order. Too many muslims in country, too little sympathy for Israel, too little backbone.

#8 hey Listen to the yappy dog!...he prefers to be banned. Apparently he has no self-control and doesn't have the will power to stay away on his own. Help him out, ban him.

#13 They hoped the Saudis would fund them. But now what would you do in place of the Saudis? Spend money in air conditionning the harem and to hell with Palestinians or giving it to the Palestinians and risk heat-induced heart failure every time you try to have a little fun?

#15 They get $1 billion a year in foriegn aid, and have been for years. They don't have a dime to their names, no industry, exports, nothing. No way to generate money, only ways to beg for more from other countries. WTF is their deal? This is the worlds largest welfare state. They are parasites living off handouts from the whole world. It boggles my mind how they could go through so much money for so many years and still not have a damn thing to show for it.

#16 I hate to be a pessimist, but this is probably the fiftieth time someone has predicted that the Paleos will be out of money within a month or two. I'll believe it when they're reduced to bartering.

#18 WTF is their deal?

a) They figure we owe it to them.
b) They do it because they can get away with it.

#19 Yup, lotp. "The world owes us a living because we are fighting can't defeat the Jooooooooooooooooooooos!"

#20 It's Victimhood, an ugly parasite that lives off the largess of the left wing. This parasite is loath of responsibility, therefore, it's not found on jobsites, around investers, attending classes, or partaking in creative activity. It complains frequently, and is often confused with the whiner family of non-parasites.

#21 You know if a bunch of the Hamas/Fatah civil servants blew themselves up at work it would save the goverment a ton of money. Just a suggestion.
