#7 Because violent crazy folk need money too.

This just enables the madness and they just refuse to see it. Palestine should get nothing until they try really really hard to act like a responsible country and not a bunch of death-cultists.

#13 "more than 40 UN-affiliated organizations and NGOs working in Gaza Strip and the West Bank"
Well, at least somebody is working there.

Memo to Paleos:
You've had six decades on the dole to get your act together and all you have done is snarl and bite like a bad dog. That's why you're behind a fence like a bad dog. Eqypt doesn't want you. Jordan doesn't want you. Syria doesn't want you. Iran doesn't want you. Saudi Arabia doesn't want you. If they wanted you, you'd be there. Get a clue. More territory and more handouts are not going to solve your problems. You are the only ones who can solve your problems and they're solved by being cooperative and productive. We're watching for signs of civilization -- and we're not seeing any. Request denied.
