Egyptian or even Iranian money

Brand name: Charmin.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the only currency allowed in payment for a purchase was the United States dollar.

Either American, Egyptian or even Iranian money who are their puppetmasters.

Y’know, the larger US bills now have chips embedded in them. Last I heard, they were in the eye in the portrait. I’m sure that you have to get the antenna close to them to activate them … but how close?

He has been negotiating with them? Where was that covered. Info, please.

It was reported in the Guardian, and some other sources. Also, an OTR quote from a European diplomat was that some of Barry’s transitional team were in country already. Heard that in mid-November

Question: Where is the aid from the Red Crescent?

And why isn’t the muslim world b*tching about the lack of aid from its own?

The Red Crescent is the Red Cross is the Magen David Adom.

In other words, aid from Muslim countries, as well as Israel and the United States, are being funneled into Gaza under the auspices of the umbrella International Committee of the Red Cross. That aid is collected from individual “Movements” across the globe, including, for example, the UAE’s Red Crescent Society. Some of this aid has previously been used in ways not condoned by the international movement.

And why isn’t the muslim world b*tching about the lack of aid from its own?

I am beginning to believe that the Palestinian people are not the dupes that they are portrayed to be. This has been going on for too long. Surely the Palestinian people are not so stupid, as not to see the obvious. I think that maybe they have got the leaders that they want.

Just as we will shortly have the leader we want? The “economic bailout” seems to be flowing in the same direction in both places, methinks, funded from the same source — the “man on Main Street” as our various candidates put it during the recent election cycle.

You have to hand it to Hamas for their “creative” way of fundraising. Where ever things are not right the first thing I like to do is FTM (Follow the Money) to the source of imperfection, and, it looks like it is correct in this case as well.

I wonder if they know Bernard Madoff.

The Palestinian people are just cannon and propaganda fodder for the puppet terrorists Hamas and their puppet masters, the Iraninans and other anti-Jewish/anti-Israeli groups.

How do you think they learned to steal the aid packages?

Barry lent them some of Daley’s aldermen.

If the Palestinians are so poor and destitute, where did they get the money to buy the stolen aid from Hamas? I’m curious to find out just how much Hamas was able to steal from these fools.

Here’s a hint: Yassir Arafat, that selfless, Nobel prize-winning man of the people (those impoverished, downtrodden, perpetually victimized Palestinian people), died with hundreds of millions of dollars stashed away in various bank accounts around the world.

But like every other politician/crook in the world, he probably stole it “for the children.” It just somehow never made it to them. Funny how that always happens.

Barry better not negotiate with these animals. If he thinks he can and get away with it, he is misjudging the American people.

He is, and has been since last fall.

The peace people would then blame them for not picking up the litter in Albequerque.

They haven’t done that yet? Evil Zionists!

I condemn all acts of littering on both sides (but I especially condemn Israel for her repeated failures to heed the calls to choose a different path… and clean up the mess made by other, far nicer, people who litter only because Israel has oppressed them.)

Cue the pope! What? Oh, Hamas did this… move along, nothing to see here. (Call back when you figure out a way to blame Israel for this too.)

…or George Bush.

A-Men. When this stuff comes up, people come and ask me my opinion (since I’ve been to the Middle East a few times). I usually avoid convos like that, but sometimes, I make an exception and explain how it is.
They look at me like I have grown two heads and tell me that what I say is irrelevant since it’s clearly supporting Israel, more often than not.
The Israelis could cure cancer, AIDS and all sorts of diseases, help the Palestinians set up their own country, and negotiate peace with all their neighbours. The peace people would then blame them for not picking up the litter in Albequerque.
