#4 Paying salaries and other operating costs alone costs the government about $150 million a month, a large part of which has traditionally been financed through foreign aid and assistance.

That's the ticket! If there was not the dole supplied through foreign aid and assistance for more than half a century, there won't be any Palestinian issue. It shows how thins whole thing is artificially plugged into a life support system. Brain dead, as it is, to boot.

I think that I'll establish a Republic of North Eastern Okie and live on largese of foreign beneficiaries, skimmin' million here and there into an overseas bank account. Before long, I could be a billionaire!

Wait... won't work, I don't hate or kill joos!
