#3 Actually, it's none of the above, for the simple reason that UNWRA intends to keep the Paleos wretched and seething. The more miserable the Paleos, the keener the blade held to Israel's throat.

#4 UNWRA intends to keep the Paleos wretched and seething.

You give UNWRA far too much credit, Sea. They couldn't intend anything if it was the intendingest day of their lives and they had an electrified intending machine. It is the Arab world that intends to ensure continued deprivation for the Palestinians. Notice how they refuse to absorb the Palestinians into adjacent lands and end the bloodshed? Happy people don't jihad or kill the dreaded Jews anywhere near as much as a bunch of wretched psycho losers. One look is all it takes to know that Islam detests prosperity.
