US to pledge $500 million to PA
2007-12-15
The United States will pledge about $500 million for the moderate-led Palestinian government in the West Bank when Arab, European and other nations meet next week, US officials said Friday.

The money would go toward a goal of $5.6 billion that former British Prime Minister Tony Blair hopes to raise to rescue the tattered Palestinian economy and reinforce institutions that would become the backbone of any eventual independent Palestinian state.

#6  This money has to come from Congressional legislation. Condi can friggin pledge all she wants. Our senators and representatives need to know that it is unacceptable to give these idiot terrorists a dime of our hard earned deficit taxes. We need to write to our embarrassing officials congress critters.

#1  We should issue only scrip, with which they can buy food, but no bullets, and medicine, but no explosives. No hard currency that can be converted directly into destructive endeavors...
