#1 Is very simple. You give money no questions asked, we take money do what we want. Is going on for years.
How hard to understand...INFIDEL?

#2 nah, this was to be expected. You want to make it so Hamas cant pay anyone, and so their authority collapses. You want to do that without, as far as possible, creating images of starving, sick, civvies. It may not be possible to thread that needle, but its not time to give up yet.

#3 Give them aid in kind and let the press watch Hamas selling sacks of wheat to raise money to buy ammunition.

#4 drop loaves of bread. Hamas will still starve the kiddies for photo ops for all your logic-challenged, hand-wringing, liberal friends who will, as usual, happily play the role of the dhimmi.

#6 From this day forward, due to my love for humanity, I will be saving all my leftovers and sending them to the Paleos.

They should be good and rank by the time they get there.

#7 Images of civvies who are sick and starving as a direct consequence of their irresponsible decisions might well be an effective means of making sure they don't continue to make such decisions which threaten powerful world interests. The sooner the international community stops rewarding destructive behavior, the sooner muslims will come to realize that abandoning common sense is suicidal.

#8 Take the $400 million US aid and route it those more deserving, like Liberians, Congolese, Burmese and Haitians. Then there is my favorite Thai charity, Bombs For Buddhists.

#10 Not a cent. It is not unreasonable to ask an aspiring country to renounce violence. It's a huge stretch of sanity to expect a democratic country to recognize it's neighbours and agree to live in peace. Democratic countries do so as a non-question.

If Pals want us to recognize their "democractic" government, they must accept these simple facts of life. Expecting your enemies to continue to pay for your lives, all you consume, the basics you need for life while accepting your death threats against them is NUTS. Think it out. Then get to work on creating a viable nation that takes care of itself and lives in peace with it's neighbours.
