#1 More aid? Uhh... "no".

Looming "disaster" is a feature, not a bug.

#2 And wasn't it just yesterday that the news from there was that all civil service salaries would be paid? Seems to me that if indeed that happens, then that should be at least a partial stimulus to get their economy sputtering along. And somewhere about the third or fourth turnover of that new money, there should be some new weaponry purchased. And then Israel can close the spigot just a wee bit tighter. Or not.

#4 Move the UN to the middle of the Sahara Desert.
Then see how the priorities change.

#5 I command an 80% reduction in water and power to Palestine and that ugly builing in N.Y.

#6 I think the U.N. should be headquartered in Brussels. They are so much smarter than us anyway, it just makes sense.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass boys!

#7 U.N. in Gaza has a lovely ring to it.

#8 I like the idea of relocating it to Gaza. I wonder how many countries would decrease their staff if we moved it there?

#9 ...in their annual emergency aid appeal for programs in the Gaza Strip and West Bank.

To me, nothing says summer's started more then the UN's annual emergency aid appeal for programs in the Gaza Strip and West Bank.

#10 Political hacks and terrorists simply don't know how to run a government. Leave it to the UN to think that throwing money at Gaza will solve everything.

#11 Dry up their bank accounts and "jobs". Maybe then most of the Paleos will self-deport to Jordan to do jobs Jordanians won't do.

#12 Good idea. Let the Paleos be the Mexicans of the Jordanian job market.

#13 Mom, I don't think the Paleos know how to do anything except seethe, reproduce, and enjoy gunsex.
