The crunch HAS NOT been on. They get billions upon billions. The U.N. doesn’t have the balls or brains, I’m not sure which to actually monitor what happens to all of it each year. Money that comes from the U.S. and E.U., funneled through the U.N. for refugees. The agency in UNRWA. The money goes to Gaza, Egypt, Jordan and the West Bank.

Egypt and Jordan “refugees” shouldn’t get a dime because they are citizens of their own countries, not refugees. They should be getting benefits from their own governments.

I do have a solution. Start monitoring the money that goes into the black hole of UNRWA. The Palestine textbooks and curriculum funded by UN money still tells of a Middle East history that doesn’t include Jews or Israel on the map. The Clintons fought the U.N. on this during Bill’s administration and didn’t get too far. I have a ton of links on that if you’re interested.

The funding is indeed a great issue. If it did went to infrastructure and welfare, i think it would harm the Hamas greatly.
