Liars, damned liars, and palestinian spokesliars
The palestinians have been telling the world that the lack of funds is causing flood, famine, earthquake, crises — and oh yeah, a health crisis within the PA. So Israel said they’d transfer $50 million worth of medicines to the PA to stave off any potential health crisis.
Eff you, the pals said. Give us the cash instead.
Several weeks ago, Israel turned to the Palestinians through the WHO in a bid to clarify which hospitals were in need of medical equipment and medications in order to purchase them with the money in its possession.
Israeli defense officials said that “the Palestinians’ stance reveals that there is no real health crisis in the PA and that they are trying to use the money for other needs.”
[...] The decision to purchase the medications and not give the Palestinians money was made by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, who sought to address the PA’s humanitarian problems, but to prevent the transfer of funds to the Hamas-led government which will use them as it pleases.
WHO representatives recently got back to Israel, saying that the Palestinians were not interested in receiving the medications. According to the representatives, the Palestinians are interested in cash for their own needs
Apparently, the health crisis is not as severe as the palestinians would have you believe. So don’t believe a word of it when you read in the media about palestinians dying for lack of medical aid. If they’re dying, it’s because the leadership wants them dead. Better to show off corpses from “Israeli oppression” than let their people live healthy, happy lives.
Can the depravity get much worse?
I’m betting yes.

A sane Isreal government would not even give the Palestinians a broken VCR.

Hamas has stockpiled 10,000 new ak-47s, more than a ton of TNT, a million rounds of rifle ammunition, hundreds of RPGs, and some anti-aircraft missiles. And i believe the ’starving’ average Pali is just fine with all of that. They are Amalek and should meet a similar fate.

This is exactly the same behavior as the guy on the corner with the “Will Work for Food” sign who won’t actually accept any work or food, he just wants money.

Li’l Mamzer,
Remember, that was mostly stockpiled in Rafiah, Sinai for the “border breakthorough” ( a week of vehicles going back and forth from Sinai to Gaza), after Israel left Gaza, under the watchful gaze of Egypt and the State Department.
This following for a reminder to the perfidious behaviour of politicians:
