Try to find a charity organisation that helps the

Umm, howzabout the UN ;-p

From today's paper:

"Mr Hyde's United Nations reform bill of 2005 proposes that the

UN
implement various reforms and that failure to do so will result

in a
50% budget cut. The bill targets programmes, including the UN

Relief
and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees, which the Israeli

government
has been campaigning against."

Appears to me the Israelies would like to remove any form of hope

from
the Palestinians.



Actually it is the "Palestinians" who are their own worst enemy -

besides
which even their Arab "friends" consider them garbage...


Change the date to 1938 substitute Jews in appropriate place.



Except that the Jews in 1938 did not have UN resolutions in their
support, billions of dollars in aid from various governmental and NGO
sources over the years, the international community supporting their
goal of statehood...

Besides which the Jews by 1938 had achieved many fine accomplishments
over the centuries, mightily enriching world culture. Contrast that
with the "Palestinians", whose sole claim to fame so far has been
blowing up innocent civilians...

And isn't it "odd" that the "Palestinians" are treated as absolute
pariahs by their Arab "brother" nations, all those vast oil riches and
many of the "Palestinians" are still rabble living in squalid refugee
camps. My, my...couldn't a wealthy place like say the UAE take in at
least a few hundred thousands of them and set them up in comfort as a
fine humanitarian gesture? It would be a mere bagatelle for a well -
off place like the UAE...

I really wonder whether some of you Europeans consider any history
before making your flip comments.

Jordan)

Best not to let your agenda be TOO obvious Greg. There is always a
chance that someone will believe you, but that chance is not improved
when you pad out your argument with blatant Zionist propaganda.

Heck after Gulf War I what did
the Kuwaitis do to their "Palestinian" brothers? Kicked them all out

of
Kuwait lock, stock, and barrel...


A lot of Palestinians collaborated in the Saddam ocupation as
informants, guards, and even manning checkpoints. They were not exactly
popular after that.

The "Palestinians" (who are actually refugees, their real home is in

Jordan)
are just used by the Arabs as a means to constantly wail about the

Evil
Israelis, they are cynically used as pawns. With the exception of a

few
going to Lebanon and Jordan, none of these refugees are permitted to

settle
in any of the Arab states, they are unwanted. Heck, there are more

of these
people settled in Hamburg or in Dearborn, Michigan USA than there are

in the
UAE or Saudi or wherever...


Most of the best and better educated Palestinians left for Jordan,
Lebanon, Saudi, UAE, etc. at an early stage and blended perfectly with
the local population.

Radicals are not welcome anywhere.

Saying bad things about the Palestinians does not make you a Zionist.

Compared to most of that part of the world it is too. It's a bitter
irony to some that Israeli Arabs, despite the prejudices that they
certainly suffer, have a better standard of living and quality of life
than most of their neighbours.
