UN backing Palestine takeover?

[arnegrim]

It's exactly the kind of situation that the United Nations Development Program was set up to deal with, and the U.N. is spending millions of dollars there every year.

But FOX News has discovered that not all that cash is going to alleviate poverty. Instead, some of it is funding a Palestinian political campaign under the slogan, "Today Gaza, tomorrow the West Bank and Jerusalem."

Both the West Bank and Jerusalem are disputed areas, yet it is U.N. money that is paying for posters, t-shirts, even bumper stickers bearing that slogan. On Tuesday, as Israeli security forces clashed with angry Jewish settlers protesting their eviction from the Gaza Strip, Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia wore a T-shirt saying, "Today Gaza. Tomorrow the West Bank and Jerusalem."

Is it willful or are they being taken advantage of?

Willful, I think. Or ignorance - whatever, it amounts to the same thing. I saw this story the other night. The fellow was questioned several times about using the money for political stuff and each time he squirmed and tried to shoehorn political $$ into survival $$. This is going to be like the Oil for Food gravy-train!

The UN is run by a bunch of thugs. Guess who is the head of the human rights in the UN?

This is the same UN that pocketed money meant for Iraq's infrastrucutre. I think it is a case of 'what they do'.
