Congressmen Want PA Probed for Ties with Terror

[vminfla]

Two Florida and New York Congress members have asked for an investigation to determine if the Palestinian Authority is using U.S. aid for terrorists.

The Congressmen also want the GAO to investigate whether any U.S. Economic Support Funds are being used by Abbas for his unilateral move to win recognition for the PA in the United Nations, a violation of the Oslo Accords and the death knell of the U.S.-sponsored ”peace process.”

“The United States does not provide economic support funds to the Palestinian Authority to build new homes for terrorists or fund President Abbas' anti-Israel campaign trips through Europe," said Deutch, who hails from Florida.

Their letter to Comptroller General Gene Dodaro stated, “Many of the released prisoners were convicted of orchestrating and carrying out Hamas-sponsored terrorist attacks in Israel, including the bombing of a Tel Aviv nightclub that killed 21 people, the attack on a Netanya hotel that killed 29 people, and the bombing of a Sbarro Pizzeria that killed 15 people. We are troubled by reports of President Abbas’ use of PIF funds to provide housing for these convicted terrorists….

1. How about probing Israel equally?

[vminfla]

2. I do not see much value in this

Israel, unlike the PA, does not have a policy of granting cash stipends to terrorists and building them houses with US money.

6. Go look up the Irgun and the Lehi.

Most (or nearly most, by now, but most a few decades back) of Israel's prime ministers have been members of terrorist groups.

7. Ha Ha

Your hilarious , you tried telling me 60 years was enough to forget the Holocaust.


Ha Ha Ha Ha

:wtf:

9. That is a black lie; please retract it. N.T.

[King_David]

12. No, it's a black lie.

I said that very few living German people bear any responsibility for the holocaust.

I did not say "The holocaust should be forgotten". I did not say anything approximating that, or anything that could be taken to imply it, and to suggest that I did is a lie of the worst kind; please admit that and apologise for it.

13. I only apologize for you thinking I misinterpreted what you said

I still however think you have a chutzpah saying we should remember that Jews were terrorists ...as well...60 yrs ago...in light of the linked post from yourself.

[Violet_Crumble]

14. You definately misrepresented what he said....

I clicked on the link you provided, only to find out that he hadn't said what you'd accused him of saying....

Of course Jews have been terrorists. Or don't you think the Stern Gang were terrorists?

[King_David]

16. Yep greater than 60 years ago

Got it ?

Good

;)

[Violet_Crumble]

17. Yr point being what? There's not some expiration date after 60yrs...

Besides, there's quite a few Jewish terrorists far more recently than that. Or don't you consider Kahane and his ilk to be terrorists?

18. So the Prussians can commit terror for the reformation of Prussia

3, 4, 5 generations removed....The arabs have repeatedly snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory multiple times when it came time for another arab state. At what point do you say Enough?

How about Prussia and Kurdistan? I do not see you waxing poetic over Kurdistan?

19. Sigh, (in a bored way)I don't feel like changing topic

In the direction you want.

3. Maybe for an encore

they can investigate whether the Soprano's have any connection to organized crime.

[vminfla]

4. Maybe for an encore

The can defund the PA, preventing it from redirecting US tax dollars for the fomention of terror.

[Donald Ian Rankin]

5. And this investigation will, of course, be entirely neutral and unbiased

And not at all a propaganda tool with instructions to come back with evidence that such ties exist, whatever it takes.

[King_David]

8. As Netral as your posts

Ha Ha Ha Ha

[Donald Ian Rankin]

10. Exactly.

However, whereas political advocacy is meant to push a political cause, factual investigation is not.

[holdencaufield]

15. Some unintentional honesty there. NT

[vminfla]

20. Facts already into evidence

Abbas used foreign aid money to provide stipends and homes for terrorists.

[shira]

21. Stop posting racist, bigoted stuff about the Palestinians! Oh wait, it's the PA...

Well, it's still wrong to criticize the PA because that's like criticizing all Palestinians!
