Do you have a problem with the US giving 300 million to rebuild Gaza?

Or how about the 600 million to the Palestinian Authority? It seems to me that the current administration has forgotten that we are in bad economic times with this type of gift to repair a war torn area in which we did not send troops. I think we should ask the Palestinian Authority to help rebuild Iraq and ask Israel to help with the war in Iraq to see if they are as willing to help US as we are to help them.
Is this 900 million dollars an attempt by the Obama administration to buy friendship? If it is remember that we have been buying friends in Saudi for years. The plan worked so well that on 9/11 Saudi terrorist took American planes and used them as weapons against innocent civilians.

Peoples Republic you know where the money will come from. The tax payers will once again get stuck with the tab for something that the government has no right to tax them for. It is another case of taxation without representation.

I have a problem with the US sending money anyplace right now when we are borrowing from China for this massive stimulus.
I couldn't believe my ears when I heard Hillary was in Egypt this week promising the 900 million.

I wish they would spend 900 million to rebuild just one major city in the USA that was in need of a "face-lift". Think about what that would do for jobs and tourism.
What about spending 900 million on checks sent to all those living in poverty on Social Security. There are seniors eating in soup kitchens and eating cat food as they can't afford meals. Give me a break.

$300 million just so it can can blown up again the next time Israel wants to beat on the poor bastards living in Gaza. Money shouldn't be going to either group until they act like adults.

Consider Hamas is getting the money I would say that is a problem.
Look all the millions Arafat diverted to his own wants and needs.
This will be a bumper crop for missiles to fire into Israel for them.
