Why is Obama giving $ 400 million dollar stimulus package for terrorists?
Just when you thought that the Obama administration had become about as idiotic as was humanly possible, Obama has set out to prove us all wrong. Considering the massive failure and overwhelming unpopularity of the stimulus package passed in 2008, and the economy that just keeps getting worse, Obama’s come up with a brilliant new plan: give $400 million of our money to Palestine and make Israel loosen blockade restrictions! It’s a stimulus package for terrorists!
The United States will contribute $400 million in development aid to the Palestinian territories and work with Israel to loosen its embargo on Gaza, President Barack Obama said Wednesday.
Obama’s announcement came after White House talks with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. The money will be used to build housing, schools, water and health care systems in both the Palestinian Authority-controlled West Bank and Gaza, which is ruled by the Palestinian Islamic movement Hamas.
Obama called the situation in Gaza “unsustainable,” and said the United States would work with its European allies, Egypt and Israel to find a “new conceptual framework” for the Israeli blockade of Gaza.
“We agree Israelis have right to prevent arms from coming into Gaza,” Obama said. But he said “new mechanisms” were needed to allow more goods to reach the territory – and he repeated that the long-term solution was a permanent deal creating “a Palestinian state side-by-side with an Israel that is secure.”
Right. Surely this must be the best time to loosen the Gaza blockade, fresh off of the controversy of the Gaza flotilla that was armed to the teeth and filled with terrorists who ambushed and attacked IDF soldiers. Makes perfect sense.
If that idiocrity wasn’t enough for you, there’s also the sheer lunacy of throwing away $400 million to a terrorist state… especially when our economy is doing as badly as it is. Obama doesn’t need to be doing this, if for no other reason than because we cannot freaking afford it. As Exurban Jon puts it,
Let me get this straight. Our economy has cratered. Unemployment is nearly 10 percent. The national debt is expected to exceed our gross national product by next year. And we’re giving $400,000,000 to our mortal enemies in Gaza?
$400,000,000 to the Hamas-led death cult allied with Iran and Syria? $400,000,000 to the people who celebrated the destruction of the twin towers? $400,000,000 to rain thousands more rockets upon Israeli women and children?
The Right, the Left and everyone in between needs to raise hell. This. Cannot. Happen.
