And the POTUS wants to give Hamas 900 million dollars through the UN. I was hoping beyond hope that the US would never be associated with the nations of the rest of the world that turned against Israel.

After it goes through all the greedy thieves at the UN they will get about 20,000 and that will go straight to Hamas.

What did you call George Bush's objective to create a separate Palestinian state?

I believe you heard that, but I dont' believe it. What newcast did you hear it on?

Here is what I found:

SHARM EL SHEIKH, Egypt—Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Monday will propose an aid package of over $900 million for the Palestinians, but only $300 million will be earmarked to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza, according to State Department spokesman Robert Wood.

The rest of the funds that Clinton will pledge—roughly $600 million—will go to support the Palestinian Authority, headquartered on the West Bank, in an effort to bypass Hamas, the militant group that rules Gaza, Wood said. The U.S. government has no direct dealings with Hamas.

That is a far cry from 500 billion. Is this simply Obama haters reporting false numbers to stir up trouble, or an honest mistake?

Every bit you just quoted falls under the title of "Palestinians" to any reasonable person. Are you trying to stir up trouble or is it an honest mistake?

I say don't give either side any money. Let them take care of themselves.
I am in agreement with this. We simply do not have the money to be giving "Most favored nation" hand outs to anybody.
