AID TO THE ENEMY

Show Me the Money (BackSpin)
The UNRWA announced the amount of money pledged by donor governments towards its 2008 budget, and the lack of Arab largesse is appalling.

While the US chipped in for $90 million, the combined contributions from the governments of Turkey, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Egypt and the UAE totalled $3,085,000 -- which is about 12 percent of the average yearly salary of the contract Alex Rodriguez recently voided.

THIS IS ESPECIALLY TROUBLING CONSIDERING HOW HOSTILE TO ISRAEL AND THE U.S. AND HOW PRO-ARAB UNRWA IS.
