PLA and Hamas
ok, I don't know if anyone has been following this, but the US and the EU dropped all of their funding to the PLA about 10 days ago. Many countries have been pledging to increase their donations to the PLA to offset this. Many Arab nations, such as Qatar, have already pledged a dollar amount, and Russia has pledged to give emergency aid but have not stipulated how much. The US and EU can only make this situation more volatile by withdrawing their money. Hamas won the western mandated democratic elections in the PLA and the west didn't like this. Yes, Hamas is a terrorist organization, but taking money from the PLA does nothing to stop the funding to Hamas, it only hurts the peace process. Terrorism as we know it today started in Israel and Palestine and our actions only further the reasons for attack. This was unfair of the US and they need to see their mistakes. Global politics is run by extremist positions, and if we can't negotiate with extremists then we will never have world peace. The US needs to understand that their money and influence doesn't run everything. We can be sure to see more human rights violations in Palestine because of the west's actions.
