The following article by Daniel Pipes gives statistical backing to the claims frequently made and daily supported by facts on the ground: that Palestinian leadership is violent and corrupt, and money given to it goes not for the public good, but for murder and carnage against both Israelis and Arabs.

How can the delusion persist that giving Mahmud Abbas billions of dollars will bring peace? He is a career terrorist, head of a network of violent and gangster-like factions. When has feeding money to criminals, terrorists and racists ever made them into humane, tolerant peaceful people? It never has and never will, and to persist in such a belief is a sign of serious imbalance.

Lavishing funds on Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian Authority to achieve peace has been a mainstay of Western, including Israeli, policy since Hamas seized Gaza in June. But this open spigot has counterproductive results and urgently must be stopped.

Some background: Paul Morro of the Congressional Research Service reports that, in 2006, the European Union and its member states gave US$815 million to the Palestinian Authority, while the United States sent it $468 million. When other donors are included, the total receipts come to about …

While the “Wheels of Justice” PA Arab propaganda team is in the southwest, spreading poison, here is what their brothers are doing in Israel…this is what they are gathering money for, this and worse.

At 8:30 PM on Saturday night, April 21st. 2007, less than an hour after the Bibiyen family finished the Sabbath with the traditional blessing over the spices, wine and a candle– all the symbols of the hope to begin a new week of living — a missile fired from the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) camp in Jabalya in the Gaza strip scored a direct hit on the Bibiyen home.

The extended Bibiyen family consisting of two grandparents, Dvora 52 , and Yigal, 64, had welcomed the families of their four sons and one daughter to spend the Sabbath with them. Everything had ended on such a pleasant note.

This reporter spoke with the Bibiyen family on Sunday morning while they were cleaning through the rubble.

All of them were stunned and still trying to comprehend the miracle that occurred the previous night.

One of the sons, Yahav 31, still a bit shaken, said …

Rachel Fredman Editorial in the UNM Lobo

On March 26, the Daily Lobo published an article by Bryan Gibel discussing the campus visit of Hisham Jabi, a contractor for the U.S. Agency for International Development. Presenting a hackneyed, utopian view of the impasse between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA), Gibel fails to discuss any of the political complexities of the situation. Jabi’s comments are particularly absurd, claiming the conflict stems from a lack of “mutual respect and direct human interaction” between Israelis and Palestinians. These rosy-tinged scenarios prove ludicrous when analyzing the regional political situation.

Jabi claims that traveling the distance from Albuquerque to Santa Fe, a one-hour trek, takes 3 1/2 to eight hours in the West Bank or the Gaza Strip, depending on how much inspection the government imposes. First, what government is Jabi referring to? Since he mentioned Gaza, he must be referring to the PA. Since August 2005, when Israel unilaterally withdrew from this piece of land, Gaza has been under the sole jurisdiction of the PA. Rather than use this land to build infrastructure and create jobs, the PA has done nothing to develop a viable state since Israel’s …
