This article is taking about the Palestinian people who, with the US support, Israel keeps in poverty go to fas.org and look up the two states
$185,185 per year for Palestine
$1,800,000 per year + all the newest military armament (new deal 2016) which amounts to hundreds of billions of dollars

I am no anti-Israel individual I am only giving the facts that the US government has chosen a side and it's Israel and, don't forget it's OUR TAX MONEY that they send...

The Israeli regime treats the Palestinians horribly. I have NO respect for Bibi's or the IDF's thuggish behavior whatsoever!

Jumping in before thinking is an unfortunate habit of too many. No slam intended to anyone personally, just that I've been jumped on too many times when using irony or subtlety.
