The Arab Palestinian is always using the excuse that (say you say) : "nothing goes to economic development. Israel does not allow that."
That excuse only passes the smell test in Area "C" where Israel has full jurisdiction by agreement with the Palestinians.
Is it possible for you to give an example of one of there restrictions on infrastructure development in either Areas "A" or "B". (I'm not sure that you can!)
P F Tinmore, et al,
I am talking about "Donor Dollars" and "not" --- part of the Oslo Accords, to pay for the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) recruitment and training programs for police forces with paramilitary capabilities (AKA: European style Gendarmes). The Security Assistance Program is an entirely separate funding stream.
For someone who pretends to be knowledgeable, you surely ask some stupid questions.Why is it then that the US is always giving donor dollars to the Ramallah Government (such that it is)?

Why is it that Arab Palestinians cannot raise the same level of funding from the entire rest of the world?
Because it doesn't go to help the Palestinians.

No single government contributes more (as a donor nation) to the Arab Palestinians than the US; usually by a factor of three:.
Additionally, there is another set of funding streams for the Arab Palestinians. List of additional donors financing participation of indigenous participants to the Working Group on Indigenous Populations and Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues... This does not include the Grant awards:
• Grant cycles for 2016-2017
If you examine the entire list of list of Government and EU Pledges to the UNRWA, you will find that the entire Arab League donated about one-third of the amount the US donated (based on 2015 numbers).
NOW, there is a reason that the entire resources of the Arab League does not match The Great Satan; not that I know why it is. But maybe the powerful angelic creature of the west is not so evil after all.

OK, but still nothing goes to economic development. Israel does not allow that.
So, What Arab countries are Palestinians attacking?calls on Arab states to refrain from giving training, sanctuary or financial or military aid to groups that mount attacks against other Arab countries.
More irrelevance from Rocco.

Community-led Development and Infrastructure
Our current programming continues to build better lives for the Palestinian people. In the West Bank, we are implementing the Palestine Local Government and Infrastructure (LGI) program, a $100-million USAID-funded project. LGI is responding to community infrastructure needs in Palestine.

Palestinian Community Infrastructure Development Program (PCID)
From 2013 to 2018, ANERA is implementing the USAID-funded Palestinian Community Infrastructure Development Program (PCID) to increase Palestinians’ access to water and sanitation.
- Enable approximately 60 Palestinian communities to have increased access to new and/or improved potable water supplies
- Enable more than 20 Palestinian communities to have access to improved sanitation systems
- With Palestinian Authority ministries and local community leaders, implement 50+ infrastructure projects in health, education, youth, and other sectors

Where is the economic development?
That's a good question to ask of your heroes in the PA and Hamas. The Islamic terrorist kingpins running those Islamic terrorist franchises are developing their personal fortunes through greed, theft and exploiting the UNRWA welfare fraud.
Don't you feel a little silly asking about progress toward economic development when Islamic terrorists are in powers of position such as we see in the Cults of the PA and Hamas?
