International Development Secretary Priti Patel ordered a freeze pending the outcome of an investigation. A third of this years aid to Pakistan is being withheld. The Department said that the PLOmakes social welfare provisions for prisoners families.
MP's demanded action after revelations that money to pay for civil servants was being transferred to the PLO. One hamas master bomber got £100,000from the PLO. Other "salaries" are said to have gone to families od suicide bombers.

The truth is coming out and the arab muslims are losing their support every day, very soon they will be starved into holding peace talks and negotiations and will find themselves fighting for their very existence
 
I doubt it. The wine of her fornication is oil.

Of which the "Palestinians" have none and the West is becoming increasingly free of Mideast (read: OPEC) oil and influence.

OTOH, hi-tech multinationals are becoming increasingly dependent on Israeli ingenuity.

Execs from Facebook, Google, and Microsoft explain why they use Israel for their R&D

Google developer partner advocate Don Dodge said:
Google now employs more than 600 engineers in the country, and they work on several of Google's core products, including Search, Maps, and Live Results. About half of Google's engineers in Israel are graduates of Tel Aviv University, Dodge said. "There's an amazing source of talent here," he said.

Adi Soffer Teeni, the CEO of Facebook Israel said:
When the moderator asked what made Israel such a unique place to do R&D, Teeni responded: "There's amazing talent here. Multinationals come here with great R&D centres and recruit people with a very innovative way of thinking."

Roy Ramon, the managing director of the Intel Ingenuity Partner Program said:
"The reason I started the startup programme is because when you [a corporate] meet with a company in Israel, they come in and tell engineers that they're doing it all wrong," he said. "They push everything off the table. These engineers have been doing this for years. They're world experts. And yet that startup is bold enough to come to a mammoth like Intel and say you're doing it all wrong. This is one culture that you can't get anywhere in the world."

Zack Weisfeld, the general manager of Microsoft Global Accelerators said:
"Most of the founders we see [in Israel] come deeply from the tech world and don’t come from the business world trying to solve a problem and then finding a technical cofounder," he said. "They really have a lot of IP (intellectual property) in the space and now they're putting it to play in all categories: agriculture, robots, health."

Weisfeld added: "There is something about the culture, and something about the market understanding and business understanding that might be a little more rough [among Israeli startups] at the beginning, but at the end of the day, and if you get them to the right place, they're unstoppable."

here you go in no particular order

Britain suspends millions in AID payments to Palestine amid claims it is going to terrorists

UK freezes $30m in Palestinian aid over salaries for terrorists

UK freezes aid to PA over terror funding | The Jewish Chronicle

Foreign aid budget will be slashed to fund the war on terror | Daily Mail Online
 
From the link given

The Mail on Sunday's campaign to tackle the UK's bloated foreign aid budget scored a massive victory last night – when the Government decided that tens of millions of pounds can be diverted to fund the war on terror.

In a radical break with the David Cameron era, new International Development Secretary Priti Patel is to cut spending on traditional aid projects and use the money to help promote 'national security and the national interest'.

It could lead to Defence Secretary Michael Fallon handing to Ms Patel his responsibility for funding British troops combating Islamic insurgencies in global hotspots – freeing up more of his resources for frontline troops.

The move is a major U-turn and comes after The Mail on Sunday and its readers protested against wasteful and corrupt aid projects.

It will put pressure on the Palis to form a universal representation and govt. Actually a good move. You can't keep wasting generations of Pali lives and watching the world go by.

Two things:
1) the UK's foreign aid budget can't slash its aid to Israel because - drum roll, please - that budget already includes none.
2) US aid to Israel is clearly part of our war on terror.

The welfare fraud that is the Pal'istanians has made Islamic terrorists very wealthy.

One example:

https://www.google.com/amp/s/europe...m-palace-332061/amp?client=ms-android-verizon


Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas is constructing a $13 million palace in the West Bank, despite the country being crippled by financial woes.

The project, titled the Presidential Guest Palace in Surda, Ramallah, is listed as an ongoing project on the official website of the Palestinian Economic Council for Development & Reconstruction (PECDAR). It is due to take two years to complete, though the project's start date is not clear from the website.

The complex will include a 4,700-square-metre guest palace and two helipads, as well as a 4,000-square-metre administrative building. It will be constructed over a total land area of 27,000 square metres. PECDAR said on the website that the project will be financed by the Palestinian Ministry of Finance.

Right. So what I don't understand is why they Palis & tgheir supporters bitch about Israel with peace offerings, security fence & land concessions so they can remain & yet not a single complaint from the Pali's or their supporters about those Arab countries that just massacred them & expelled them leaving them as refugees. Such are the people Israel now has to deal with.

Truly I think Israel needs to abandon this entire Zionist agenda & start earning respect from the Palestinians & their supporters by just treating them like the surrounding Arab countries did & still do. LET THERE BE PEACE ALREADY!
 
Phoenall, et al,

I think you have a very good point here, if I understand where you are going with this.

There are a number of Western Nations that suspected (for quite some time) fund diversions in this way. As I said in Posting #7 (Abbas in Hospital), it is lucrative. I really don't blame the UK.

I think that the various hostile elements, to include HAMAS and the PLO, has had more than ample time to turn-around their position on violence. And to adopt new strategies to become a useful and productive member of the Regional Middle East community; instead of the poster child for Radicalized Islam.

(COMMENT)

Having said that, I don't think that the UK and the US and the other major Donor Countries have been all that deaf, dumb and blind. I believe that it has been known all the time, but for diplomatic reasons, no one wanted to bring it forth from the shadows and into the public light.

We have seen in this Discussion Group, where the Hostile Arab Palestinians (like HAMAS) believe that they are exempt from domestic laws against bombings and other terrorist activities (A/RES/49/60); and including the:

International Convention for the Suppression of Terrorist Bombings

Signed: 15 December 1997, New York
Entered into force: 23 May 2001
Status: 164 Parties
Full text: Download PDF
  • Creates a regime of universal jurisdiction over the unlawful and intentional use of explosives and other lethal devices in, into, or against various defined public places with intent to kill or cause serious bodily injury, or with intent to cause extensive destruction of the public place.

(A/RES/51/210) The General Assembly encourages member nations to "take steps to prevent and counteract, through appropriate domestic measures, the financing of terrorists and terrorist organizations, whether such financing is direct or indirect through organizations which also have or claim to have charitable, social or cultural goals or which are also engaged in unlawful activities such as illicit arms trafficking, drug dealing and racketeering, including the exploitation of persons for purposes of funding terrorist activities, and in particular to consider, where appropriate, adopting regulatory measures to prevent and counteract movements of funds suspected to be intended for terrorist purposes without impeding in any way the freedom of legitimate capital movements and to intensify the exchange of information concerning international movements of such funds."


Most Respectfully,
R
