Funds are not earmarked for Hamas - they are going to the United Nations.

Nice spin on WND.

U.S. to Give $900 Million in Gaza Aid, Officials Say

Quote:
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration intends to provide some $900 million to help rebuild Gaza after the Israeli incursion that ended last month, administration officials said Monday.

In an early sign of how the administration plans to deal with Hamas, the militant Islamist group that controls Gaza, an official said that the aid would not go to Hamas but that it would be funneled through nongovernmental organizations.
The early sign is that obama intends to help keep Hamas in power. Is there any doubt this money will end up in their hands - probably to replenish their weapons.

Yes, $900M in aid to Gaza for rebuilding.

Not $900M to HAMAS.

You can't reason with obtuse people... They don't have a clue about anything. That's why they voted for a fraud, thug, liar.
