Western Diplomat Reveals Gaza Facing 'Donor Fatigue'

[docmauser1]

The United Nations' Palestinian Arab "refugee" agency, the UNRWA, has described the financial needs as "unprecedented" ahead of the Cairo meeting, which follows Hamas's third war on Israeli civilians in six years.
But it is unclear how generous the world is willing to be given the intractability of the conflict and other priorities in the region, such as the fight against jihadists in Syria and Iraq.
The Palestinian Authority (PA) unity government has called for more than $4 billion in aid, and UNRWA for $1.6 billion.
And while an international conference in March saw $200 million donated to the terror-run territory - and donations from the US and France reached a combined $61.8 million - the money is apparently still not enough for Hamas, nor for UNRWA, leaving many asking why.
To that end, a Western diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity, warned there was "considerable donor fatigue."
"We have seen infrastructure projects that we have contributed to which have been destroyed," the diplomat said, adding that skepticism had existed even before the recent conflict.
Ample evidence has proven that Hamas uses UN and other aid money, as well as materials, to build terror tunnels into Israeli territory with the aim of attacking Israeli citizens - instead of providing buildings to its own citizens.
To illustrate this, the IDF revealed during the course of Operation Protective Edge that 4,680 trucks carrying 181 thousand tons of gravel, iron, cement, wood and other supplies passed through the Kerem Shalom crossing into Gaza since January 2014 - much of it directly from Israel to fund civilian projects.
Instead, however, a network of over 30 tunnels was found during the ground offensive, with each tunnel costing roughly $3 million to build. For every Hamas terror tunnel, the IDF stated, there was enough building materials to build 86 homes; seven mosques; six schools; or nineteen medical clinics. ...

Why do you always post from Israeli and Zionist propaganda sites? Can you ever post from a neutral site? What would you say if I constantly posted from Palestine Remembered?

Benny Morris of blessed fame gives the answer "The Palestinian Authority (PA) has emerged as a virtual kingdom of mendacity, where every official, from President Arafat (now Abu Mazen) down, spends his days lying to a succession of western journalists. ...". Doooh.

Just making stupid statements that no one believes is even worse than linking to Zionist propaganda sites. You undermine yourself.

You forgot to mention that the PA is a foreign created entity. They act like the oligarchs that they were intended to be.

Which is why you support Hamas, those who made pact with the PA.

People voted for Hamas because they are not foreign backed oligarchs who will sell the Palestinians down the river for their own gain.

True.

Hamas simply embeds their war-assets within civilian population centers, hoping for massive Palestinian civilian casualties, as a public-relations tactic.

Strange and tragic... how the Gazan-Palestinians voted for these scum, then back them even while Hamas tactics are killing them.

Another symptom of Palestinian Mentality...
