Report: Despite Funding Fears, Abbas Gets $50 Million Luxury Jet
The Palestinian Authority has purchased a $50 million private jet for the use of its President Mahmoud Abbas at the same time its finances face a massive cut through the withdrawal of U.S. funding.
By Simon Kent, Breitbart, January 24, 2017:
Hadashot news reported the purchase on Wednesday, but did not provide sourcing for the claim. It said the plane will be delivered to Jordan in coming weeks and will be stationed there for personal use by the 83-year-old leader. Funding is alleged to have come via the PA budget ($20 million) and from the Palestinian National Fund ($30 million).
The news comes just weeks after U.S. President Donald Trump warned Abbas he was willing to cut aid to the Palestinian Authority, criticizing Palestinian leaders for showing “no appreciation or respect” to the U.S. and being “no longer willing to talk peace.”
As Breitbart Jerusalem reported, the context for Trump’s remarks was the administration’s announcement that it was suspending $255 million in aid to Pakistan because of that government’s alleged “double game” on terrorism.
It's not only Pakistan that we pay billions of dollars to for nothing, but also many other countries, and others. As an example, we pay the Palestinians HUNDRED OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS a year and get no appreciation or respect. They don’t even want to negotiate a long overdue…
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 2, 2018
…peace treaty with Israel. We have taken Jerusalem, the toughest part of the negotiation, off the table, but Israel, for that, would have had to pay more. But with the Palestinians no longer willing to talk peace, why should we make any of these massive future payments to them?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 2, 2018
UN Ambassador Nikki Haley added that the Trump administration would be withholding funds for the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), a special refugee program that only deals with Palestinians, until the Palestinian leaders came back to the negotiating table.
“[President Trump] doesn’t want to give any additional funding until the Palestinians agree to come back to the negotiation table, and what we saw with the resolution [on Jerusalem] was not helpful to the situation,” she told reporters.

Stop funding terrorism.
Abbas has a net worth of over $100 million. That’s beside the wealth of his sons, who’ve amassed their personal fortunes for such things as monopolies on imported cigarettes and public works projects.
Another PA official, former security minister Mohammed Dahlan, has claimed that $1.3b. vanished from the Palestinian Investment Fund since it was turned over to Abbas’ control in 2005.
This behavior matters quite a bit, especially when it’s happening at the highest levels of government. The world’s largest recipient of international aid, the PA has received about $8,462,161,328 between 2007 and 2014.

Gee, now that the fat fu*k pal “leader” won’t be able to rely on U.S. money to fuel his plane, maybe now he might have to go back to flying his magic carpet more often. He can’t be served falafel on the carpet but, at least it’s a lot cheaper. And isn’t that what he’s about after all, saving money for his people. And he can use some of the money he saved on a gym membership, a fig enema and a few more vegetables in his diet.

The problem with magic carpets is Abbas and Arafat tend to get rug burns when they bring their bacha bazi boys with them.

They are muslims , best at taqiya to fool the dumb Left/Liberal kuffars. I heard a report was hidden by Obama and his gang that states there are less than 20,000 “refugees” in “Palestine” not 3.5 Million that is falsely used to siphon off billions from dumb ignorant donors across the world !
Left/Liberals are bowing down so much to immigrants they are well on their way to creating more humgoats http://bit.ly/2iMxEZt

Abbas probably got the extra $50 Million from IRAN, who got $150 Billion from Obama’s Iran Deal, in the first place!

OT:
CNBC keeps airing a short PRO-PALESTINIAN commercial over and over, since Trump recognized Jerusalem.
In the commercial, you see Palestinians demonstrating, and the reporter says emphatically: “They don’t accept the Israeli claim to Jerusalem!”.
I know a 5 second commercial is nothing, but I’ve been seeing it now for the last 2 months; and the imbeciles keep airing it during commercial breaks.
I prefer to watch CNBC for financial news instead of this pro-terrorist crap.

“OK, he has his getaway plane, gassed up and ready at the airport.”
Remember the show AIRWOLF from the 1980s about an Advanced Helicopter?
Wish AIRWOLF could shoot Abbas down – he’s a pre-meditating murderer.

Trump to Palis: No work, No Welfare

President Trump told Prime Minister Netanyahu Thursday that US aid to the Palestinians won’t continue until they’re willing to “sit down and negotiate peace.” In a bilateral meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Mr. Trump said that the Palestinians “disrespected” the US when they refused to see Vice President Mike Pence during his Middle East trip. Trump said his administration already has a proposal for peace that will benefit the Palestinians and be good for Israel as well. “We took Jerusalem off the table, so we don’t have to talk about it anymore,” he said in reference to his recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Many Arabs live in nice places. In Gaza they get almost daily suplies from Israel by trucks. The naval blockade is to stop weapons.

In the mid-1990s, Arafat controlled a financial empire worth at least $3 billion. By the time of his death, he was down to his last $1 billion, according to Israeli intelligence estimates. His financial advisor Rashid accumulated a fortune of 500 million dollars. Abbas himself is a poor, honest peasant who has only swindled a little over 100 million dollars. By the way, the money is mostly YOURS.

“why should we make any of these massive future payments to them?” Why did we EVER make ANY payments to them? What, F-ing O-hole put us in debt to the tune of ~ $20 trillion when it was 5 to 7 trillion when he took office? Where the F did all that money go, where is it going and why? DJT needs to cut all that foriegn aid S off!
This plane can only serve one purpose, as a F-ing coffin for this POS. Let’s shoot it down in a false flag operation when Ab-hole is flying in it along with his closest accomplices.

Isn’t it illegal for the US to be paying “tribute” to another country?
Isn’t paying tribute why the US fought the Barbary Wars? See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbary_Wars
“The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality, today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese.” – PLO leader Zuheir Mohsen, interview in the Dutch newspaper Trouw, March 1977.

99 Percent of “Palestine Refugees” Are Fake
— http://www.meforum.org/7149/99-of-palestine-refugees-are-fake?utm_source=Middle+East+Forum&utm_campaign=fd54339206-pipes_mef_2018_01_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_086cfd423c-fd54339206-33929733&goal=0_086cfd423c-fd54339206-33929733
Everything about the Palestinians is fake as it is a useful word to clothe a Communist movement to destroy capitalist Israel in the words of Arab nationalism and Islam. Even Yasser Arafat is not “Palestinian” because he was born in Cairo and is Egyptian. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasser_Arafat. A Palestinian State did not exist before the creation of Israel in 1948 as that area was part of the Ottoman Empire (now Turkey) then a British Protectorate after the First World War.
The “Palestinians” are Egyptians, Saudis, Jordanians, Senegalese, Sudanese and a number of other Muslim invasive colonists. — https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/269039/big-palestinian-lie-daniel-greenfield
The people who call themselves “Palestinians” are the descendants of foreign workers from the Middle East and North Africa who immigrated to the area around Jerusalem to take jobs provided by the Jews at the dawn of Zionism in the 1880s. Prior to Zionism, the area around Jerusalem was evenly populated with 25K each of Jews, Christians and Muslims.
Arabic 101: There is no “P” in the Arabic language. The closest approximation to the “P” sound in Arabic is the sound of the letter “B.” What group of people name themselves after a word from a foreign language? A people who do not exist and have no connection to the area that they are claiming. Even the star of the fake Palestinians is not Palestinian: Yasser Arafat was born in Egypt and is Egyptian. See:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasser_Arafat
The fake Palestinians are a leftover from the Cold War Communist agitation group thinly veiled in Arab nationalism and Islam. The Communist fake Palestinians desire to steal what the Israelis have produced via the Israeli capitalist economy. Both groups live side by side and yet: — one group is doing extremely well through hard work and brain power: Israelis, — the other group is doing extremely poorly because they don’t want to work but would rather look with Communist envy on everything that the Israelis have produced: fake-Palestinians. The fake-Palestinians need to be repatriated to their ancestral homelands throughout the Middle East and North Africa, e.g., Yasser Arafat’s children need to be deported back to Egypt.

I have the feeling that President Trump wants the “P”LO out of Israel for they obviously don’t want to make peace.
Perhaps Ali Baba (Abbas) knows this and bought an expensive plane to get the hell out of Dodge. It will be handy in “exile”. He can sell it to make sure his family won’t have to suffer.
I wonder where will he go to? Switzerland, France comes to mind.

Where all the money has gone for electricity, hospitals, and schools?
EU report reveals €1.95 billion, transferred by Belgium to West Bank, Gaza Strip over past several years, were wasted or lost. Corruption is suspected.
Yaser Arafat took 90% (ninety) of all the income to the PA, estimated about 10 Billion dollars. It’s all gone with him to his grave. Poor Palestinians.

Abbas’ multi-million-dollar, private jet purchased with Western taxpayers’ money. This man, a putz, is a devout terrorist who has conned the dullards of the EU, UN and every other loathsome leftist loathing Jews/Israel. Stop the payments immediately to Abbas’ fetid PA whose sole intent is the eradication of Israel and all Jews. The EU and UN may detest our President, but he is the only Western leader on this planet with chutzpah and foresight.

It’s a cliche, but a picture is worth a thousand words. Obama’s true-believers, disciples, would scream that the photo is photo-shopped; progressives are self-deceiving, self-defeating imbeciles. The base tenet of Liberalism is akin to Islam, utter detestation of anything or anyone diverse of this cult’s intolerance and barbarity, especially Jews. Indictment for treason would be justice, Obama, and Farakkhan; betrayal, however, is a perceived by leftists as a courageous act. Progressivism is a doorway to moral and mental-decay.

That is $50 million that can’t be spent on terrorism. Why, though, would he buy such an expensive jet. Is he planning on more serious negotiations with someone? Either Russia/Iran or the U.S., or maybe all three? It is no doubt a very strange move when his people could be starving and living on the streets in the near future. Seems like a big waste of money.
