Sugar Coat That Murder Frenzy

US official: Gaza reconstruction aid to top $900M

"JERUSALEM (AP) -- United States aid for the Gaza Strip's reconstruction will likely top $900 million, an official said, as U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton prepared to make her first Mideast trip as America's top diplomat."

The pattern repeats. First the US lavishes billions in military aid to Israel who blows the shit out of Gaza, and now we offer almost a billion to Gaza to reconstruct what was blown up. Notice Hillary ain't going nowhere near Gaza's devastation.

Why do this? Well the first thing is the obvious propaganda value as the Obama's administration continues to throw dollars at anything and everything. Also that aid money won't go through Hamas, the democratically elected government of Gaza, who's fallen out of zionist favor. The Gazans are in a desperate situation after a stifling embargo and the utter catastrophe from murderous bombing, so they can't afford to reject all the strings attached to the funds. I would assume the usual culprits will get in on the action, namely Halliburton.

Mostly though it's probably just another scam to suck funds from taxpayers and the poor palestinians won't see squat, aside from a few coats of paint a la Iraq.

A familiar strategy of the serial abuser is to ply the victim with flowers, wine and dine and then, beat the shit out of her.

The US is no exception...always has been a cowardly, lying bully. When it takes on Iran and Russia enters the frey (as it will) watch the coward turn tail and run.

This sort of lipstick won't ever make this pig any prettier, gc, and the entire world knows it. Either the propaganda designers know it and don't give a rat's ass anymore or they're hopelessly behind the curve.

Yep. Chances are even the Zionists will skim as much as they can from the package. It'll be easy, since they hold so many offices in the US corporate empire.
