UN: 60% of all Humanitarian aid Goes to Islamic World....

Paying the jiyza....

About 60 per cent of all the humanitarian aid distributed by the UN goes to crisis-hit regions in the Islamic world, according to John Holmes, the UN Under-Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator.

Three of the four largest annual appeals issued by the UN seeking aid were concerning Islamic countries- Darfur (Sudan), Palestine and Somalia. The fourth was Congo, which is a non-Muslim African country, said Holmes addressing a press conference yesterday.

He said international response to UN appeals to assist the Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank was low due to resistance from the US and the European Union.

"We have issued appeals for $400m to support the Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank but less than 60 per cent of the targeted amount was raised. This is disappointing," said Holmes. He added this was the third largest annual appeal of the UN seeking aid.

I said the same thing about Palestine at that party the other night, Elric, and you know how that worked out for me. Let's see - shortly before I was called a donkey with blinders on - I got this response to my statement about Palestine, and I quote, "I can see you don't let facts bother to get in the way."

And, with oil now at what - $112 a barrel - let the Arabs kick in and support their own - you know, the ones that worship the same moon, or whatever...

WZ,

It was a quote from the UN. But then we know where their loyalties lie.

BT,

LOL. Libs wouldnt know a fact if it bit them in the ass. Libs are all about "feelings". Next time, ask them why they support Islam more than Western culture. And if they are a female, ask them how they will feel having to wear the hijab one day if they get their way and destroy Western culture.
