International Aid Package for Palestinian Territories Rises to $7.6 Billion

That kinda scratch will buy a lot of Qassams.  Depressed yet?  Your depression, let me maximize it,

The pledges, made over three years, topped the Palestinian Authority's own appeal for $5.6 billion and were seen by many as an endorsement of the authority and its push for an independent state. The funds are for budgetary support, development projects and humanitarian assistance by aid agencies.

So not only are they getting the 7.6 billion package, but they only asked for 5.6?  What the hell happened to punishing the Palestinians for electing the super aggro jihadis over the slightly less aggro jihadis?  And now we're upping funding to the PA?

I'm glad they didn't include an actual number on how much the US put up for this, its bad enough knowing we put one of the largest sums up for this.
