Whatever you say pal. At least I can back it up. By the way, why does Bush complains so strongly about Saddam paying off the PALs for suicide bombers but when the Saudi A-rab scum-bags do the same thing and your cherished Bush remains silent?

SAUDI ARABIA - RIYADH BANKROLLS PALESTINIAN CASUALTIES (APR 10/UPI)

UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL -- Saudi Arabia has paid out at least $33 million to the families of Palestinians injured or killed since the beginning of the Intifada and has reserved another $50 million for future payments, UPI reports.

U.S. President George Bush has strongly criticized similar payments from Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein to the families of Palestinian suicide bombers.

The Saudi Committee for Support of the Al-Aqsa Intifada, managed by Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdul Aziz, paid $5,333 to the family of each dead Palestinian and $4,000 to those receiving medical care in Saudi hospitals. Iraq pays $10,000 to those killed and $25,000 to the families of suicide bombers.

Riyadh makes no distinction between those killed by Israeli military action and those who kill themselves in suicide bombings.
