I know...but I also know that that spending will continue indefinitely the way things are going.

I'm just saying that a serious look at the "right to return" conundrum might offer a way for the West to show their empathy toward the Palestinians in a way that hasn't been broached before.

This money could go directly to displaced families and their heirs. All the money we've poured in in the past has gone to Yasser and his cronies and not that much has trickled down.

I'm not saying it would work or even be possible, but with this president shoveling $100 Billion here and $100 Billion there with little to show for it, I think it might be a $10 Billion expenditure that could be worth looking at if it had even the slightest possibility of solving one of the ALL TIME cruxes of the the Palestinian problem.
