Both Europe and the U.S. gave the Pals millions so we are to blame as well.
But............we don't negotiate with terrorists

I think the issue is the war can’t keep going much longer. Things are deteriorating and the U.S. is now fighting the Houthis along with the British.
Why not?
And if Blinken believes the Pals deserve a state of their own...........where will he locate it and who will offer up the land for it?
Well, if we are talking about the Royal Navy and Houthis, the Blue Funnel line is game enough, but we only have about 6 ships and one of those is the Isle of Wight ferry.
Maybe we could get the Russians to do the fighting for us. Houthis will be easier than the Ukrainians and Putin could do with a win

The US and Europe didn't give money to Hamas. I’m sure some got funneled from the West Bank. Possibly. But from what I've read most of the funding of Hamas comes from Palestinians living abroad, plus some donors living other Gulf states and of course: Iran.

And these people are sending money to Hamas? How are they siphoning it away from humanitarian aid funding the UN and the PA and how is it getting there?

How are they siphoning it away from humanitarian aid funding the UN and the PA and how is it getting there? I said Pals, read above. I never said Hamas. But I consider Fatah absolute shit as well. Maybe not as evil, but certainly not good.

JNS? I mean, I don't cite Electronic Intifada. I'd rather have the original Wall Street Journal report. That said, it looks like Hamas was coming to them. You're arguing the opposite.

Well, point out the bit about the money coming in from the West Bank in this think-tank opinion piece. Because the criticism of UNRWA here is about where the money goes in Gaza.
