Obama gave Palestinians $221 million in last hours of presidency
January 24, 2017 | BPR Wire | Print Article   



Former President Barack Obama authorized a $221 million payment to the Palestinian Authority in the very last hours of his presidency, despite opposition from within the Republican-controlled Congress.

Obama Shhh

Obama’s White House and Department of State notified Congress on the early hours of inauguration day, the Associated Press learned. The funds were reportedly appropriated as part of the larger foreign affairs budget, but were held up by Republicans.

As this money was within the monies appropriated by Congress last year, Obama was merely executing the law in passing this along to the Palestinians.

The real culprit in this is who made this appropriation.

No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

Imam Obama said in the past if you don't like a law, you don't have to enforce it.  By enforcing it, he showed his anti-Semitism.
