Serpent’s tooth

I love this picture captioned

A Palestinian girl holds a sign in Arabic reading ‘We will starve to death but not give up our principles’ during a protest against aid cuts to the Hamas-led Palestinian government, in Gaza Monday April 10, 2006. European Union foreign ministers were set to endorse Monday a freeze on direct EU aid to the Hamas-led Palestinian government while maintaining funding for humanitarian projects.

Even when the Palestinians have been funded fully and directly (as opposed to partially and indirectly) they’d complain that the United States didn’t pay enough attention to their plight or favored Israel. And when the Palestinians were fully funded, who was providing most of those funds?

The United States.

Not only was the aid unappreciated then the still portrayed and viewed America as their enemy, the Palestinian managed to keep their principles and still sought to destroy Israel using those very funds!
