An Arab Scandal
(Al-Ahram-Egypt) The total funds the Arab League has been able to collect for the Palestinian people do not surpass the paltry sum of $70 million, $50 million of which was from Qatar alone. Is this all that the entire Arab world can offer the Palestinians at this moment of crisis? An additional scandal is that the Arab League is incapable of delivering this meager sum to the Palestinians. At the Arab Summit financial allotments that each Arab state was supposed to pay to the Palestinian people were determined. These allotments were intended to be obligatory.
