Ambulances for Terrorists?
(Washington Times) Michelle Malkin - The UN and Red Cross have been providing cover for terrorists - literally. And American taxpayers are footing some of the bill. Last week, an Israeli television station aired footage of armed Arab terrorists in southern Gaza using an ambulance owned and operated by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) (see video). Since 1950, the U.S. has provided UNRWA with $2.5 billion in taxpayer subsidies - about one-third of the relief agency's total budget. Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), chairman of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare, recently documented how "buildings and warehouses under UNRWA supervision are allegedly being used as storage areas for Palestinian ammunition and counterfeit currency factories." Not one more American dime should go to fund the bloody self-righteousness of the world's most generous terrorist relief organization.
