(Asia Times-Hong Kong) Spengler - The PA can't pay salaries because international donors, including the Gulf states, haven't sent promised aid. Roughly one in four Palestinian men between the ages of 20 and 40 is paid to carry a gun. A putative nation whose economy is based on the imminent prospect of violence does not have first claim on scarce international resources. Meanwhile, the living standard of Arabs in the so-called Occupied West Bank is double that of pre-crisis Egypt; compared with Egypt or Syria, it is an oasis of peace and plenty. After years of intoning that the Palestine issue was the crux of the world's security problems, the world has left the keys in the wreck and walked away. 2012-10-02 00:00:00Full Article
