“State Department freezes Obama’s $221m gift to Palestinians,” World Israel News, January 25, 2017:
The Trump administration has frozen Obama’s parting gift to the the Palestinians.
Former US President Barack Obama, in his waning hours, quietly released $221 million to the Palestinian Authority (PA), which Congress had been blocking.
The Trump administration announced it is freezing the move.
The State Department is reviewing the last-minute decision by former Secretary of State John Kerry to send $221 million dollars to the Palestinians.
Kerry formally notified Congress that State would release the money Friday morning, just hours before President Donald Trump took the oath of office….
When asked about the transfer by a reporter during Tuesday’s press briefing, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said that “[Trump] is very concerned about how taxpayer money is spent, whether it’s sent overseas and what we get for it in terms of the relationship or our support for a democracy or aid to another country for their defenses. But he’s going to be examining all aspects of the budget… He’s going to make sure that every deal, every dollar that is spent by the government is done in a way that respects the American taxpayer.”

cs says
Obomo, could give from his own purse, otherwise it is just stealing.
Trump scoring one more point. With him it is winning all the time.

If China planted themselves in your home state controlled how you lived worked educated everything .

Would you not hope that your fellow humanity would fight with u against oppresion & the wealthier countries finance your just struggles to win your state back? You are not better than Palestinian s think before you speak God help you

Aine, you have your head up Obama’s ass so far that when he shits you use it to brush your teeth!

True. Palestinian s occupying Israel is beyond the pale. #MAGA
SHowell says
Um, are you saying the Palestinians are more important than Americans? I think we are fighting the fight at HOME to prevent illegal occupation of AMERICAN soil. If you want to send money to the Palestinians, and raise funding for their struggles first, pull out your pocketbook and donate. Then assemble like-minded folks and put together a private organization to fund Palestinians. Because you want to doesn’t mean every American does, many of us want things fixed at home 1st, where our people are suffering- or are you out of touch with that, say, the suffering folks in Chicago? Our Military supplementing pay with foodstamps, our elderly living in abject poverty? That is where I want my tax money spent and I don’t believe I am alone in that thinking. Find somewhere else to Troll.

The “Palestinians” keep propagating a cycle of death! Israel is NOT occupying “Palestine”, the Jews bought much of the land they now live in! “Palestinians” are largely Muslim Arabs that moved there when the Jews built up a successful state! The only reason there are “Palestinians” is because when Israel was attacked by its neighbors, its neighbors would not take back the Muslim refugees!
What Muslims WERE in the area of Israel at the time that the British were parceling land, refused to accept any agreements that had them sharing land with Israel (the Jews)! Before that There was no “Jordan”, there was no “Syria”…
Brent says
If u believe money should b sent overseas….send ur money! I want my tax paid money used here in th UNITED STATES first. We have more than enough going wrong that that money can buy used for to help. Enough is enough. Let these other countries fend for themselves because they can care less if we (AMERICANS) are in trouble,starvin,homeless or wutever. Take care of ur own house before u try an take care of someone elses

You see, this is the problem with you leftists & Muslims……Always re-writing History with constant lies, hoping that when the same lies are repeated many a time enough, people will start believing it. Well, sorry, again, it is only Muslims and leftists that believe in their own fabled tales. The rest of us knows these much….(1) There is no such thing as “Palestinians or Palestine” They are Arab Jordanians and they should go back to Jordan, their home country. (2) Israel, is the natural home-land of the Blessed Jewish people and Jerusalem is it’s eternal capital of the Jewish people’s home land of Israel. (3) The name, west bank, is a fabrication. The real and natural for that piece of territory is Judea & Samaria. It is all recorded in the bible. (4)There was never a winged-horse that flew the Pedophile Mohammed to Jerusalem and then into heaven.
These were the blabbing of a lunatic who suffers from frequent Epileptic attacks, and pretends to have been in a spiritual trance, meeting Allah, merely to cover up the embarrassment of his epileptic disgrace and humiliation. That was 1400 hundred yrs ago, people were still naive and uncivilized. But to have this lunacy & nonsense of Islamic beliefs and supremacy still being believed by some civilized Muslims in the 21st century, is worst than epilepsy……..It is an afflictions and a contagious murderous plague, which must be eradicated and wiped out from the surface of the earth. The entire world despises both Muslim and Islam. Go figure why! Finally, from the RIVER TO THE SEA IS ISRAEL, HOMELAND OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE. President Trump is in now, lets see who blinks first. ISRAEL always WINS, this time around, I hope that Israel wipes out all the JORDANIAN TERRORISTS, PRETENDING TO BE PALESTINIANS.

1st, China would not dare to do anything like that, because the USA is a strong sovereign nation, unlike the wandering Arabs that were in the area who had built nothing but mud huts before 1948. The word “Palestine” or “Palestinian” is just a fantasy. 2nd, there is no “fellow humanity” that wants to be your ally, since you have become the most disliked and disrespected people to ever walk this Earth. No – one LIKES you. We have seen your way of life, you are vile and despicable, and we want nothing but silence from you. 3rd, nearly every nation is indeed BETTER than you, with the possible exception of …… no-one, really. Everyone is better than you.
Your beliefs, your culture, your habits…even your APPEARANCE offends the rest of humanity. So sorry (not sorry) but you are on your own. We side with Israel totally and forever. Take your beheadings, your “rape games”, your stoning of innocent women, your female genital mutilations, your hatred of all people who are non-Muslim, and stick it up your ass.
But, to be fair, I will lift an excerpt from a more noble historian than I:
There has never been a civilisation or a nation referred to as “Palestine” and the very notion of a “Palestinian Arab nation” having ancient attachments to the Holy Land going back to time immemorial is one of the biggest hoaxes ever perpetrated upon the world! There is not, nor has there ever been, a distinct “Palestinian” culture or language. Further, there has never been a Palestinian state governed BY Arab Palestinians in history, nor was there ever a serious Arab-Palestinian national movement until 1964… three years BEFORE the Arabs of “Palestine” lost the “West Bank” and Gaza as a result of losing the 1967 Six-Day War (which the Arabs started).
Before the 1967 war, the Palestine Liberation Organisation’s (PLO) primary goal was to destroy Israel. Post-1967, their goal became two-tracked: Either (1) destroy Israel outright (the same pre-1967 goal) or (2) the creation of an Arab-Palestinian state to be used as a launching pad from which to destroy Israel. Different strategies – same ultimate goal… a state not along side Israel, but IN PLACE OF Israel. It’s really that simple!
Israel became a nation in 1312B.C.E., two thousand years before the rise of Islam! Seven hundred and twenty-six years later in 586 B.C. these first ancient Jews in the Land of Israel [Judea] were overrun and its First Jewish Temple (on Jerusalem’s Old City Temple Mount) was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar, king of ancient Babylon. Many of the Jews were killed or expelled; however many were allowed to remain. These Jews along with their progeny and other Jews who would resettle over the next 500 years, rebuilt the Nation of Israel and also a Second Temple upon the Temple Mount.
Thus the claim that Jews suddenly appeared fifty years ago right after the Holocaust and drove out the Arabs is preposterous! ”
Don’t like what I said? Then do some serious self-reflection and start examining WHY everyone dislikes you so very much, and leave ISLAM, which is the ROOT OF ALL YOUR MULTITUDE OF TROUBLES. Look in the MIRROR !
Jake says
You think israel actually “Occupies” Palestinians…the oppression of Palestinians in that region is done 100 percent by other Palestinians. If not for Israel and Israelis, many of those “occupied Palestinians” you speak of would be doomed. Get an education you numb skull.
Angel W. says
I very seriously doubt you even know the definition of the word Misogynist which by the way, you have misspelled. You are obviously just repeating what you’ve heard others say. The definition of that word is definitely not descriptive of President Trump who loves his wife and family and is very proud of all of them. Please make sure you know what you’re talking about before you spread the hatred of others. In fact, do some research and you might learn something for yourself.

Trump did not say that they would not get the money. He is protecting AMERICAN TAXPAYER money. He will examine the payout and decide if it will be in the People’s best interest.

Muslim is the lowest for of human life to exist. The American people need to be educated about the Muslim agenda. Please send the following letter to Washington or something equivalent to make the following point. Letter to Washington; https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact#page
A very good solution to the Muslim -Islam population taking over the United States Government through population and politics.
It has been brought to my attention that the Muslim Ideology is a theocracy. Some fuel for thought is we can define Islam as a theocracy. The United States government could change the status of Islam from religion to what it is a theocracy. Legally our nation can have every Mosques, school and compound torn down. Not having religious status would eliminate Islam’s religious exemption status. How to proceed : Our Constitution: the law of the land, article 6, No other government to operate within our nation aka sharia law, a Muslim only legal system that segregates itself from all other people with a complete chapter on non Muslims in an Islamic state/ Reliance of the Traveller: Islamic
Sacred Law..aka sharia law Chapter o11.0 titled Non Muslim Subjects of the Islamic State (AHL AL- DHIMMA) page 607 to 609./ then we have our immigration laws on the books to be enforced, we have the means to remove Islam without resorting to a Muslim List and seriously people we need to do just that. Also for every Mosque built it becomes an Islamic state operates sharia law and demands its followers to follow sharia. Now think of how many Mosques have been built since 9/11. Should any one of you decide to read the Quran and discover the threat we have to the American people and the core beliefs of this country would be a blessing and a service to all non-Muslim Americans. The American people need this protection. I urge President Trump and all of congress to support this possible solution. This Muslim theocracy is a very real threat to the American people. You only have to look to Europe, France and Germany to see what happens when the Muslim population reaches critical mass. Please consider legislation to this end. God Bless America and President Donald J. Trump.

There’s no such thing as a “Palestinian” because there’s no such thing as Palestine. You won’t find on any map in the present or the past because it never existed.

Brilliant observation! I never thought about that truth, from that perspective.
I just watched and listened to his perpetually-lying lips move for 10 (not 8) years I knew, then, that (like the only god (Allah) who permits, promotes and approves of lying) he was of his father, the devil (the father of lies).
Custos Custodum says
Barry Obama was not a “stealth” jihadists.
As far back as 2008, it was quite clear to everyone WILLING TO SEE that Obama was a Muslim socialist backed by internationalist billionaires including George Soros.
Soros had made a point of placing himself in the picture of Obama’s launch party in NYC.
Another obvious indication was the screeching insistence in the NY Times and throughout the MSM that Obama was a “Christian.” Even the bought-and-paid-for John McCain mouthed this formula as part of his strategy of selling the election to Soros.
Simple rule: if atheists certify that someone is a Christian, he is not.

Every word you posted is the truth! I knew it from the beginning just as you did. It’s a shame so many people refused to see or hear the reality of who Obama was then and who he still is. Someone posted recently that the Obama’s are far more Godly than Trump. My response was:He didn’t look very Godly to me when he was face down on the white house lawn with his butt up in the air praying to Allah along with his Muslim friends! I also said Obama didn’t seem Godly to me when he refused to allow Christians who were being tortured, burned alive, and beheaded by the thousands to enter our country as refugees but he welcomed any Muslim who wanted to cross the border to come in, fed them, clothed them, provided housing for them and gave them money! Those two facts alone tell the true story of Barack Obama… although of course, there are countless other examples of his deceit and hatred for American citizens!

quota raven says
Ann – that is my question as well, and I am eager for an answer. An article from the Washington Times (referred to by a commenter here) is a great deal less specific about whether indeed these funds have been actually “frozen”. I’m afraid it is beginning to look like that is not possible, given Obama’s disregard for the two congressmen who put a “hold” on the funds. Time will tell, but if what Dave sez below is true, we’re screwed. Here’s what he reports:
“Congress had initially approved the Palestinian funding in budget years 2015 and 2016, but at least two GOP lawmakers — Ed Royce of California, the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and Kay Granger of Texas, who sits on the House Appropriations Committee — had placed holds on it over moves the Palestinian Authority had taken to seek membership in international organizations. Congressional holds are generally respected by the executive branch but are not legally binding after funds have been allocated.”
Does anyone here really think Obama will “respect” this congressional hold? Come over here; I have a bridge I want you to take a look at…
Cheers!

Next move? How about you demand the all the taxpayer money that has been paid to Iran through the UNSIGNED Nuke deal, be returned as Iran has never signed the treaty? How many billion was that? Then, you revoke all visa of people from nations that promote Islamic terrorism and deport them. That means those here on college scholarships too. Just because they are students does not make them any less a threat than anybody else from those nations. Follow that up by removing all illegal aliens from public assistance of any kind, including public education and put a ban on teaching in Spanish in our public schools. We can nearly make up half our debt by taking these steps.
baldath ramessarsingh says
Although not american still agree with you,a man must put his house in order before putting another man house in order,very very good job by Mr president.

I am a Canadian senior female as well and have had the same experience as you. However, I do have a couple of friends who know what is going on and a family member, every little bit helps.

quota raven says
To Susan B and Lynne – I’m your US counterpart, living in crazy Portland, Oregon. I have the same experience, and most especially with the young people in their late 30s and through the 40s. They are strangely subject to a whole quite socialist ethic in so many cases, and I feel I really have to play it down in speaking with my son, not that he was thrilled with Hill. As a small business owner, he’s getting more savvy about how politics can affect his life very directly, and I think a lot of things Trump is doing are having positive impace.
This new friend, a lady who grew up in CA, she’s absolutely immersed in leftism! I tried to talk to her about jihad, and she got a book out of the library and gave it to me to read! It was by that guy at Georgetown we all love to bash – bought and paid for by Saudi Arabians, like the whole university. She had only glanced at it, but she told me she’d rather believe the vast, vast majority of muslims were just great. To simplify our conversation, I told her those were not the muslims I am interested in (not entirely true); that I would prefer to study and know about jihadis. She actually said to me that she’d rather not know!

Congress had initially approved the Palestinian funding in budget years 2015 and 2016, but at least two GOP lawmakers — Ed Royce of California, the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and Kay Granger of Texas, who sits on the House Appropriations Committee — had placed holds on it over moves the Palestinian Authority had taken to seek membership in international organizations. Congressional holds are generally respected by the executive branch but are not legally binding after funds have been allocated.
Jhl says
So what??? It just means that Congress has a lot of explaining to do. They are known Terrorists who’s budget for suicide bombers family’s was 1.6 million for 2016
Really want to pay for that???
I want to know what was it for??
Exactly for medicine, housing, education??? Stop sending our money to other countries without a actual reason.
quota raven says
Not good news, Dave. Obama (“the executive branch”) has no respect or regard for congress whatsoever, hence his failure to respect the hold.
I’m not convinced of the accuracy of this slightly manic report from JW. I’m hoping, but it doesn’t look too good from where I stand…

This is just another slap in the face to Israel following the dumbassery of the obama administration’s abstaining to vote on the resolution at the U.N. Security Council condemning Israel

Perhaps the “obama administration’s abstaining to vote on the resolution at the U.N” is a blessing in disguise, it has brought the stupidity of the UN to the forefront and therefore it may be time to consider disposing of this islamic tool.

Graven – I agree, but the Washington Times does not say he’s actually going to be able to “freeze” the $$$, given Congress’s previous approval in 2013 and 2014. I’m not as giddy as I was when I first read this news here, and I’m not too confident that President Trump can actually freeze these funds at this point. Fingers crossed, though.

Gail – Thank you for digging up this report.
Please note, though, that the article says, “The Trump administration said Tuesday it’s reviewing a possible “adjustment” of former President Obama’s release of more than $220 million to the Palestinian Authority, hours before he left office last week.”:
To “review a possible adjustment”…etc, is a FAR CRY from “FREEZING” this $200,000,000.
I believe that Trump cannot do this, in fact, given that Obama chose to override the congressional hold.

My first reaction at 5am this morning was utter joy, but later in the day, I have become worried, as I could not find any corroboration whatsoever from any other news source for this story. Not on Google or the radio news, including Fox, or Breitbart or any other conservative blogs I subscribe to..Not a mention, not a hint.
I’m a touch dismayed at this point. Hope someone will respond with some supportive reports of this story from a source other than World Israel News.

Can anyone provide authentication or at least provide another source for the World Israel News report here presented as the source for this story? I’m unfamiliar with World Israel News, and much as I want to believe it, I am puzzled that I cannot find one other news source reporting that Trump did, indeed, freeze this attempted gift from Obama to the “palestinians”.
It’s been nowhere on the radio news or on any news talk shows I’ve happened upon, and the only source when I googled this story under breaking news I found was JW and World Israel News.
Can anyone help here? Any other source at all?

Hi, Graven – I greeted this news early this morning with the greatest joy, however as the day progressed and I could find nothing to substantiate that this move has been successfully undertaken by President Trump, I am faltering in my confidence that the story is true, ie, that this is a fait accomplis..
“reviewing a possible “adjustment” of former President Obama’s release of more than $220 million to the Palestinian Authority,” (from the Washington Times article) is a far cry from “freezing” the funds.
I don’t believe it is possible to stop the funds from going where Obama meant them to go, as he is not respecting the congressional hold on these funds.
Sorry to report that’s how I see it at this point. V disappointed.

Good start for Trump despite resistance from a retarded left in disarray.
For me, the greatest boost for his credentials would be to call a spade a spade and Obama a Muslim.
Paleologos says
The Trump administration has frozen Obama’s parting gift to the the Palestinians.
Former US President Barack Obama, in his waning hours, quietly released $221 million to the Palestinian Authority (PA), which Congress had been blocking.
The Trump administration announced it is freezing the move.
The State Department is reviewing the last-minute decision by former Secretary of State John Kerry to send $221 million dollars to the Palestinians.

Chrsi Chin says
Dear President Trump
I think the USD221 million would be better spent on providing aid to the poor US ex-servicemen, ie. the US arm forces veterans. Use the money to help your fellow Americans who are in need of assistance rather than helping palestinians. Besides giving the money to palestinians would only mean the money will end up in PLO’s hands to be used to buy arms to continue their terror acts against humanity.
paddy O'CONNOR says
Pres.Trump knows instinctively that Obama’s payoff to the terrorists will likely pay for his attempted assassination in the future.
n tesdorf says
It’s been a long long time since the US had a decent president and I am still amazed to see how well Trump is performing on all fronts. He just saved them $221,000,000 which would have gone straight to Palestinian Rocket Launcers and Crack Palestinian Suicide Squads. With Trump, it is winning, winning, winning all the way..

Looking at the photo of President Trump above, I don’t think I have ever seen a man with a happier expression on his face. And it makes me happy to to hear of his actions as President. Things that have been begging to be done for years.

Thank you Mr. Trump, I thought Obama and the cowardly republicans who also voted….two abstained, so I thank you….this is just one that got stopped…..too bad he was able to send billions to the state sponsor of terror..who also aids caliphate wars.
The temporary ban on immigration of the caliphate soldiers warriors…need to be expanded and quick, since under Obama anyone from Saudi Arabia many other terrorist can cross into this no ban country, can fly in to the U.S. without any problem…to any American International Airport….the terrorist are not just tied to countries they do not recognize borders or states, just land area, in the drive to infiltrate, appear tolerant and work behind the radar.

Here’s something for the Twittersphere – “No more Jizya. No more Tribute. No more money for the Mob” (the Mob being the Ummah, or Mohammedan Mob).
And Thomas Jefferson’s immortal line, as he prepared to create the US Navy in order to deal with the Muslim Barbary Pirates who had been waging jihad against US merchant shipping, and demanding huuuge amounts of money, in order to be ‘bought off’ (but *still* kept attacking the ships) – “Millions for defence! **Not a *penny* for tribute!”.
If there’s one thing Trump *should* understand quite well, it’s the principle of “follow the money”. I think he has an inkling of how *dependent* the Ummah is on all the money it’s been sucking off the Infidels… and he is setting out to *use* the money weapon.
I wonder whether he is aware of Paul Sperry’s “Muslim Mafia”?? I wonder whether he or any of his team have read it? Because when he’s going for the money jugular, like this, it makes me wonder.
Question: his metier is real estate. I wonder whether he has, tucked in a safe somewhere, a couple of fat dossiers carefully compiled over the past twenty-plus years, with an inventory of liquid and illiquid assets, within the USA, that are owned by assorted sinister mohammedan entities and personages?? And a list of which mosques are financed by whom and in what ways? I wouldn’t put it past him.

Another bad thing about giving this money away is that we don’t have it. The Federal Government is borrowing nearly 50% of what it spends. The Federal Reserve sells US Bonds and Notes to cover the revenue shortage so we literally borrowed $110,000,000 in order to give this money away. This policy is simply nuts.

Palestinian’s are no different then, all the other terrorist groups. You may think they are just fighting over the border issue, but they want death to all Jews, American’s.
