An Egyptian business friend of mine told me this by email from Cairo .

a fake state the money reflects the culture

I think it is a fair deal. Arab "brothers" give the Pals fake hopes. and people in Gaza give back fake currency. A culture of fraud at its best!

there is only one thing i can say "LOL"

we already have enough problems....

State is fake, your existance reflects your culture, so fake you LOL

What could be more telling when the Palestinians cheat their fellow Arabs who cry crocodile tears for the "poor Palestinians". We had no business giving up Gaza. We need to retake Gaza, push the Palestinians back to the Arab's who "love" them so much and ensure permanent peace.

I recall a photo taken from the rubble of a building in one of Hizbullah's neighborhoods during the war of 2006. There, in plain view, was a sheet of newly printed US dollars. Counterfeit, of course. I wouldn't be surprised if many of those piles of cash handed out by Hizbullah in the aftermath of the war were similarly counterfeit.

THE PALS ARE FAKE, THEY CAME FROM JORDAN, ITS TIME THEY WENT BACK.

Palestinians seem to have a tradition of biting the hand that feeds them.

if only they used fake bombs and rockets as well

The article states: "Sinai is a holy place for Egyptian citizens and is not saleable or merchandisable," an official said. What happened in the Sinai that makes it so holy to the Egyptians?

real US paper currency, turns a certain color if the currency if real and another color if the currency is forged. Such pens are readily available and most stores I have gone to have them and use them on bills that are twenty or fifty or a hundred dollars. That protects the store but it also puts a clerk at risk since someone passing forged money might also have a weapon.

Right...you're writing to us from Gaza huh? My guess would be somewhere closer to Berkely Ca. Nailed it did'nt I?

The Bedouin in the Sinai are very poor people,and to be ripped off by the very same people that they helped all this time,is beyond contempt.

that was the news in Egyptian newspapers, few days back

I realize there are times when reality may become so bizare so confused that you never know what may happen so desperate people may print money to them it is real although of course only money printed by the American government is regarded as real there is a special test made by local grocery stores if they suspect forged money perhaps you may contact the American government for assisstance as to this item some kind of special ink pen allowed to test for counter fiet money but again you must expect poor desperate people to possibly try any thing RIGHT ??? thank you...
