Might be them all are there to get their share in the "deal'" ? ummm....
2. Juan Jose Daboub is partly right
Ypip ,   Canada   (03.01.09)
But any attempt to aid Gaza without a viable military force in Gaza to put a check on the terrorist organization hamas is a complete waste of money and time.
3. Some of that money should go to building rocket shelters
rebecca ,   modiin   (03.01.09)
in Israel.
4. How, if Israel doesn't even allow Pasta?
Observer   (03.01.09)
5. Who the hell is blair? And who needs the quartet?
jason white ,   afula,israel   (03.01.09)
They give money to the terrorist gaza so they will build and buy more rockets and mortars to fire at Israel. We need to strike gaza so hard they surrender and leave. Anyone who donates money to gaza is donating the money in the hopes that it will be used to kill Jews! No one worries about us,but they worry about the well being of terrorists and their families.
6. Money pouring in:US/EU 2 faced foreign policy, what is
Sandi   (03.01.09)
hamas' incentive to stop beig a terrorist organization? NONE. No matter what those terrorists/suicide bombers due, Israel's "dear friends"(LOL), US, EU keep rebuilting the hamas bastards. THANK YOU US/EU FOR YOUR SO CALLED FRIENDSHIP! I am disgusted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
7. EU rebuilding new targets for IDF - THANK YOU!

8. REBUILD S'DEROT...FAIR"S FAIR !
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (03.01.09)
9. Palestinians take donors to the cleaners again
JPS ,   Efrat   (03.01.09)
Here we go again... billions of dollars will be dumped into the Palestinians hands, of which maybe 50 or 60 percent will actually do some good. That's much better than the old days under Arafat, of course, when good 'ol Yasser hoodwinked the donors and convinced them that transparent accounting wasn't necessary. These days, one wonders where those billions are going to go, and how much of it will be skimmed off by the fatcat Pal warlords who control the different commodities. Or will the taxpayers from the infidel countries... ooops, sorry, the sucker taxpayers from the west....oops, I mean those well meaning western folks who are so willing to party with their money... will the taxpayers actually demand an accounting of where that money went, and which Palestinian thugs got paid off or bought off? After decades of pouring billions and billions of dollars into the Palestinian black hole, why aren't people asking where that money is all going? And yes, a lot of it goes to support the Palestinian war machine, as pathetic as it is.
10. Hamas in Gaza
zionist forever   (03.01.09)
Thank you Mr Blair all that money will buy us a huge arsnal of rockets and other weapons. We will reward you with honery citizenship of Hamastan just like we gave to your wife's sister when she came to visit. We will even build you an underground house.
11. Blair Adds Another String To His Bow
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (03.01.09)
He likes to play second Fiddle to no-one as the Palestinians in Gaza "fiddle" their expenses and the Quartet play their music ....aah fetch the violins.
12. Terror enablers of the Quartet just never learn
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, DC USA   (03.02.09)
Lesson one: As long as terror and aggression is cost-free, there is no disincentive to more terror and aggression. Here's the real "cycle of violence": Hamas initiates aggression with willing or unwilling complicity of civilian population. Hamas suffers a beat-down, civilians lose lives and infrastructure. Foreigners come in to rebuild everything. Repeat. Lesson two: Money is fungible. Foreigners supply food, education, health care, build infrastructure. Hamas is free spend money on weapons and military training. Here end of the lesson. How dense must Blair be not to understand?
