1. "Dignity and human security"
BUILD BABY BUILD !!   (01.17.18)
After years of the PA encouraged violent terror against the Jews in Israel
( and Americans like Taylor Force ) the pals now beg using words like dignity and human security?

Are they living in a parallel universe?

Had they acted like dignified humans they wouldn't be begging for bread.

Let their fellow Arabs give them assistance America is finished playing into their blood stained hands.
2. Ask those Syrian Arabs
Rami ,   Helsinki   (01.17.18)
Thousands of these so called refugees are fighting for Assad and terrorizing peaceful Kurdish, Turkmen and Sunni Arab Syrian civilians who want nothing to do with dictator Assad. It has been estimated that about 16 000 of these so called refugees are fighting for Assad. Where is the dignity in this.
3. These cunning Arabs (parading as Palestinians) have long ago
(01.17.18)
taken the European/American dignity.... or maybe it was never there to be "taken" ?
4. Go to Your European Sponsors
Rotem Adler ,   Paris-France   (01.17.18)
Mr. Krähenbüh, go to Sweden, Norway, France, Spain, United Kingdom, the richest nations of Europe, who sponsors and aplauds the sacrosant Palestinian rigths to Kill Jews, to beg for the money you urgently need to keep teaching Arab children how to Hate Jews, so when they grow older will be excelent terrorists.
5. UNRWA
Emanuel B. Krauskopf ,   Berlin   (01.17.18)
For decades the UN has operated the UNRWA, for the Palestinians, ONLY!
Close it! No other refugees get this special treatment!
UNRWA is an organization which has one goal, only: To keep the Palestinians as refugees for generations and generations with the goal to build an ever bigger reservoir of radical Islamist fighters aiming for the destruction of Israel.
Enough is enough!
6. Fake refugee organization for a Fake people
MadDad ,   Johannesburg   (01.17.18)
For the last 70 years UNWRA has been milking the USA
Thank you Trump for being the only president that can see through this charade
7. "Dignity and human security"-get a job and stop sponging .
Alan   (01.17.18)
8. UN Failure
DG ,   New York   (01.17.18)
The idea that these Arabs (I will not use the made up word "Palestinians") for a third generation have not been fully integrated as citizens with equal rights in the countries where they live is absurd. This is a UN failure. Remind Abbas about what happens when you bite the hand that feeds you. I suggest that he pull out the list of countries that voted against the US move on Jerusalem at the UN and ask for money.
9. If the PA weren’t so reckless
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (01.17.18)
Squandering up to $100m EACH and EVERY YEAR as ‘blood money’ FOR LIFE to all comers who kill and mame

How can the PA continue to justify these obscene payments that are bleeding Palestinian Society DRY and indeed undermining the prospect of statehood

The PA MUST stop these payments ONCE and FOR ALL for the good of Palestinian Society AS A WHOLE
10. How To Keep Refugees
Jane ,   Palm Beach, FL   (01.17.18)
The Palestinians had figured out a way to keep refugees for four generations in a state of flux through UNRWA. Time to stop this sham and allow Palestinians their own land next to Israel. Funding refugees is against their own interests. Enough is enough.
11. If Mr. UNRWA Commissioner-General Pierre Krähenbüh is so
A ,   OutThere   (01.17.18)
concerned about helping miserable moslems, which the imaginary "palestinians" aren't, perhaps he should use U.selesst N.obodies funds to help the Rohynga moslems, who aren't terrorists dedicated to destroying another country, but who are in dire need of assistance.
12. Dignity and Palestinians? I don't think so.
Koose E Mack ,   NY Great Satan   (01.17.18)
13. UNRWA’s rape of the English language.
Cushi ,   Brisbane   (01.18.18)
"At stake is the dignity and human security of millions of Palestine refugees."
In the west when they think of a refugee camp their mind picture is that of tents rain, wind, dust, heat etc.
UNRWA’s so called “Palestinian refugee camp” is a suburb like any other suburb in Arab towns or villages within the Arab-world with paved roads, footpaths, street lights, running water, electricity, shops etc. postal, bus and taxi services. The million dollar question is why shouldn’t the Arab world pay for the cleanup of what is visibly poor sewer and rubbish collection services in those suburbs.
14. Responsibility of saudis.
olavi ,   espoo   (01.20.18)
Why an earth must west pay those idle people to be free travellers while saudis pay nothing
