Re: Money Laundering - Where is our hard earned honest American taxes going??

bs"d

Recently the news is filled with articles condemning Jews for money laundering and for tax evasion.  Naturally, I do not promote money laundering or tax evasion.  However, wouldn't most honest Americans prefer that their hard earned tax money be spent on  Torah religious institution rather than to Educational Institutions that promote terror and terrorists http://palwatch.org/main.aspx?fi=608

Is America using a substantial amount of tax money  to benefit  America or is that money being spent in ways that will actually bring harm to America and to Israel?

Here are some examples:

• 20.3 Million Dollars to relocate residents of Gaza to America   It is a known fact that Gaza after the expulsion of Jews, is run by Hamas terrorists who have terrorized Southern Israel with rocket attacks and who would love to see the Jews and the Jewish State annihilated.  Their ideology is no different than Nazi ideology and surpasses in passion by encouraging Jihad, and to be a Shahid a Martyr, to commit suicide for the sake of this "Holy War" against infidels.   Why would Obama want these people in our country?

• United States provides billions of dollars of loans to Israel but they are tied to conditions. U.S. re-approves Israel loan guarantees program   
  

"According to the deal, the guarantees amount may be reduced for activities "the president of the United States determines are inconsistent with the objectives and understandings reached between the United States and State of Israel regarding implementation of the loan guarantee program."

United States does not recognize Judea and Samaria. parts of Jerusalem as legal and therefore are applying all kinds of pressures to end settlement in Judea and Samaria and parts of Jerusalem.  As a result, kindergartens are not being built in these areas and housing permits are not being issued.  Checkpoints necessary for security for Jews in Judea and Samaria are being dismantled in the name of increasing freedom for Palestinians. (Freedom for more acts of terror?) Natural growth in Judea and Samaria is being affected by these "conditions".

• USAID Inaugurated New Projects in the Northern West Bank

  Many of these houses are empty but are situated along the highway providing a safe haven for terrorists to attack Israeli vehicles on the road.
  

...Since 1994, USAID has provided more than $2.2 billion in U.S. economic assistance to Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza via projects designed to reduce poverty, improve health and education, implement infrastructure and water projects, create jobs, and promote democracy and good governance.

• U.S. Embassy, Consulate Cater to Arabs (INN Aug 6-7/09) 

The US officially regards as "occupied territory" all of Judea and Samaria and all parts of Jerusalem, including the Old City and the Western Wall (Kotel) that were restored to the Jewish State in the Six-Day War in 1967.  Their website caters only to Arabs.  Please note that there is no Hebrew on this website.

Why is America honoring Mary Robinson?

• US General Builds a Palestinian Army   According to this article as of May 2009 th US has spent $161 Million dollars to train a Palestinian Army who allegedly is supposed to fight gangsters and Hamas.  It is quite clear that this "army" is to build an army for a Palestinian State which is clearly against Israel's wishes and harmful for Israel's security.  Why would we want our tax money to go for this?

• Israel suffers another blow from the Obama administration

Ed Lasky writes: "The Obama administration has announced reversal of an important policy toward Israel, one that weakens that nation's ability to survive in its hostile neighborhood.

The key to Israel's strategy to avoid another Holocaust has been a policy of ambiguity over the question of whether it has nuclear weapons. Like many high-tech and potent weapons, a nuclear arsenal is best left sheathed. The reluctance of Israel to sign the nuclear non-proliferation treaty (NNPT) has allowed it to avoid a raft of intrusive inspections that might blow this policy of ambiguity to smithereens...
There is a range of tools that Barack Obama can use to try to compel Israel into signing the NNPT: threats to partnerships on weapons development, threats to withhold support in international organizations, public rebukes, threats regarding foreign aid and loan guarantees, and other ploys that can be used to coerce Israel into signing the Treaty."

So rather than filling up our Jewish newspapers with articles condemning and vilifying those arrested for tax evasion, lets take a closer look at the evils being perpetrated against Israel with LEGAL taxpaying Dollars.  The more we look into it the more people might find justification to stop paying taxes unless they know that their taxes will be going to places that benefit America and society rather than to places that promotes terror and is to the detriment of America and Israel. And the more prosecutors publicize the evils of tax evasion highlighting the Jews, the greater our campaign should be to publicize the evils of our tax money supporting terrorist educational institutions and a terror  Palestinian State.

The PA has its origins with an ideology aligned with Nazi Germany and whose founding father, the Mufti of Jerusalem was a partner with Hitler.

Let us emphasize and publicize the importance for Israel's ability to defend itself against its enemies.
