For whatever reason, the United States withheld funds for the Palestine government and that shortage has been taken care of by bunch of European countries.  It proves couple of points.  One being that the United States may not have any help available to solve the Middle East issue between Israel and the Palestine regardless how serious these two countries (USA and Israel) may be to wok on this old lingering issue.Secondly, like many other Muslim countries, Palestine government does not mind going door to door with a begging bowl to survive instead of creating jobs locally to employ people, bring industry to Palestine, educate the masses so that they become productive citizens.  I wonder how long they can survive on external help.  I think by not becoming self-dependent, Palestine government is weakening its position in the world forum.
