    UNRWA. It's like this...

    So, I see Saudi Arabia, & Kuwait, & Qatar, & Turkey on the list…not listed as others… But I don’t see Iran (who has figured out an alternative method of donating to Palestinians), or Iraq, or Jordan, or Syria, or Yemen or Oman…or Egypt or South Africa or Afghanistan or Pakistan? Queer that...

    If a Palestinian hijacking takes place, and let’s say the plane is diverted to Tehran (?), Who pays the carbon offset credits? UNRWA? Israel? The country the plane was coming from or the country the plane was going to? The airline?
