What would you think if the United States was going to give money to a terrorist organization that is offering a reward to anyone who kidnaps a soldier in the military of one of our allies? Well, that’s pretty much what’s happening. The Obama administration pledged $900 million to the muslim terrorist organization Hamas who is offering the sum of one million Jordanian dinars (about $400k) to anyone who kidnaps an Israeli soldier and delivers them to Hamas. It’s a new bounty reported by the Associated Press and repeated online in Deseret News, Jihad Watch, and other websites.
Hamas has asked Arabs in Israel to kidnap Israeli soldiers before but they haven’t previously been known to offer such a reward. So why now? Despite having various income streams from cells here in the United States, private benefactors, Iran, and Saudi Arabia they’ve never offered this type of ransom. Add to that the budget shortfalls in their political wing, Palestinian Authority, and it just makes you wonder where they think they’ll get the money. I’m guessing they think their buddy Barack Obama is going to come through.
