Sure It's Economics, But Is It Art?
The WTO folks might be really good at counting things, but they're pretty lousy when it comes to logic:
Nearly half of the Palestinian population is living below the poverty line on barely $2 a day or less, a World Bank report stated... Titled "Four Years – Intifada, Closures, and Palestinian Economic Crisis," the report blames the dire state of the PA economy on Israel and its policy of imposing closures and restrictions on PA areas. The World Bank report says unemployment has risen to 27%.
Wouldn't you want to blame the Intifada on, say, the terrorist who started it? Or on the 59% of Palestinians who would continue fighting it even if Israel gave them a state? But I mean, why blame the Intifada on the people responsible for it when you can blame Jews?
