Actually, it was part of your initial point, and was the initial point I was disputing. You have since moved the goal posts. Here was the one I initially quoted:

Now you have indicated you want to talk about all aid. OK.

The UN not only supplies massive amounts of monetary aid but they build things and they have workers in the Palestinian Authority working for free.

They get aid from the Arab world, muslim charities, etc..

Here is a report on Humanitarian Aid that each country receives:

Palestine gets the most per capita and its not close. Please note that Israel is not on this list as they get military aid, not humanitarian. But it doesn't include the other sources of Palestinian aid either.
LOL, first off, I reviewed that report. Yes, there are more world wide donors. No, there is no number that I can find that supports your latest claim (even with the goal posts moved now.) It is a lot closer, and perhaps even.

And if you think that there isn't other "aid" going to Israel, you are crazy.

Anyway, I am done. I detest this whole situation.

I stand by my first reply to you in that you made a statement that is factually misleading at best, inaccurate at worst.
