Condoms for Tip of the Iceberg

Pres. Trump announces USAID may have spent money on condoms for Palestinians (The Independent/Youtube)

Donald Trump said to have stopped the sending of $50 million earmarked for condoms for Gaza, i.e. condoms for Hamas terrorists. The joke seems funny until you find out that Hamas has been using kites, balloons, and condoms to launch explosive devices against Israel for years. Anyway, I am disturbed by the numbers. Public agencies handle budgets as if they were the offspring of the greatest Saudi sheikh. Let's get out the calculator:
Fifty million dollars, even if you paid $1 a piece, means 50 million condoms. If there are about 20,000 Hamas terrorists alive in the Gaza Strip, each of these bastards would get 2,500 condoms in the distribution. If we take into account that, on average, the annual — consensual — sexual relations of Hamas terrorists amount to the exciting figure of zero, there is a surplus of 2,500 condoms for each terrorist, which they can use — if we can get them to leave the goats alone — for other purposes, such as launching balloons. Of balloon bombs.
Suspicions that something very shady was hidden behind these bizarre subsidy networks are growing.
An astonishing fact is that all the progressive verification agencies have been running around like headless chickens trying to deny or qualify the information. And it's not because of the condom issue. It's just an attempt to discredit Trump's cuts in theoretical foreign aid which, actually, in many, many cases has served to fund foreign enemies and has thus become more like domestic harm.
It is surprising (not much, really) that these fact-checking clowns, in their attempt to ridicule Trump, hide the fact that Israel has found thousands of these balloons and condoms in the past, loaded with helium — coming, incidentally, from humanitarian aid for hospitals — and explosive substances, not normally considered ingredients for a romantic evening with a happy ending.
The dismantling of USAID has made the elites on the left very nervous. Suspicions that something very shady was hidden behind these bizarre su...
