Actors Hugh Grant and Viggo Mortensen are among more than 25 celebrities and public figures expressing "horror" over President Donald Trump's decision to cut funding to the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, an advocacy group said Thursday
...
Actresses Gillian Anderson, Olivia Wilde, Emma Thompson and Tilda Swinton were also among the signatories.
The letter was released by the Hoping Foundation, a London-based group that assists Palestinian children.
Washington subsequently suspended a $65 million payment to UNRWA, the U.N. agency that provides education, health care and other social services to over 5 million Palestinian refugees and their descendants scattered across the Middle East.

How many posters here think that this "horror" is so bad that they (the celebrities) will pitch in to make the payment themselves?
(It's on $2.5m per celebrity)
The Horror!!

Meh. If the Sunnis love the Palestinians so much they can support them. I'm so over the ME.

When I read the title, I thought this might be a Jane Fonda thread#Cheech and Chong
