Seeing as the governor and Globe are promoting the globalist agenda I say burn it:
"West Bank tech firms, Patrick try to build bridges, business" October 20, 2011|By Hiawatha Bray, Globe Staff
For many Americans, the words West Bank evoke political conflicts between Palestinians and Israelis, not a sophisticated high-tech community. In that light, a group of Palestinian high-tech entrepreneurs met with local companies and Governor Deval Patrick this month to help change that region’s reputation here, and to form ties with the state’s technology community....
Murad Tahboub, a partner, founder, and managing director of Asal Technologies, a software development company in Ramallah, said American companies desperate for technically trained workers should look to the Palestinian territories....
We are cutting off funds at the UN because they want to be a state.
Tahboub said that American companies could benefit from outsourcing software development work to tech companies in the West Bank and Gaza. “There is usually a shortage of software developers in the US, and they are looking for destinations outside the US’’ such as India, he said. “We believe we can also be one of those destinations.’’
Was it worth going into debt for that worthless college degree, 'murkn kid?
Besides, gaining a foothold in the West Bank could help US companies sell more products throughout the Arab Middle East, where demand for digital technologies is growing fast, he added....
Can't we ever do anything because it is right and just? Why must everything in the agenda-pushing paper be connected to the buck?

As Palestinians literally starve.
And to make myself clear, I do not want Palestinians to remain in the dark regarding high-tech. That is not the problem. The problem is the never-ending blockade and sanction against their increasingly-diminishing territory.
