Uselessness of the Palestinian Authority — Shireen Abu Akleh's murder bullet goes to the wrong people for investigation

After a while, blanket incompetence becomes tiresome

 

For example, this:

 

 

The Palestinian Authority has handed over to US forensic experts the bullet that killed Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh during an Israeli raid in the occupied West Bank last month, according to Palestinian officials.

 

Akram al-Khatib, general prosecutor for the Palestinian Authority, had said that officials had “agreed to transfer the bullet to the Americans for examination”, however conflicting reports over who would conduct the tests on the bullet emerged on Sunday, with an Israeli military spokesman telling Army Radio:

 

“The test will not be American. The test will be an Israeli test, with an American presence throughout.”

 

Al-Khatib, meanwhile, told Voice of Palestine radio that officials had received “guarantees” from the US “that the examination will be conducted by them and that the Israeli side will not take part”.

 

The US did not immediately comment on the opposing claims.

 

The United Nations human rights office last month said that information it had gathered showed that the bullet that killed Abu Akleh on May 11 was fired by Israeli forces.

Explain this nonsense to me

 

Why would you give your Satanic enemy's 'bestest' and Pure Lapdog friend, the United States — the murder bullet evidence — so that he (she, it and they) could lie, misdirect and/or conceal what actually happened?

 

 

The moral? — Expecting one's literally mortal enemies to save one's pitiful ass is — idiotic

 

With pseudo-governments like the Palestinian Authority, on-the-ground Palestinians are doomed to yet more interminably futile suffering.

 

And sadly, after a while, We the Non-involved run out of sympathetic patience and support for such haplessly spawned kill-me-now dither-monging.
