Not necessarily political but it gives some good perspective on diplomacy.
Yesterday over 66 nations pledged to give aid to the Palestinian Authority, with the United States pledging $555 million, second to the European Union, which promised $650 million. Sweden a lone, however, pledged a whopping $210 million over two years time.
How is a nation of 10 million people with an economy less than 1/50 the size of ours giving nearly half as much money as we are?
