I think the hearing has been very productive.

It is not easy to run all these hearings without a scorecard, and we do not work on a text.

Well, the agencies do not appear to be moving with much dispatch on it.

To combat that kind of inciting video of the suicide bombers and what you have plans to do to come to hand-to-hand combat with that kind of trash, garbage, and incitement.

Any television? Curricula is very passive. Television is very active.

Do the current textbooks being given to--in Palestinian schools to fourth-graders, fifth-graders, sixth-graders, seventh-graders contain hateful information about Israel and Jews?

The subcommittee would like an answer to the question specifically.

Well, it's a subtle matter as to how you combat it.

I think that Senator Clinton has put her finger on the critical point about the Palestinian Authority repudiating suicide bombing.

The characterization at the end about child abusers is a vast understatement. They're civilization abusers.

I found these videos to be absolutely shocking--absolutely shocking that teenagers... desired goal in life is to be a suicide bomber.

Well, okay, that's good news.

Where they refused to sign the pledge, do you advance U.S. aid to them?

Let us know what is being done at the present time----

Anything that, head-on, hits the inducement to these young Palestinians to commit suicide with a bombing?

$20 million was given to the Palestinian Authority to help Abu Masen in his effort to become the Prime Minister.

Well, we'd like to have it, because every year we take a look at your request for money, and the budget is extremely tight, and we'd like to know what value is being received by the U.S. Government for the $17 million a year.

Well, are you essentially saying that the way things are today, with former Prime Minister Abu Masen having departed, that there will be no further payments by the U.S. Government to the Palestinian Authority?
