The President announced a few weeks ago that he was asking our allies to accept Gitmo detainees. France turned him down. Germany turned him down. Great Britain turned him down. Australia turned him down. So the president got out a copy of “The Idiot’s Guide to the U.N.” and started going down the membership list.

Great news. One of our “major allies” just agreed to accept 17 Chinese Uighur Muslim detainees. Palau. Yes, Palau.

Questions abound. Let’s review one at a time:

Question #1: Where the hell is Palau?
Answer #1: 500 miles east of the Philippines, 2000 miles south of Toyko, a million miles from Washington, DC.

Question #2: Why haven’t I heard of it?
Answer #2: It’s one of the world’s smallest nations. It’s been off the radar since World War II. It only has 20,000 residents. It’s not surprising that you haven’t heard of it, because they can’t decide if their name is Palau or Belau or Pelew.

Question #3: What’s China’s reaction to this move?
Answer #3: No word from China yet, but Palau is one of the few countries that doesn’t recognize China and still maintains diplomatic relations with Taiwan.

Question #4: Why are they accepting the detainees?
Answer #4: President Johnson Toribiong says its “a humanitarian gesture” and “but a small thing we can do to thank our best friend and ally for all it has done for Palau.”

Question #5: No, really. Why is Palau taking the detainees?
Answer #5: Keep an eye on President Obama’s foreign aid budget. We’d be surprised if every Palauian (or Belauian or Pelewian) doesn’t end up a multi-millionaire before this is over.

And from Hotair.com, I see:

Palau has accepted the Obama administration’s offer of $200 million to bring 17 trained al-Qaeda terrorists to their island nation. The government in Palau announced this morning that they would agree to it as a gesture of friendship to the US for all of our assistance to them. They also don’t mind doubling their GDP this year

Well at least this will add to Rush’s little enterprise. Nice to see someone on the right making a buck off of this too.
