Oxfam attributes Palestinian humanitarian situation to "lack of money"
Oxfam’s February 21, 2007 press release continued the organization’s current trend of interpreting the Palestinian humanitarian situation through a narrow political perspective. It called on the Quartet to end its "boycott" and Israel to release “confiscated taxes.” Oxfam further stated that "[i]nternal conflicts in the Occupied Palestinian Territories have been greatly exacerbated by the inability of the PA to deliver essential services because of a lack of money." In its statement, Oxfam ignores Palestinian corruption and financial mismanagement.
