Why does a UN agency the world calls "humanitarian" keep producing Hamas company commanders disguised as schoolteachers?
A US federal probe just flagged 101 more UNRWA staff as October 7 participants tied to Hamas's military wing. School principals. Math teachers. Psychosocial counselors. A sniper. A man tasked with moving anti-tank missiles on the morning of the massacre.
If a "deputy school principal" is also a deputy company commander in the al-Qassam Brigades, who exactly was teaching the children, and what were they teaching them?
How does an organization claim it cannot possibly vet its own staff for terror ties, while Hamas somehow has no trouble identifying which of those same staff to embed as platoon commanders and squad leaders?
At what point does "isolated individuals" stop being a credible defense? 108 already blacklisted, 101 more referred, an investigation spanning 1,500 suspected staffers. What's the number that finally changes your mind, 5,000? 10,000? Is there one?
Why have UN agencies reportedly stonewalled the investigators rather than open their files?
Why did it take a US inspector general, not the UN's own internal oversight, to surface this? What does it say that the institution tasked with "relief" had to be investigated by an outside government to learn who was on its payroll?
The donor governments that funded UNRWA for decades, the journalists who cited its casualty figures as gospel: do any of them owe the public an explanation now?
If these are the people running the schools, what is being built inside the next generation of Gaza's children, and who decided that was acceptable to fund?

“Netanyahu” today functions as a boogeyman. He is a hated figure on the world stage because he plays the role of the Jewish villain in the antizionist universe, not unlike the role Baron de Rothschild played in the antisemitic universe. He serves as a scapegoat and a figure of blame. References to “Netanyahu” are regularly invoked to justify and avoid discussion of the explosion of antizionist hate that followed October 7.
Rather than confronting the ideology itself, attention is displaced onto a single individual, as though the harassment of Jews, the normalization of antizionist hatred, and the global mobilization against Israel can all be explained by one man, which is irrational and nonsensical.
@mark_slapinski piers morgan has no idea what he's talking about. he hosts anti israel guests constantly and i guess he's lapping up their drivel. there is no ethnic cleansing in gaza. if there was, the population there would be much lower than it is. there's a war going on as i expect you know
@Spector37214958@clothedw_thesun good luck with that. are you heading the destruction of israel? don't answer that...wasn't a serious question. i think we're finished here.
@Dr_chimneys7@caitoz sorry. don't tend to read and listen to things from antisemites. you won't convince me of anything based on norman finklestein or shulamit aloni. there are plenty of others out there who know what they're talking about. have a good day.
@Dr_chimneys7@caitoz norman finklestein? he's your suggestion? sorry, not reading anything written by an antisemite. also, most jews are also zionists so being anti either of these things is connected.
@PaulCockshott@Zeev81309559 the gazans started attacking israel with missiles shortly after israel handed them the strip on a silver platter over 20 years ago. learn your history. not to mention years and years of ongoing terrorism by palestinians.
@neyikaybettik the movie takes place when the british mandate was in charge here. they called the area palestine. how about you get your facts straight before posting nonsense?
