...Al-Mughrabi grossly underreports the number of UNRWA employees that Israel has said belong to terror organizations, erring: 'Israeli officials cited the involvement of a handful of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees’ thousands of staffers in the Oct. 7, 2023 attack and a few staffers’ membership in Hamas and other armed groups.'
“Few” means a small number. And yet Israel has accused more than 2000 UNRWA staffers of belonging to terror organizations.
“Few” is not a fair stand in for more than 90 reported fatalities, and Reuters rightly cited “dozens” in that case. All the more so, “few” is a false representation of more than 450 reported UNRWA staffers who moonlight as military operatives. With respect to more than 2000, which is how many UNRWA staffers Israel has accused of possessing membership in Hamas or other terror organizations (either as military operatives or otherwise), “few” is a farce.
As Reuters itself reported in March, Israel cited more than 450 UNRWA employees moonlighting for Hamas as military operatives (“Israel says over 450 UN aid agency workers in Gaza are ‘military operatives“). Reuters reported at the time: 'Israel’s military said on Monday that the U.N. aid agency UNRWA in Gaza employed over 450 “military operatives” from Hamas and other armed groups, and that Israel has shared this intelligence with the United Nations. . . .
“Over 450 UNRWA employees are military operatives in terror groups in Gaza. Over 450. This is no mere coincidence. This is systematic. There is no claiming ‘We did not know’,” military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari told reporters in a briefing.
“We sent the information that I am sharing now, as well as further intelligence, to our international partners, including the U.N.,” he said.'
How many UNRWA in Gaza work for Hamas? ALL OF THEM. They are paid by Hamas. Perhaps some only a little, but most a lot, depending on their jobs.
This is the perfect reason, time, and place to get the US out of the UN.
Make them FIRE the terrorists and then get them to leave the US.
The UN is basically an anti Semitic anti Israel organization. Logic tells one that they put UN workers in Gaza that share the philosophy.
A five hour wait to vote in a conservative district in Pennsylvania is not minor. It is planned to deny you the vote.
