Lazzarini claims 'dis-information campaign' against UNRWA putting agency staff at risk
Jerusalem Post ^ | NOVEMBER 26,2024 | SAM HALPERN

“The spread of #disinformation against @UNRWA is meant to create chaos & divert attention from the political aims to dismantle the Agency,” Lazzarini wrote.

UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini criticized a “spread of disinformation” that he said was putting the Palestinian refugee agency's staff at risk, in a Monday post to X/Twitter.

“The spread of #disinformation against @UNRWA is meant to create chaos & divert attention from the political aims to dismantle the Agency,” Lazzarini wrote.

UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, has come under intensified scrutiny since the start of the Israel-Hamas War in October of last year, and numerous members of the agency’s staff have been exposed as members of Hamas.

This month, UN Watch exposé reported that former UNRWA commissioner-general Pierre Krahenbuhl assured leaders of designated Palestinian terrorist organizations that “we are one” and “no one can separate us” during his term.

UNRWA staff and terror ties Also this month, an investigation by the Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education identified twelve UNRWA school principals and deputy principals as active members of terrorist organizations, with many holding commanding positions in terror units.

Lazzarini and UNRWA have denied knowledge of Hamas connections among their staff. After Israel eliminated Hamas official Fateh Sherif Abu el-Amin, the head of Lebanon’s UNRWA teachers' association, in a September airstrike in the country, Lazzarini denied knowledge of el-Amin’s Hamas involvement.

Lazzarini’s Monday post further stated, “The spread of false information continues unabated, causing harm to Palestine Refugees by undermining the only UN agency dedicated to providing humanitarian assistance, education, + primary health care to one of the most vulnerable communities in the region."

“UNRWA is the international community’s instrument put in place to address the plight of Palestine refugees in the absence of an alternative & until a just political solution is found.”

The UNRWA chief added that the alleged disinformation campaign was putting the lives of UNRWA staff in the West Bank and Gaza at risk.

UNWRA...... Unifil....... De facto Terror institutions that are part and parcel of the United Nations.

If not within the first week, then certainly within the first month, President Trump should cease all payments to all UN organizations. When the hue and cry and lamentations begin he must insist that several Organizations and especially UNWRA and Unifil be abolished.

Until they are dismantled, no money for anything

The author says that this is disinformation? UNIFIL and UNRWA agents have been caught embedded with the terrorists, and supplied weapons etc., and have been killed with them.

An old friend of mine that owned a large food processing plant sold tomatoes under his own name on the label. They were “Furman’s, until he found they sold far better as Furmano’s Tomatoes.

UNWRA has been a cesspool since the late 1950’s.

UNWRA represents everything that is wrong, demented and wasteful about the UN.

UNWRA = United Nations Warfare Repository for Arabs

This organization must be dismantled and all those who were terrorists on the UN payroll exposed, publicized and hung. The problem is, is that 85% of them were supporters and abettors to any source willing to kill Jews. They proved this all on the 7th of October 2023.

Way back in the 1950’s David Ben Gurion, then Prime Minister of Israel called the UN, the DN or Do Nothing.
Unfortunately they are not DN but rather SKJs, (Support Killing Jews).

Disinformation would be saying that the UNWRA didn’t support terrorism.

An old, but true adage :"You are known by the company that you keep"
also
"Birds of a feather flock together "
The U.S. should defund the United Nations and the UNRWA
and get the hel* out of the UN
The United Nations selectively supports sovereign nation invasion, except when they don't.

There was once a man Lazzarini
Who hired Hamas in bikini,
They smuggled and died,
Lazzarini was fried,
Now UNRWA’s not worth even a weenie.

UNRWA: Taking Ordnance to Hamas undercover so they can enter Israel and burn babies alive?

Send them all straight to hell and the entire UN along with them.

In today’s world, whenever a communication comes out that opposes your policy it is misinformation or disinformation.
