UN Blasted for Giving Rockets Found in Gaza School to Hamas
The New American ^ | July 25, 2014 | Alex Newman

Posted on 07/26/2014 4:39:03 PM PDT by detective

The United Nations is facing tough criticism and allegations of major misconduct after caches of rockets were found hidden at a UN-run school in Gaza before reportedly being handed to terrorists, sparking a global scandal that threatens to further undermine the credibility of the dictator-dominated world body. Making matters even worse, after being found, the U.S. taxpayer-funded UN “Relief and Works Agency” (UNRWA) handed the deadly rockets over to Hamas, the terrorist group that runs Gaza with an iron fist and hides behind Arab civilians while firing thousands of rockets into Israel. Now the global outfit is complaining that its “schools” were hit by Israeli forces.

The first batch of deadly weapons were uncovered at the UNRWA-run Gaza “school” last week. Another, separate cache of rockets was found at a UN school on Tuesday of this week, too. In a statement, the UN agency claimed they were found “in the course of the regular inspection of its premises.” Instead of handing the rockets over to Israeli authorities, however, the outfit admittedly handed them to Hamas for “disposal,” according to news reports. Critics promptly cried foul, noting that Hamas would almost certainly launch the weapons at Israel. Thousands of rockets have already been fired at civilian targets in Israel amid the latest round of fighting.

This would be funny if it wasn't so sad. The UN "Relief and Works Agency" funded almost entirely by U.S. taxpayers was using its school to launch rockets into Israel. When they were caught, they gave the remaining rockets to Hamas. This happened twice last week.

Our tax dollars are not only funding ISIS they are funding Hamas.

And the UN is putting on the SGT. Schultz act("I see nothing") while helping to fund and facilitate Hamas.

And the Obama Administration is promising millions in U.S. taxpayer funded "humanitarian" aid for Gaza.

What percent of this so called "humanitarian" aid do you think will end up funding Hamas?

So the UN is a terrorist sympathizer now. We know the UN helped Hizbolla before. The UN should be disbanded

And U.S. taxpayers sent 47 million directly to Gaza to fund more bombs coming to Israel.

Valerie Jarret is certainly paying back her friends on our dime.

They were rockets for class/school science projects. No, really.

Par for the course for the UN. Just as the league of nations failed, so will the UN fail and has always been a failure. It only exists to further its own existence and that of corrupt regimes to extract money at our expense. It is absolutely worthless, just giving cover and respectability to Communist regimes and their ilk.

This is considered ‘news’? Back when Hezbollah was in Southern Lebanon, there were UN ‘Peacekeepers’ in a buffer zone between Lebanon and Israel. Hezbollah constructed rocket launchers right next to the UN facilities. UN did absolutely nothing. The UN is definitely united in its hatred of all that is good and just in the world.

Is there any question any more which side the UN is on? They certainly are not on the side of peace and civilization.

In Reagans world that would be the last Wall to crush,
to end the UN farce once and for all.

Well, they were Hamas' rockets. And to think, we supply about a third of UNWRA's funding.
