The Useless U.N.

Multiple countries around the world, including the United States, have temporarily cut off funding to a leading U.N. relief agency (UNRWA) that supposedly provides assistance to Palestinian refugees.

They took this action after reports emerged that UNRWA employed at least a dozen Hamas operatives who participated in the October 7^th massacre. Of those 12 terrorists, seven were school teachers.

We have known for years that UNRWA was hopelessly corrupt and biased against Israel. That’s why Donald Trump cut off all UNRWA funding in 2018.

Joe Biden, in his infinite wisdom, chose to restore funding to the radical organization, just as he chose to restore funding to Iran after Trump spent years tightening sanctions on the radical regime.

By the way, Donald Trump also put the Iranian-backed Houthis on the list of foreign terrorist organizations. But Biden took them off, only to put them back on after they started attacking Israel and our ships. (Are you seeing a pattern here?!)

But the situation at UNRWA is a lot worse than just a dozen “bad apples.”

According to the Wall Street Journal, there are intelligence estimates indicating that around 1,200 UNRWA employees in Gaza “have links to Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad,” while many other UNRWA employees “have close relatives who belong to the Islamist militant groups.”

But that’s not stopping far-left, anti-Israel progressives, like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, from demanding that UNRWA funding be immediately restored.
