UNRWA has long been a political pawn, and if they can’t clean house of Hamas operatives, then maybe Israel has a point. National security should come first. And by the way, how are we funding any organization with direct ties to Hamas? For a government that’s so big on ‘accountability,’ the U.S. sure has a soft spot for this agency.
Here are the top political news stories for today.
So, we’re blaming refugees for daring to need help? Israel banning UNRWA just means it’s one step closer to zero oversight and zero compassion. Keep ignoring the humanitarian fallout here, but when does this end? When every Palestinian has been forcibly displaced?
