We need to stop propping up the Palestinians
disenchantedcitizen
by disenchantedcitizen  3-6-2009    6
 The Palestinians have perfected the ‘Poverty for Pay’ scheme. They hold the record for the ‘top per-capita aid recipients in the history of the planet’. They also hold the distinction of having received aid for more years than any other country. Over the past 60 years, Palestinian refugees have grown into permanent recipients of United Nations Welfare. Instead of enjoying a fairly comfortable standard of living with decent homes, thriving businesses, quality schools and maybe a little money in the bank, all the billions have resulted in abject poverty. They need to lessons in how to manage their money. The Palestinian Authority and Hamas are not the only beneficiaries of Palestinian poverty. UNRWA, which receives public funds but permits no outside audit, thrives and grows only when Palestinians are needy victims.

Officials: Hamas Seizes UN Food Aid in Gaza
merrie
by merrie  2-4-2009    1
 You’d think drawing fire on a UN compound by using it as a firebase would be a problem. But I guess, as UNRWA flack Gunness’ remarks above suggest, everyone knows subjecting women and children to return fire just makes Israelis look bad. But being ripped off at gunpoint by your terrorist pals could hurt the bottomline. JERUSALEM (AP) — Armed Hamas police broke into a Gaza warehouse packed with U.N. humanitarian supplies and seized thousands of blankets and food packages, officials said Wednesday. It was a rare public clash between the international agency that feeds much of the territory and the militant group that rules it. And the incident highlighted difficulties facing donors seeking to bypass Hamas while helping Gazans survive and rebuild after Israel's punishing military operation. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5ioi_0jtO9RjMwPNRoXNCndRPRq3gD9651K2O0

Account Of Israeli Attack Doesn't Hold Up To Scrutiny
merrie
by merrie  2-3-2009    3
 JABALYA, GAZA STRIP — Most people remember the headlines: Massacre Of Innocents As UN School Is Shelled; Israeli Strike Kills Dozens At UN School. There was just one problem: The story, as etched in people's minds, was not quite accurate. Physical evidence and interviews with several eyewitnesses, including a teacher who was in the schoolyard at the time of the shelling, make it clear: While a few people were injured from shrapnel landing inside the white-and-blue-walled UNRWA compound, no one in the compound was killed. The 43 people who died in the incident were all outside, on the street, where all three mortar shells landed. Stories of one or more shells landing inside the schoolyard were inaccurate. While the killing of 43 civilians on the street may itself be grounds for investigation, it falls short of the act of shooting into a schoolyard crowded with refuge-seekers. The teacher who was in the compound at the time of the shelling says he heard three loud blasts,

 Ging is John Ging, head of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in Gaza. This really shouldn't come as any surprise. Just as the invasion of Iraq has actually increased the number of terrorists in the world, so Israel's overreaction has done the same. So we've got two examples of terrorism being treated as a military problem, with both of them failing spectacularly.

Ban Ki-moon WHITEWASHED for Criticism of Israel in Gaza!!!
ratcatcher2
by ratcatcher2  1-20-2009    1
 Ban Ki-moon, UN General-Secretary, stood in the still burning UNRWA building shelled deliberately by Israel, earlier today I saw this man in near tears live on (non-Western) TV today. It's is no surprise that NONE of compliant Zionist bent Western media are not even reporting the event as having happened. There is not ONE photograph of his presence. This event has been whitewashed from history because he was highly critical of Israel for its excessive use of force. This (forced) visit to Zionist places of pilgrimage - mandatory for all visiting dignitaries, especially to obtain Israeli permission to visit Gaza - will be splashed as usual all over Western rags, except one Swiss and one Australian paper! There will be ample photos when he is brought to the slum city of Sderot for the deprived, for new Israeli citizens and for the collaborators.

 continues (full through link): Mr Gunness used unusually strong language. But the call came at the culmination not only of a rising civilian death toll but also a series of attacks on UN installations and, in some cases, the people who were under the UN's care at the time. The most lethal of these was an earlier shelling in which 43 internally displaced Gazans, sheltering in the Fakhura UNRWA school in Jabalya, were killed on 6 January.

 Haaretz has also learned that one of the army's methods for evacuating a home is to fire a missile toward its upper level. That is how B.'s house in Sajaiyeh was destroyed. It was bombed just a few minutes after a missile struck and 40 shell-shocked family members walked out of the house .The IDF has also forced at least 40,000 people to leave their homes in agricultural and border areas. In Rafah, most of the 20,000 people removed from their homes were lodging with relatives and not in UNRWA facilities

 As director of operations for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, Ging has seen the impact of Israel’s bunker-busters, smart bombs and artillery, mortars, tanks and white phosphorus shells on living flesh and the jerry-built concrete constructions where Gazans dwell and work. As director of operations for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Ging has seen the impact of Israel’s bunker-busters, smart bombs and artillery, mortars, tanks and white phosphorus shells on living flesh and the jerry-built concrete constructions where Gazans dwell and work. On Thursday morning, UNRWA’s headquarters compound at the centre of Gaza City took direct hits from Israeli rounds, which set fire to its warehouse and wounded three staff. Like everyone else in Gaza, Ging cannot escape the trauma of war. He feels the pangs of hunger of Palestinian families who have not received UNRWA rations since the war began on December 27th, who cannot leave their home

Israel Uses White Phosphorous on UN Compound

Gaza's 9/11--Israeli Terrorism Against Civilian Population
blueridge
by blueridge  1-16-2009    1
 Here is the present death and injured count and Democracy Now reported today that 1/3 of the deaths so far are women and children. A majority of the dead are civilians, and many non-combatant government employees and police were killed when Israel shelled and bombed the government facilities. UN buildings and schools have also been hit. Most of Gaza is without electricity or drinking water! Terrorism is defined as violence against a civilian population for political ends and purposes, which is precisely what Israel is doing. Time to call this what it is...as Israeli professor Avi Schlaim of Oxford has already termed it, "State Terrorism" by Israel. This then is Gaza's 9/11, acknowledged or not!

U.N. Agency Runs School That Employed Islamic Jihad Members
merrie

 Lawmakers on Capitol Hill say they are also concerned that terrorist propaganda is being taught in UNRWA schools. A notebook captured by Israeli officials at the UNRWA school in the Kalandia refugee camp several years ago glorified homicide bombers and other terrorists. Called "The Star Team," it profiled so-called "martyrs," Palestinians who had died either in homicide bombings or during armed struggle with Israel. On the book's back cover was printed the UNRWA emblem, as well as a photo of a masked gunman taking aim while on one knee. Though he cautioned that estimates are tricky because the identity of an attacker is not always made public, Halevi estimated that over 60 percent of homicide bombers were educated in UNRWA schools. By comparison, roughly 25-30 percent of Palestinian students in the West Bank, the origin of almost all homicide bombers since the start of the intifada in 2000, attend UNRWA schools, according to the agency's figures.

True Evil Exposed: The Gaza School Incidents
merrie
by merrie  1-7-2009    5
 An AP report notes that Hamas fired on Israeli forces from the school and the Israeli return fire set off secondary explosions - meaning that Hamas used the school as a weapons depot: An Israeli official says Palestinian militants fired on Israeli soldiers from the courtyard of a U.N. school where dozens of people died in fiery explosions. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he said the army is still drafting the country's official response to the incident. The Israeli official said "hostile fire" was directed at the soldiers from within the school. He said soldiers returned fire and multiple explosions went off, presumably emanating from munitions stored there.
