Don’t know why Gaza needs a whole agency and the rest of the world another.Correct me if I’m wrong but last I heard there were 6 people in their office and around 30,000 people employed in the field. Doesn’t seem like a good oversight setup.
UNWRA needs to go. Never should have existed. Massive hindrance to long term peace and stability. Cheers to Switzerland for becoming the most recent to stop funding this week.
I think UNRWA needs to be shut down because it’s become a poisoned well and just might be time to dig a new well. let go all the current staff and create a new org with new employees with heavy background checks so what happened with UNWRA doesn’t happen to the new org.
part of the problem is groups like hamas were easily able to take control of these org and use them for evil purposes. so might be time to change things up with a more tightly wound and strict organization that won’t have the issues UNRWA did
Not “after school bombing.” After Israel bombed the freaking school. Because they are a genocidal manaical fascist ethnostate hell bent on eradicating Palestinians and colonizing Palestine. At this point, I don’t even understand how we can all sit here and be complicit in this insanity and not condemn Netanyahu. Dude is a Hitler wannabe doing Hitler things, and everyone is smiling and nodding and sending hin more bombs. Like what the actual fuck is this? Gaza looks like the bombed out background from The Pianist. What the fuck are we doing here? How far up everyone’s ass is AIPAC’s fist?
Edit: And before anyone, “BUT KHHHAMAS”es me, let me ask you this? Would you bomb a freaking school with kids in it to stop a school shooter? No? So we agree this is insane, right?
Whether or not you agree with Israel’s claims against UNRWA, what is not in dispute is the agency’s utter failure of its mission over the last 70 years. It has not moved the needle in helping Palestinians resettle or move toward self determination. At best it’s been no better than any other aid organization and at worst it’s been entirely corrupted by authoritarian agents of the people the purport to help.

Israel has yet to release [sufficient evidence](https://www.npr.org/2024/04/23/1246613547/unrwa-israel-hamas-gaza-war) to prove their accusations against UNRWA are true. The fact that so many nations pulled their funding over a false accusation is just downright shameful.
