UNRWA chief 'shocked' at countries stopping agency's funding
[Ynet] The Commissioner General of UNRWA, Philippe Lazzarini, criticized on Saturday the decision of the U.S., Germany, Great Britain and other countries to halt funds to the U.N agency for Palestinian refugees. Lazzarini said that the cessation of funding is "shocking", and warned that it threatens the continuation of humanitarian activities in the region, especially in Gaza. He called on the countries to reconsider their decision.

#6 the enemies of civilization are the ones comitting crimes against humanity. As contemptuous as the UN is, they're not nearly at this level. If this were anywhere else, we would be leading airstrikes against the genocidaires' capital until they stopped. See: Libya. We did that there and it worked.

#7 Israel is already sending airstrikes against those anti-civilization wannabe genocidaires, Hamas, et al., in their capitol in Gaza City and everywhere else in the Gaza Strip that they huddle and plot. Also tanks, infantry, special forces, and trauma specialists for the hostages, should any more living ones be found.

#11 As all "organizations" eventually move to the left, even organizations, be they businesses, charities, think tanks or foundations, maybe even sports leagues, need to be regularly sunsetted.

#16 It occurred to me, a lot of the whining is that they all thought they'd get a ceasefire after 4 weeks, and that wing of the offensive failed.
