Why Is the UN So Afraid of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation?


(X) Eitan Fischberger - UNRWA, the agency that's run Gaza's aid-state for decades, is the template for how other relief agencies can launder Western taxpayer money under the guise of humanitarianism. It is a fact that UNRWA employees have engaged in terrorism. It is a fact that UNRWA has cultivated a symbiotic relationship with Hamas, which weaponizes the aid system to sustain its rule. Gaza has been a welfare client of the UN for decades, not because of Israel - which fully withdrew in 2005 - but because UNRWA needs a crisis to justify its existence. Gazans have become the ultimate victim population because, in the halls of the UN, anything is permitted as long as it can be used as a weapon to bludgeon the Jewish state. Why would the UN care if another group hands out food in Gaza? Why would it care that American veterans are protecting aid convoys and keeping supplies out of Hamas's hands? Because the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's (GHF) success threatens the UN's model. With the GHF there is no more plausible deniability, no more working through partners who happen to be terrorists. The UN's talking heads are smearing GHF - not for doing harm, but for committing the unpardonable sin of delivering food without collaborating with terrorists. Make no mistake: the UN's aid mechanisms have prolonged this war, increased suffering, and entrenched Hamas rule. The source of Gaza's suffering is not the GHF.
