How Disgraceful Anti-Israel NGOs Set UN Agenda


(National Post-Canada) Barbara Kay - A full-page ad in the Sept. 27 issue of the Globe and Mail, sponsored by the NGO Medecins sans Frontieres/Doctors without Borders (MSF), tots up the many calamities Gazans have endured in the two-year Hamas-Israel war. The ad speaks of civilian hunger, but not of plentiful aid stolen by Hamas. It does not mention Hamas at all - or the hostages taken, or any other cause of the war. And hanging overall the false accusation that it is Israel that is committing genocide. Genocide requires intent, demonstrably not the case in Israel's defensive war, but which perfectly describes the motivation behind Hamas's rabid pogrom on October 7. Those reading the ad won't register the absence of objectivity of today's MSF as a politicized, biased and untrustworthy source of information. MSF has not only lied about proven Hamas entrenchment in Gaza hospitals ("we have seen no evidence that the hospital buildings or the compounds are being used by Hamas as a military base") but admitted - following Oct. 7, mind - giving funding to the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health. "Non-governmental organizations" are supposed to be made up of altruistic civic-minded groups that provide expertise independent of the narrow self-interest of political bodies. It is on that ground that they are invited to participate in UN activities. But now retired, anti-democratic Marxist activists have executed the equivalent of a corporate hostile takeover of now corrupted NGOs like MSF, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty. The superpower NGOs are accountable to nobody, yet in large part they are setting the UN's agenda on Israel. Then, when the UN executes the agenda they have promoted, they endorse it as if it were a coincidence.
