EU: Israel Lied. We Resume Funding to UNRWA

Israeli lies on UNRWA role in Oct. 7 attack exposed: European Union resumes funding

The European Union will resume funding for UNRWA (United Nations Relief Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees) as reports from various agencies show that the Israeli government lied when it said UNRWA employees took part in the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks in Israel. The underlying motivation behind the lies is to discredit UNRWA, stop its funding, and abandon to their fate the millions of Palestinians who were expelled by Israel in its repeated ethnic cleansing campaigns of 1948, 1967, and to the present time.

A disqualification of UNRWA means that the status of the Palestinian refugees will cease to be that of “refugees”, thus denying their Right of Return to occupied Palestine. A very convenient solution for Israel which is doing all it can – barbarism and lies for the most part – to complete its “Final Solution” to the Palestinian question, as Zionists continue to imitate the Germans who sought a “Final Solution” to the Jewish question.

Without acknowledging its error in believing the Zionist lies, and without calling out Israel for its lies and attempts at decimating the Palestinian refugee population, the EU Commission said in a press release on Friday, "Following the exchange of letters with UNRWA confirming its commitments, the commission will proceed disburse a first tranche of EUR 50 million out of the EUR 82 million foreseen for UNRWA for 2024."

Like Pavlovian dogs that had been trained to believe every Zionist lie ever since 1947, the Holocaust-guilt-laden Europeans start drooling profusely upon hearing any Zionist claim. They then take action against the Palestinians without verifying first if the Israeli claims are justified.

In January, the Israeli government said that 12 UNRWA employees were involved in the Oct. 7 attacks inside Israel. The accusations prompted the Pavlovian Zionist-trained idiots in the governments of many contributing states, including the US, to halt aid to UNRWA.

"We stand by the Palestinian people in Gaza and elsewhere in the region. Innocent Palestinians should not have to pay the price for the crimes of terrorist group Hamas," said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in an unconvincing statement laced with crocodile tears. "They face terrible conditions putting their lives at risk because of lack of access to sufficient food and other basic needs. That is why we are reinforcing our support to them this year by a further EUR 68 million," von der Leyen said. Not a word about Israel’s lies. Not a word of praise for UNRWA.

Earlier this month, UNRWA commissioner general Phillipe Lazzarini said the employees in question had been fired without evidence and that the claims were under investigation. "If the investigation tells us that this was wrong, in that case at the U.N. we will take a decision for how to properly compensate them," Lazzarini said.

Multiple news reports, including from the Daily Beast and Britain's Channel 4, found that Israeli reports alleging UNRWA staff involvement in the Oct. 7 attacks were “unsubstantiated”, a nice polite way of saying that Israel is lying and leveling slanderous accusations against UNRWA as part of its ethnic cleansing campaign against the Palestinian people.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the pro-Israel-biased U.S. intelligence community assessed the claims as “plausible with low confidence," meaning US intelligence knows the Israelis are lying but can’t say no to the Zionist criminals. The West is on its knees before Israel: Like a good soldier, the West first executes the Zionist orders and complains, if ever, later.

Sources told the Wall Street Journal that a U.S. intelligence report contained passages referring to the potential of Israeli government bias affecting the validity of the claims. The United Nations subsequently has cast doubt on the allegations, saying they were presented without evidence. "UNRWA has not received any information, let alone any evidence, from the Israeli Authorities or any other member state about the ... claim," the UN said in a press release.

"The names of the 12 individuals against whom allegations were made were all shared multiple times with Israel and other member states," the United Nations said. "Prior to January 2024, UNRWA did not receive any indication from the relevant authorities of any involvement of its staff in armed or militant groups."

In February, U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres also reaffirmed his commitment to UNRWA, calling the organization "the backbone of all humanitarian response in Gaza." Meanwhile, more than 30,000 people have been killed by the Israeli military and many more stand to die as a result of a deliberate Israeli policy of causing starvation and disease among the Palestinian refugee population.

No one expects the Zionist-enslaved US government to be so bold as to oppose the Zionists and declare their claims as pure lies. 

If Israel represents the West in the Near East, as the Israeli savages constantly claim, then the West is complicit with Israel in the barbarity inflicted on the native indigenous Arab population of Palestine.
