http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/jan/09/gaza-palestinians-israel-evacuees-zeitoun Israel? War crimes? What a load of pro-Hamas bullshit. The UN has once again proved that it is a thoroughly anti-semitic organisation, which is determined to destroy the state of Israel. It is a proven fact that all the civillian deaths in Gaza so far have been the result of Hamas using human shields and there is no evidence otherwise. The UN also allows Hamas to use human shields.

That's when the UN was 100% taking orders from the US rather than 97.3% like now. _______________________________________________________________________ RecGroups : the community-oriented newsreader : www.recgroups.com

Hamas is 100% to blame for all the Palestinian deaths and anyone who says otherwise, such is the UN, is a dumb anti-semite and hell-bent on the destruction of the state of Israel. Why does the UN think we need an "investigation" into the civillian deaths when the Israeli army, who are clearly the most impartial body to launch such an organisation, have already proven beyond doubt that Israel has no culpability for any of the civillian dead in Gaza? The world is simply crazy and full of anti-semites - where the hell is the evidence that Israel is comitting war crimes? Israel has never done this in the history of its existence.

She has previously exposed the "Oil for Food" scam that Saddam used to get the UN to funnel money to him, ostensibly to benefit the average Iraqi, but in effect enabled him to build his mansions all over the country, and pay the Baathist thugs that kept his regime in power. We have much the same situation in Gaza with a UN operation, UNRWA, that has been going on for 60 years. http://www.forbes.com/opinions/2009/01/07/gaza-hamas-unrwa-oped-cx_cr_0108rosett.html Gaza Bedfellows UNRWA And Hamas Claudia Rosett, 01.08.09, 12:00 AM EST How they keep each other in business. Once upon a time, terrorists had to hide from the forces of the free world and filch their living on the sly. That's changing, thanks to long-running efforts by the United Nations, bankrolled most prominently by the U.S. In the current violence of Gaza, we are seeing the fruition of one of the most bizarre creations of modern diplomacy: a UN-supported welfare enclave for terrorists. Behind this lies a straightforward equation. Gaza, with its 1.5 million people, runs almost entirely on international handouts. The UN ranks it among the top per-capita aid recipients on the planet. And following the Israeli withdrawal in 2005, the Iranian-backed terrorist group Hamas began consolidating power in Gaza--first via elections in 2006, then via a bloody battle in June 2007, in which Hamas drove out the rival Palestinian group Fatah and seized all power in the enclave. Since then, Hamas has been running Gaza as a territory reduced to basically two industries: aid and terrorism. Pivotal to this arrangement is one of the UN's oldest and most oddly configured agencies: the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, or UNRWA. Set up in 1949 with a temporary, three-year mandate to provide aid and jobs for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA has survived for almost 60 years, expanding its scope, budget and influence by extending refugee status to descendants of its beneficiaries. Normal refugee aid tends to focus on finding ways to resettle displaced people and integrate them back into normal, productive lives. UNRWA, by contrast, provides the main framework for ensuring that the official population of Palestinian refugees remains a swelling source of misery and mayhem--both for their neighbors and for the Palestinians themselves. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- From an original refugee population listed by UNRWA as some 900,000 in 1950, UNRWA now provides for a Palestinian "refugee" clientele of more than 4.6 million. They are spread throughout camps--which physically look more like squalid towns--in Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, the West Bank and Gaza. Into this system flows an annual UNRWA budget now well above $400 million per year, doled out variously in the form of cash, goods, medical care, schooling, job-training programs and so forth. To handle these operations, UNRWA employs more than 24,000 staffers. That's more than any other UN agency, including the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, or UNHCR, which with some 6,300 staffers--about one-quarter the manpower of UNRWA--is responsible for all other refugees worldwide, totaling more than 11 million. At UNRWA, more than 99% of the staff are local Palestinians. They sit at the many local levers of the UNRWA distribution machinery, which under UNRWA policy takes on the coloration of and yields to the policies of host governments--as UNRWA officials explained to U.S. lawmakers who some years ago challenged the use of anti-Israeli textbooks in UNRWA schools. In today's terrorist-run Gaza, such an approach carries exactly the kind of deadly implications now playing out--while UNRWA and other UN officials call for an end to the violence. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- UNRWA's interests in Gaza are by now so entwined and, in many ways, so aligned with Hamas' interests that it is often hard to tell them apart. And, as UNRWA officials have aired their views and demands from the UN stage, handouts for Gaza have been rolling in from all sides--some via UNRWA, some through other channels. This goes way beyond Israel allowing hundreds of aid trucks into Gaza, even as the Israeli military is battling to shut down the rocket launchers and destroy the arms-smuggling tunnels and weapons caches of Hamas. Support in cash and kind, in dollars and tons, has been pledged by donors ranging from Iran to Japan to the European Union to the Arab Gulf States to the U.S. (already the top donor to UNRWA, with $148 million in contributions last year, and now promising an immediate $5 million in response to UNRWA's latest flash appeal for Gaza, plus another $80 million for the agency to spread around in places including Gaza). Plane-loads of relief, both in goods and services, have been announced by donors ranging from Russia to Libya to Sudan. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- This past September, Democratic Rep. Steve Rothman, with a bipartisan group of five co-sponsors, submitted a concurrent resolution noting that "UNRWA has employed staffers affiliated with terrorism." The resolution cited specific examples of UNRWA ambulance and schools having been used to abet terrorism and mentioned a number of figures, including Awad al-Qiq, headmaster of an UNRWA school in Gaza, "who also led Islamic Jihad's engineering unit that built bombs and Qassam rockets." However humane the intent of UNRWA officials, they have become de facto enablers of Hamas' terrorist fiefdom in Gaza. In pushing for an ever-bigger dole and in using the UN stage as a megaphone to help elicit sympathy, drum up funds, denounce Israel and drape in UN baby blue the interests and demands of the Iranian-backed terrorists of Hamas, they do a terrible disservice not only to the cause of world peace, but to the prospects of the Palestinians themselves for forsaking terror and building better lives. -------------------- Claudia Rosett, a journalist-in-residence with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, writes a weekly column on foreign affairs for Forbes.com.

The Palestinians should take responsibility for themselves (which they never will) and make Hamas stop this practice, or they will risk civilian casualties. AndyNYC
