The United Nations’ Palestinian refugee agency has spent more than nine months denying its employees work alongside Hamas, dismissing these claims as Israeli propaganda. On Monday, the organization fired nine staffers for participating in the Oct. 7 terror spree that killed more than 1,200 Israelis.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) announced that it will fire a handful of its employees based in the Gaza Strip for working alongside Hamas as it slaughtered Israeli civilians. “For nine people,” UNRWA spokesman Farhan Haq said, “the evidence was sufficient to conclude that they may have been involved in the seventh of October attacks.”
This is code for the evidence was so strong, we could no longer pretend it wasn’t.
It is shameful that NZ has resumed funding UNRWA.

The United Nations is the enemy of independent sovereign nations, and like the parasite that it is, only survives via funding from the taxpayers of those nations whose governments have succumbed and succeeded its sovereignty.
“The Oct. 7 terror spree that killed more than 1,200 Israelis”, writes Mr Farrar, who fails to mention that the majority of victims were killed by IDF gunships and tanks.
As Hamas raided southern Israel on October 7 last year, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) activated the “Hannibal Directive”, an operational doctrine of using maximum force to ensure no soldiers are captured, even if it means sacrificing military and civilian lives, an investigation by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz has found.
Just the nine people, what about their bosses, and their bosses, their ignorance of what was going on is to be excused. Then again, maybe they weren't all ignorant.
While Palestinians are being straved and deprived of basic essentials (the trucks are being 'inspected') UNRWA is the only option unless you think more Palestinians civilian deaths are a better option. I presume you don't. UNRWA has 1000's of staff and this is absolutely not a reason to defund them. That would be like the US not sending Israel bombs because some politicians regulary call for the death of all Palestinians.
