The UN's War on Israel
(Wall Street Journal) Editorial - On Friday, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) issued a preliminary ruling in South Africa's case against Israel that managed to be both outrageous and meaningless. At the same time, its special forever-refugee agency for the Palestinians, UNRWA, had to fire staff accused of involvement in Hamas' Oct. 7 massacre. UNRWA has kept Palestinians in permanent refugee camps, which have become terrorist-incubators with third- and fourth-generation refugees who are educated to expect a victorious return to take over Israel. The UN agency for all other refugees helps them build new lives. UNRWA alone has a mandate to perpetuate refugee status that freezes a conflict in place. Gaza will never be a peaceful refuge as long as its friends at the UN keep using it for anti-Israel purposes. UNRWA as it currently works doesn't deserve U.S. support.
