Israel Blames UN for Gaza Aid Crisis
(Washington Post) Annabelle Timsit - Israel blamed the UN on Wednesday for the lack of humanitarian aid being distributed inside Gaza. Israeli prime minister's office spokesman David Mencer said Wednesday that UN agencies including UNRWA, the agency for Palestinian refugees, are responsible for the bottlenecks, and claimed that "non-UN aid agencies have been able to deliver aid successfully....Stop blaming Israel. We must stop this halo around the United Nations of their being a force for good. Unfortunately, in many, many cases, they are not a force for good."
