Israel's UNRWA Ban Is Long Overdue
(National Interest) Carrie Filipetti - Failing to hold UNRWA accountable for its actions, including its support for the brutal slaughter of Israeli civilians carried out by some UNRWA officials, puts global humanitarian aid at risk. Accordingly, the U.S. should follow Israel's lead and defund UNRWA, the recipient of $7.3 billion in taxpayer-funded contributions since it was founded. For its entire existence, UNRWA's antisemitic curriculum has brainwashed generations of Palestinians, encouraged a perpetual Palestinian victimhood mentality, and manipulated the international community into funding its perverse ideology.
