(JNS-Israel Hayom) Jonathan S. Tobin - The notion put forward that the people who took part in the terror attacks in Israel on Oct. 7 are just a tiny minority of UNRWA's 13,000 employees is not to be taken seriously. For years, it has been well known that UNRWA facilities, including schools, have been used by Hamas to store weapons or otherwise assist terrorists. Its education programs are as bad as those run by Hamas or the Palestinian Authority when it comes to indoctrinating young Palestinians in hatred for Israel and the Jews. UNRWA is dedicated to perpetuating the conflict with Israel, while every other refugee agency in the world focuses on resettling those displaced by war in some safe place where they can make a new start in life. The only theoretical hope for peace between Israel and the Palestinians must start with the abolition of institutions that not only provide assistance and employment to terrorists, but have as their purpose the perpetuation of a futile quest to destroy the one Jewish state on the planet. Up to 60 million people were displaced during and immediately after the Second World War. Some 800,000 Jews either fled or were forced to flee their homes in the Arab and Muslim world where they had lived for centuries. The Jewish refugees were resettled largely in Israel, where they faced hardships in what was then a very poor and embattled country. Unlike every other refugee population, the Palestinian Arabs were not resettled. They were kept in camps throughout the Middle East with the largest concentration in Gaza. They were prevented from finding new homes in Arab and Muslim countries, where they spoke the language and shared a common culture. Instead, they were kept in place to wait for the day when they could "go home" to their former villages in what was now Israel. Their leaders and the rest of the Arab world opposed their resettlement, doing all they could to prevent it. The agency that enabled this policy to continue for generations was UNRWA, which exists solely to ensure that Palestinian refugees are never resettled.2024-02-02 00:00:00Full Article
