(Jerusalem Post) Zvika Klein - On Monday, Israel's Knesset voting 92-10 to finally bar UNRWA from operating within its territories. For many Israelis, this vote represents a long-overdue consensus that the agency has evolved into something far removed from its original humanitarian mandate. What the world often misses is that for Israel, UNRWA represents not just an ineffective aid organization but a security liability that is complicit in perpetuating the conflict. UNRWA grants refugee status to Palestinians generationally, allowing it to pass from parent to child, creating a growing population without a permanent solution. This unique policy perpetuates a sense of refugeehood that is more about feeding political grievances. For Israel, this approach creates an ever-expanding pool of individuals with a deeply politicized identity that sees Israel as the enemy. Israel's decision to ban UNRWA reflects a belief that real peace requires breaking free from structures that breed hostility and dependency. 2024-10-29 00:00:00Full Article
