United Nations: A Reliable Ally for Terror and Oppression

For the third time since the Israeli operation in Gaza began, rockets and terrorist instruments were discovered inside a United Nations building. After the first discovery, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) gave the rockets to the relevant local authorities—Hamas. The second time, UNRWA immediately evacuated all staff from the premises, and thus was “unable to confirm the precise number of rockets.” Hamas was then allowed to retake possession of the rockets.
Last week, the absurdity continued; three IDF soldiers were killed by an explosion from a booby-trapped UNRWA building. According to IDF’s Gaza Division Commander Brig. Gen. Micky Edelstein, “They [Hamas] blow [up] the UNRWA clinic on our troops.” This was a health clinic, linked to a series of terror tunnels leading into Israel’s sovereign territory.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. The phrase stops there, but UNRWA hasn’t. It is thoroughly inconceivable that UNRWA officials did not know about large stores of rockets filling rooms in their schools and clinics. But even if one were to make the intellectual leap to give them the benefit of the doubt, there is no way they didn’t notice terrorists installing bombs in their walls. Drills make noise, but unfortunately the world didn’t.
