Hamas so Corrupt now Even the UN is Starting to do Something

UNRWA informed the IDF on Friday it is suspending humanitarian aid deliveries to the Gaza Strip after Hamas stole supplies it had transferred to the Palestinian territory.

In response, UNRWA (UN Relief and Works Agency) officials informed the IDF's Gaza Coordination and Liaison Administration that it was suspending the deliveries until further notice.

Good side: This will do much to break the anti-semitic trope that it is the Jews starving the Arabs living in Gaza.

Bad side: Women and children living in Gaza will be even hungrier now with no aid whatsonever.

Other good side: The Arabs living in Gaza know Hamas is picking fights with the Jews and starving them...this may very well be their tipping point.

Gaza is the living showcase of the fundamental error in basing foreign policy on ideological convictions instead of practical outcomes, the basic error the Bush administration made in its Mideast policy.  Unfortunately Obama is going to make Bush look like Nicolo Machiavelli by comparison.

Wanna bet? That will require the international advocacy/adversary media -- including the parts that are anti-Semitic -- to actually report this and have any objectivity in what they see and report.

Wanna bet? I'm guessing that the Arabs' overall hatred for the Jews, as well as the thuggery of Hamas, will counterbalance or quench any tipping.

Honestly. Anyone with more then two brain cells left not trying to kill each other can't actually be surprised at this. If they are willing to murder innocents what else would they be capable of ? Compared to mass murder being a thife is a small time crime.

So...  a corrupt organization is mad that another corrupt organization ripped them off.  I'm really failing to see what the problem is.

No problem, just a UN-boondoggle-sized dose of irony with a dash of YAY!

:o

I'm sure you've seen this . . . but but but is Barack Hussein Obama really using American tax-dollars to fund sleeper cell? Because that's how it looks to me.

"Hamas so Corrupt now Even the UN is Starting to do Something" .. Something in this case means "looking for a way to get in on it".
