The UN has "paused funding" UNRWA while it investigates allegations that members of that group (getting $20 million of Australian taxpayers' money annually) were involved in the October 7 terrorist attack on Israeli citizens.

Even the emotional and absurd little Antonio Guterre is "horrified" by the allegations, which were made long before the official complaint.

Will the FreeAnese with our money government pause our $20 million that could be better used in our country than it is being used by Hamas against Isreal.

Even if we pretend that the 25000 deaths is true (it isn't) and even if we ignore the fact that about half of them were actual Hamas fighters (they were), the death toll doesn't come within cooee of a genocide.

Twenty-five thousand out of 5 million (the population of so-called Palestinians) is 0.5% of the total. Killing one-half of one percent of a peoples doesn't constitute a genocide or an attempted genocide. Additionally, when you consider that the Gazan population has more than doubled since Israel unilaterally and willingly handed it over to Fatah/Hamas, the made up assertions of genocide are laughable.

The genocide in South Africa against white farmers on the other hand.....will be ignored by all those of a certain leaning.

Ever read "The Power of One," by Bryce Courtenay?

The demand from the United Nation's top court that Israel
must do everything it can to prevent genocidal acts in
Gaza certainly was a striking symbolic blow against the
war.

The judges effectively ruled that when it comes to
accusations of genocide there is a case to be heard and
immediate action Israel must take.

This is a remarkable achievement for South Africa which
brought the case.
