Hi AC

"Only western countries recognise Hamas as a terrorist organisation."

With testimonials like this, Hamas passes with flying colours imo.

Hi Fester,

UN Watch is a leading voice and pro-Israel advocacy.
If you doubt UNRWA - why do support UN Watch?

WhiteMouse,

You found something wrong with most of the famous Jewish
people that I listed. Even saying that Antony Loewenstein had
never been to Israel.

Loewenstein has worked and lived in Israel for many years, and
has reported from Israel and Palestine since 2005.

You obviously have not read any of his books - especially
"My Israel Question" which was required reading for high
school students.

Criticizing a nation's actions is not the same as hating a
specific group of people and a person can be concerned
about the well being of Palestinians without being
antiSemitic. It's important to distinguish between legitimate
criticism and antiSemitic rhetoric.

However, I don't mean to preach. It's just getting tiresome
to continue to explain. For that reason I can see any further
conversation with you remains very barrow and unproductive.
For that reason I am politely going to disengage.

This is worth a read:

Hi Foxy,

"If you doubt UNRWA - why do support UN Watch?"

UN Watch isn't part of the United Nations. It is an independent entity that observes the UN. For example, UN Watch has collected a large amount of evidence linking UNRWA employees with terrorism and child abuse. As far as I can determine, the objective of UN Watch in this instance is to make UNRWA accountable and bring its non law abiding employees to justice.

So to answer your question, I support UN Watch because I doubt that UNRWA is acting in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations and want it and its employees made accountable.

Hi Fester,

Of course UN Watch has presented "data" about UNRWA.
It's a group that works tirelessly at the UN to
fight against any anti-Irael and any - what it
considers antiSemitic views. And to them - all critiques
of Israel are considered as being antiSemitic.

The group also criticizes the UN Human Rights Council and
many other UN bodies.

The Jewish Telegraphic Agency has described UN Watch as a
pro-Israel and very biased organization.

Hillel Neuer is the Director of UN Watch. He's been described
as a prominent Jewish defender of Israel and has been named
in the top 100 most influential people in the world by
Jewish newspapers.

UN Watch is pro-Israel and critical of UNRWA. But it also presents detailed and independently verifiable evidence in support of many of its criticisms. In an earlier post, you discussed whether we should believe Israel or UNRWA. I don’t think we should take either at their word – we should examine their arguments and evidence. UN Watch has provided detailed and verifiable evidence in support of its claims that UNRWA has links with terrorist organisations, stretching back long before the current phase of the conflict
