UNRWA will hold a "tolerance workshop" to root out endemic antisemitism from its staffers. Really.

Israeli officials are up in arms over the UN agency for Palestinian refugees' refusal to take action against employees who incite violence and promote antisemitism online.

A report by UN Watch, a Geneva-based nongovernmental organization that monitors UN activity, found 113 instances of incitement to violence by UNRWA staff, in clear violation of UNRWA's rules.

Israel's Ambassador to the UN and the US demanded UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini take action against those cited in the UN Watch report. The UN body, however, rejected Erdan's demand, announcing it would host a workshop for employees on the issue instead.

A workshop!

Let me remind our readers that one of the worst examples I found in UNRWA online teaching materials of antisemitism was inside their curriculum on human rights! Meaning that UNRWA's own "human rights experts" were antisemitic.

How can an agency which has been shown to spread antisemitism time and time again be trusted to create an effective workshop that can eliminate it just by having antisemitic employees attend a couple of times?

The idea of a "workshop" to teach tolerance to employees of an agency which is committed to remain in existence until the Jewish state is destroyed (via "return") is a sick joke. And it proves that UNRWA has no real interest in addressing its real problems.
