In light of UNRWA donors’ – that’s a UN agency – recent meetings at the UN, will the U.S. ask the UN to inspect and disarm UNRWA refugee camps that have become well-equipped arsenals? And I have a follow-up question.
The question and answer were a bit muddled, but it brings up a point that is rarely mentioned in the media.
All of the major Palestinian militias that have emerged over the past two years came from UNRWA "refugee" camps.
The IDF has not had to invade Jenin -but the Jenin camp. Not Nablus - but the Balata camp. Not Tulkarem - but the Nur Shams camp.
And in Lebanon, many have been killed from infighting in the Ein al-Hilweh camp.
UNRWA is not responsible for security in the camps. But the bigger question is, why do these camps exist to begin with?
There are no longer refugee camps in India and Pakistan from 14 million refugees in the 1940s. The displaced persons camps in Europe for the tens of millions of World War II refugees were closed in the 1950s.
Why do the 600,000 Palestinian refugees from 1948 still have camps?
And especially in areas under Palestinian control, why are there camps at all? It's been nearly 30 years since Oslo and Palestinian self-rule - why do they keep the camps instead of treating their own citizens equally?
Palestinians claim that they want to live in dignity. Where is the dignity of living in a cramped, crowded area ruled by masked terrorists who
plant IEDs on every street corner?
Why aren't the Palestinians in the Jenin camp all moved to live in dignity in the rest of Jenin?
These camps, ostensibly to help Palestinians, end up prolonging Palestinian suffering. And what the media refuses to report is that this is a feature, not a bug. The camps provide the media with photo-ops to show Palestinian suffering - and blaming Israel for it, without the cameras widening their views beyond the two square miles of these real open-air prisons.
Here is what Jenin looks like outside the camp. It sure doesn't look like the Jenin we see in the media.
If you care about Palestinians, you should want to see these camps dismantled. If you care more about destroying Israel than helping Palestinians, then you want the camps to stay exactly where they are, forever, to provide a never-ending supply of angry young men to be the next generation of terrorists.
And not one nation on Earth is publicly demanding the first option.
