Horrifying: Palestinian terror groups use children to build and plant their explosives

PCHR reported on July 3 that Israeli forces shot Ali Hani Al-Ghoul in the chest, killing him. It admitted that he was a member of an armed group and said he was 20 years old.Later, the Israel/Palestine Timeline site said that al-Ghoul was shot in the head, and that he was 17 years old.His mother was interviewed:His mother brought back some of her memories with her little...

UNRWA spreads bogus statistics to other NGOs

This is a strange one.The Development Initiatives website used to have very extensive statistics on aid given, both from donors and to which recipients. But its latest report only discusses the top ten recipients, and this year the Palestinians are not listed among the top ten - they had been at or near the top from the early 2000s to at least 2015. But it does mention...

Document at UNRWA site admits UNRWA's definition of "refugee" is not valid in international law

The UN Human Rights Council issued a document last week by its reliably anti-Isrsel team of "experts" demanding that Palestinian "refugees" have the right to "return" under international law. Right of return of Palestinian refugees must be prioritised over political considerations: UN experts 2022 marked the largest ever increase in the number of forcibly displaced...

UNRWA gives free services to 775,000 who aren't refugees even by its own definition!

This table is from the UNRWA Registered Population Dashboard, showing who receives UNRWA services.We've discussed many times how the UNRWA definition of "refugee" is completely at odds with the official UN definition of refugee, drastically inflating the number of real refugees they raise funds for. They include descendants of refugees that UNHCR would never consider refugees,...

"Pro-Palestinian" activists sure don't care about the suffering of Palestinians in Iraq

There are thousands of Palestinians still living in Iraq with essentially no rights. They have been attacked, and many killed, by Iraqis since 2003. They are not recognized in Iraq as a refugee group. Other Arab countries refuse to allow them to immigrate. The Safa news agency interviewed Baghdad-based journalist Hassan Al-Khaled who said that there are some 6,000 Palestinians...

The Abenaki And Jews Have More In Common Than Just Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream (Daled Amos)

By Daled AmosBen & Jerry's was in the news again this week, as a federal judge rejected their attempt to prevent their parent company, Unilever, from allowing their ice cream from being sold in Judea and Samaria -- or as Ben & Jerry's prefers to call it: "Occupied Palestinian Territory."Just a little over a year ago, they formally joined the BDS movement when the company...

"Human rights groups" bending over backwards to NOT blame Islamic Jihad for killing over a dozen children

The Fallujah cemetery in Jabalya, where 5 children were killed by an Islamic Jihad rocket.Note the spray pattern of tiny holes from the shrapnel that PIJ uses to maximize death and damage.The response of "human rights groups" to the fighting in Gaza last weekend proves, beyond any doubt, how they try to obscure the truth about Islamic Jihad's killing of over 20 civilians,...

The UN "investigation" into Abu Akleh's death is even more ridiculous than the others

The UN High Commissioner of Human Rights pretended to investigate the death of Shireen Abu Akleh, and it came to its pre-ordained conclusion with a minimum of pretense that it was being objective.In accordance with our global human rights monitoring methodology, our Office inspected photo, video and audio material, visited the scene, consulted experts, reviewed official communications...

"Palestine:" The only "state" that wants its people to move to an enemy state

Qalandia "refugee" camp in the West Bank From Times of Israel on Tuesday: Responding to a reporter’s question on whether the US will continue to provide funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency, which provides aid to millions of Palestinian refugees, in light of a non-binding UN General Assembly resolution last month condemning the US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s...

Even the UN admits the Palestinian Authority uses administrative detention, torture

For years, NGOs and the UN have railed against the supposed inhumanity of Israel's using administrative detention against various terrorist suspects. Which makes this small comment by the UN's High Commissioner for Human Rights earlier this month all the more interesting: In the State of Palestine, my Office is also concerned that both the Palestinian Authority and the...
