If Donald
Trump dumped UNRWA it would be a miracle

Many of you may
not know that the United Nations treats Arabs (so-called Palestinians), who
lost the 1948 war with Israel, as a very special class of ‘refugee’ with their
own very special UN agency called the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) and
we pay a huge amount of your tax dollars to keep it going.
Why am I showing this map of
expanding Muslim military conquests? Because if one is going to argue that the
Palestinian Arabs have a “right of return” to the land Israel now controls, can
we argue that Christians and Jews have a right of return to all the lands Islam
took from them by military force? Yes!
These ‘refugees’ (it is debatable
about whether they are even legitimate refugees) are not cared for by the usual
refugee agency—the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)—but have their own
‘camps’ (not camps, but cities) maintained partly by you as a perpetual thorn
in the side of Israel.
If Arab countries really cared about ‘Palestinians’ and peace, they
would have long ago absorbed the Palestinian Arabs, but in fact they are more
valuable as thorns in Israel’s side then as humans.
Here an opinion writer at the New York Post argues that the
Trump Administration should end US backing of UNRWA—turn off the spigot from
the US Treasury to the UN agency! (emphasis is mine).
As the UN General Assembly voted to reject America’s recognition of
Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, US Ambassador Nikki Haley issued a stern
warning: We’ll remember this the next time you come calling for more
hard-earned American taxpayer dollars. Most nation-states called her bluff,
leaving many to wonder what comes next.
If President Trump wants to use his financial leverage at the United
Nations to strike at the heart of the anti-America, anti-Israel institutional
infrastructure, he should look no further than the agency responsible for
Palestinian refugees: the United Nations Relief and Works Agency.
By most definitions, refugees are
those forced to flee their country because of persecution, war or violence.
Nearly every refugee in the world is cared for by the United Nations High
Commissioner on Refugees, whose ultimate goal is repatriation, resettlement and
integration. The exception? Palestinian refugees. [Actually he is wrong about the legitimate definition of a refugee, who
must prove persecution, war and violence have been added in by the refugee
expansionist movement.—ed]
Arab states insisted on a different definition for Palestinian-Arab
refugees of the Israeli War of Independence — and a different agency to care
for them.
Today, millions of people are
referred to as “Palestinian refugees” even though the only home they, and in
many cases even their parents and grandparents, have ever known is either a
refugee camp or an Arab host nation like Jordan.
Rather than use the billions of
dollars of international assistance provided since 1950 to resettle and
integrate Palestinian-Arab refugees — just as Israel successfully resettled and
integrated Jewish refugees from the Middle East, North Africa and the Soviet
Union — UNRWA’s
mandate has always been to keep Palestinians as perpetual refugees.
In truth, it’s not a refugee agency
but a welfare agency, which keeps millions of people in a permanent state of
dependency and poverty — all while feeding Palestinians an empty promise that
one day they’ll settle in Israel. Yet the United States remains the agency’s largest
single-state donor. There is much more, click here.
Even a serious threat (from the
Trump Administration) to cut off the funding to UNRWA might cause the Arab
world to “welcome” their co-religionists to come live with them ending the
cycle of Middle East violence that is always blamed on Israel. (Of
course, I know it won’t end all violence because the Muslim sects will be at
each other throats forever, and Islam will continue to seek expansion of
territory that they stole from Christians and Jews.)
Every time I see some Lefty Muslim
apologist claiming that Palestinian Muslims should have their land (or some Leftwinger
claims that the Native Americans should have North America), that it is only fair, I want to ask
then at what point in human history can we go back to where everything was
FAIR! What is that magical date in history when the world’s population
was distributed fairly? Make them tell you!
