It doesn’t matter if 12, 5, 3 or 0 UNWRA employees participated in the massacre of October 7th because UNRWA is the ideological backbone that gives birth (decade after decade, generation after generation) to the idea of return.
It is absurd that UNWRA doesn’t operate under any international standards and creates perpetual refugeehood.
It counts 5.9 million refugees.
Almost none of them by International standards are refugees.
40% of them are citizens of Jordan.
40% are in the West Bank and Gaza, somewhere they consider to be Palestine and indeed engage in efforts to have Palestine recognised.
The rest are in Lebanon and Syria of which 2/3 have left and become citizens of other countries.
My favourite Palestinian refugee is Mohammed Hadid, the multi millionaire who is an American citizen and father to supermodel Gigi. Yes, he is still on the list as no one is ever removed.
Had the rest of the world been recognised as refugees in the same way as UNWRA does for the Palestinians the (relative) peace that has marked much of the world since WW2 would have been replaced by constant war.
This is the reason why UNWRA should be defunded/dismantled.
