President Joe Biden’s administration has allocated $223 million for the UN’s Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), a body which has a history of promoting terrorism and Jew-hatred among Palestinian children.
The Biden State Department raised the annual funding for the agency by $16 million, despite repeated reports showing that the UNRWA-run schools are used to indoctrinate Palestinian youth in the ideology of jihad terrorism.
The textbooks, generously funded by the U.S. and European countries, are designed to raise the next generation of recruits for Palestinian terrorist organizations, investigative reports show. “UNRWA teachers and schools regularly call for the murder of Jews and create institutional teaching materials that glorify terrorism, encourage martyrdom, demonize Israelis and incite antisemitism, a recent report found,” the news agency Jewish News Syndicate noted June 25.
In 2018, President Donald Trump ended all funding for the UNRWA, rightly labelling it an “irredeemably flawed” organization. President Biden reversed the decision shortly after taking office, pledging $235 million for the UN agency in 2021. The U.S. pays nearly one-third of the agency’s $1 billion annual budget.
“Textbook incitement continues as US reaches peak support of UNRWA,” Ynet News, June 26, 2023:
The U.S. State Department announced Monday that the United States support budget for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) will reach a record high of $223 million this year.
The increasing amount of support, which is $16 million higher than the previous year, solidifies Washington’s position as the largest donor to UNRWA. Former U.S. President Donald Trump halted all funding of the agency, but since the beginning of President Joe Biden’s term the U.S. has allocated almost a billion dollars to UNRWA.
The announcement of support for UNRWA comes despite the statements of Barbara A. Leaf, the U.S. assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs, who criticized UNRWA. In a conversation with members of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee last week, Leaf said that the State Department is aware of ongoing reports of incitement to violence in UNRWA schools.
We have concerns about curricula or classroom instruction that promote violence and terrorism. It’s a work in progress, and we are committed to it,” Leaf said. However, she did not elaborate on how the State Department plans to address this issue….

And yet, with all the Jew hatred, BDS groups, support for terrorist groups, anti-Israel politicians, American Jews still vote for DEMOCRATS who are fake Jew supporters only to get their money!
Many of them are JINO’s, Jews in Name Only, who are the professional activists who say they are The Voice of the Jews!
Remember Obama snubbing Netanyahu? Remember when Netanyahu spoke to Congress and how many hated him but had to attend or else they’d be outed, no more cash?
Now Biden is doing the same to Netanyahu while funding continues to those who seek Israel’s destruction.

It truly is stunning.
Such myopic, herd mentality is unhealthy.

The secular Jewish establishment is silent because it has sold out to the woke world on this issue
Jason P says
The anti-Jew pro-jihad left has infiltrated the Democratic Party. Many Muslims however are returning to the GOP because of social conservative sympathies. There will be pressure by anti-gay Republicans and paleo-cons to question the GOP’s support for Israel. FPM is a pro-Israel bulwark & plays an important role fighting the Islamic threat.

Funding division all across the globe. Its almost like they want to create factions.
Mo de Profit says
The very name of this agency is deliberately deceptive designed to pretend that they are helping all refugees while ONLY pumping millions into the corrupt Palestinian regime.
Defund the UN now!
Kasandra says
The EU found that the books and syllabi still were violent and anti-Semitic. So the U.S. maladministration already knows that and continues to and even raises funding to the PA and UNRWA. At least the EU will pretend to cut funding. Then UNRWA will say it will end the incitement, the EU will resume funding and the same books will be used. Rinse and repeat.

Luz Maria Rodriguez says

Biden just Continues to support the enemy of all more reasons she should be Impeached
Justin Swingle says
we should always expect joe to be on the OTHER SIDE.
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
Not to repeat, but that exactly is what Obama Sec of Def, Bob Gates, said about Joe Biden: ‘he has been on the wrong side of most policy issues for over four decades.’
Of course, the corker was Obama when he said, ‘do not ever underestimate Joe Biden’s ability to f__ something up.’
Gates and Obama described the lying crook seamlessly.

The sooner the present occupant of the WH is removed, the better. It cannot happen soon enough.
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
Possibly the ONLY reason the establishment does not remove him now is that it would mean Harris rules the roost through 2024. Talk about a comedy of errors. It would surpass our current clown.
That would be a guarantee that a GOP candidate take the seat January 20, 2025.
So, we hang on. It’s another “Weekend at Bernie’s.” That’s why i’m investing in Depends stock in case the clown visits the Vatican again.

Just remember that BO is the author of all this insanity we see right now. The madness is what happens when you elect a closeted, gay, adolescent, affirmative action recipient, and Islamsimp posing as a Christian.
