A week after the horrors of October 7, when the Biden administration first convinced Israel to open up the siege of Gaza and allow in international aid, it promised Hamas would not get it.
“If Hamas in any way blocks humanitarian assistance from reaching civilians, including by seizing the aid itself, we’ll be the first to condemn it. And we will work to prevent it from happening again,” Secretary of State Blinken pledged.
The problem with such a promise was obvious once Deputy National Security Advisor Jon Finer struggled to explain to CNN how it would stop Hamas from taking the aid.
“How is the United States going to ensure that none of that ends up in the hands of Hamas?” a CNN anchor asked.
Finer claimed that “this was a primary focus of the president’s diplomacy” and that “it involves securing an understanding among Hamas fighters who control the checkpoints on the other side of the border”.
The Deputy National Security Advisor assured that “the president was quite clear that if this assistance goes in, it cannot be misappropriated, it cannot be taken by Hamas fighters and so we are going to be watching that very closely.”
If anyone is watching, there’s been plenty to see as armed Hamas fighters have hijacked aid convoys in videos taken both by the IDF and civilians in Gaza. In video after video, Hamas terrorists seize aid, assault civilians who, in some cases, respond by hurling abuse and stones.
On Halloween, John Kirby, Biden’s national security spokesman, denied anything was going on.
“We have seen no indication, none, that Hamas has gotten their hands on any of the humanitarian assistance that has gone in. None of it. It goes from these U.N. trucks to humanitarian organizations and the U.N. for delivery to the people of Gaza. That’s what we’ve seen with every single one of them,” he claimed.
Then he insisted that our “UN partners” were monitoring aid with “diligence”. What were the UN partners actually doing?
In mid October, UNRWA, the UN aid agency dedicated to the so-called ‘Palestinian’ settlers and staffed by Hamas, tweeted that it “received reports that yesterday a group of people with trucks purporting to be from the Ministry of Health of the de facto authorities in Gaza removed fuel and medical equipment from the agency’s compound in Gaza City.”
UNRWA then deleted the tweet accusing Hamas of stealing aid and pretended it never happened.
In late December, an UNRWA official claimed that, “there’s no hijacking of our (UNRWA) supplies by Hamas.” The official then argued that accusations that Hamas was taking aid were a “disinformation campaign” which was “aimed at the very agency trying to help people.”
The disinformation campaign apparently included UNRWA’s own Twitter account.
Earlier that same month, a Gazan woman had told Al Jazeera that, “all of it goes into their houses. They take it and will even shoot me or do whatever they want, Hamas.”
She must have also been part of the “disinformation campaign” against UNRWA.
Months after all the assurances from the Biden administration that the aid would not end up in the hands of Hamas, it routinely does and without a word of protest or any end to the aid trucks.
Where is our aid even going?
USAID, already facing an investigation by a government watchdog and Congress over Afghan aid going to terrorists, refused to “name the nongovernmental organizations it is working with to deliver the supplies, citing security concerns” in its response to USA Today.
Since Hamas knows which organizations are working in Gaza and distributing aid, whom are Samantha Power and USAID keeping the information from?
What does it say about Power and USAID that they’re more worried about USA Today readers finding out where the aid is going?
American aid workers are in contact with Hamas, one of them said anonymously, there “just can’t be anything political.” As if there’s a non-political way to work with an Islamic terror group.
A massive fortune in aid is being handed over to Hamas for distribution by nameless aid organizations that video evidence and eyewitness testimony shows is going to terrorists.
So much for Biden’s commitment “to ensuring that civilians in Gaza will continue to have access to food, water, medical care, and other assistance, without diversion by Hamas.”
And the $100 million in “humanitarian aid” promised by Biden is just the beginning of a larger program to “reconstruct” Gaza. Much as the program to reconstruct Afghanistan put a fortune in the pockets of the Taliban that enabled them to retake the country, programs to reconstruct Gaza after previous wars had allowed Hamas to build its vast network of tunnels and develop massive fortunes: some of which were then plowed into terror programs.
The Biden administration issued a press release “welcoming” the appointment of Sigrid Kaag, as the UN Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for aid to Gaza.
Kaag’s actual last name is Al-Qaq, she’s a former leftist Dutch politician who married Anis al-Qaq, a deputy minister in Arafat’s PLO government, and has been caught funding terrorists.
In 2019, Rina Shnerb was hiking with her family when a bomb went off.
“I wanted to believe it was just a dream,” Rabbi Shnerb, her father, said. “I have experienced several bombs in my life and been saved, thank God, but this one got us,..I immediately called to Rina, shouting ‘Rina, Rina,’ I looked down and saw that she was not alive.”
One of the terrorists who was accused of aiding the attack had taken pictures with Dutch officials while working as a director at a non-profit linked to terrorists and financed by the Dutch government. Despite multiple warnings, Kaag claimed she had been unaware of the connection.
Geert Wilders had condemned Kaag for having been “photographed with terrorist Arafat and financed Palestinian terrorists.”
The Shnerb family told JNS that, “Kaag was in a position to decide whether to fund homicidal terrorists who, like the Nazis, were trying to murder Jews simply for being Jews. Kaag ignored all the warning signs and insisted on funding the PFLP terrorists. Those terrorists then murdered Rina.”
Now, Kaag is in a position to do it all over again with the backing of the Biden administration.
Kaag had previously accused Israel’s government of being “racist” and denounced Jews living in parts of the country claimed by terrorists as “illegal colonists on confiscated land.”
After violating its commitment to stop Hamas from seizing aid, the Biden administration has approved of the appointment of an official who had funded the terrorists who killed Jews.
The Biden administration has focused all of its efforts on a plan to strengthen the Palestinian Authority and have it take over Gaza. It’s doing so even though elements of the PA actually took part in the Oct 7 massacres and Fatah, which is the ruling part of the PA, endorsed it. Fatah’s Secretary-General Jibril Rajoub declared that, “what happened on October 7 was in the context of the defensive war our people are waging. Hamas is part of our political and social fabric.”
Furthermore, the PA has reportedly begun paying salaries to arrested Oct 7 perpetrators.
It’s not a question of whether our aid to the terrorist areas goes to terrorists, but which terrorists.
The State Department recently announced that the “United States has provided more than $110 million in humanitarian assistance for Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7.”
Kill over a thousand people and you get over $100 million in aid. That’s $100,000 per murder.
If we really want to stop terrorism, we should stop funding it.
Any change Biden will be tried for Treason? They should have done with Bill Clinton and Obama as well the WCC was Clintons last acts of Treason before he left office
We don’t have enough rope for all the traitors and that goes back to Vietnam and before with the Rosenberg’s. The “Oppenheimer” movie won many awards last night and Edward Teller, who I met twice in Los Alamos, he played a mean piano with a violinist friend in the orchestra I played with, and he suspected Oppie of being a Communist. Strange that the Soviets built nukes easier than ours. (I grew up in near the Trinity Site and went there many times as a kid, my friend, MCDONALD. I used to have lots of small green Trinitite rocks.)
Being here in Albuquerque, lots of Chinese, used to be Russians, probably still here but Chinese stick out. One Russian UNM student came to ABQ. to study RUSSIAN! LOL! Chinese now all over. What’s near ABQ… Sandia Labs, Los Alamos Labs, used to be the Airborne Laser, stealth fighters in southern NM, and a drone control center.
Our SECRETS are sold to the enemy, but we all know that traitors give away our secrets.
America is a broken nation and a broken people.
I’m glad I am not paying for it.
If the Western nations want to give aid to foreign countries, they should supervise the finances and what they are used for, and even supply the workers to do the rebuilding so they know where the money ends up.. If a recipient of foreign aid refuses then the aid should not be given.
All aid to Gaza can be assumed to go to Hamas, except a small percent which gets looted first by the people,etc.
Shockernot! No doubt there’s another surprise in the works: The USAF will secretly fly 100,000 plus Gazans to the US for permanent resettlement.
The UNRWA is, by its very definition, a misinformation campaign, how many people know that it only deals with fake Palestinian refugees?
Please tell me just HOW can the concept of refugees STILL holds 70-odd years after the event that caused them to become refugees? Especially since their ‘land’ of Palestine has NEVER existed?
UNRWA is part of Hamas. Over 98% of all UNRWA employees are Hamas terrorists, that is a requirement to be an employee.
All aid is going to the terrorists and TaliBiden knows it, so long as he gets his 10% he doesn’t give a damn
The U.N. and Hamas are the same organization n Gaza. Charities in general have all been infiltrated by leftists, and that is what your benevolence is funding virtually any time you give.
We’ve seen this evil before.
Samantha is to Barak as Hermann was to Adolf. Biden is to Obama as Hindenburg was to Hitler.
All the soulless egos goose step to the fuhrer’s command. This administration’s Nazis are all dangerous lunatics.
For all intents and purposes, Congress is brain dead.
Most Americans are comatose.
Maybe they just haven’t adjusted yet to having become Europe?
I imagine a day not so far away, only possible with the help of God, when an inexplicable global reawakening of truth and morality compels the forces of good to hold the “UN Trials”.
Like the “Nuremberg Trials“ which took place after WWII Nazi genocide of the Jews, the “UN Trials” will expose and render due justice to the Nazis of today.
Chief American criminal architect of the Israel solution is Obama. He made this clear when he spoke the lie in front of the entire world at the UN that the reborn, modern state of Israel in her God-given ancient homeland was some sort of illegitimate consolation prize for Europe’s Holocaust survivors, because…..it’s stolen Arab land. He further publicized this lie in his
post-presidency book, translated into 29 languages, called, drum roll, A Promised Land.
And by the way, what about those hostages, Sam? What about ‘em, Fraulein Kaag? Remember them, all you Nazis, oh, I mean humanitarians, out there?
HERE’S AN ELDERLY GAZAN WOMAN saying aid is going to Hamas. “I don’t care if they kill me.”
SENDING AID TO A U.S. LABELED TERRORIST GROUP? TREASON! DON’T WORRY, THE REPUBLICANS WILL RISE UP!
This was an easy call from the start. The civilization population IS Hamas. Only an idiot thought it’d stay earmarked for the chickenshit civilian population celebrating Oct 7th.
On another note, since when do we toss our tax dollars to a select portion of an entity we’re at war with? (“This relief fund is for the German civilians of Dresden!” Had Franklin done that in 1944, he’d have been successfully impeached.)
Well Biden and his lackeys lie about everything so why not this, too?
How do you know brandon is lying?? His lips are moving.
It’s $110M in virtue signaling. See how humanitarian we are? It’s a shit show wrapped in lies. If anyone thinks this administration can accurately monitor where this “aid”, dumped into a terrorist laden war zone, actually goes they are overdue for a lobotomy. The Bidenites think they can play both sides of the fence and come out smelling like a rose. It would be no surprise if Biden blackmailed Israel and told them to withdraw from gaza and leave all their military hardware behind.
Having worked with a number of Israelis, I would guess that if that happened, some of that hardware might find itself in Washington DC, – and ticking!
