Members of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) teaching and administrative staff celebrated Hamas’ massacre of 1400 Israelis and abductions on October 7th. UN Watch, a human rights organization that monitors the United Nations’ compliance with the principles of its own Charter, has just issued a blistering report exposing this scandalous endorsement of the actions of genocidal terrorists
For example, an UNRWA principal, Iman Hassan, praised the massacre for “restoring rights” and “redressing” Palestinian “grievances.”
An UNRWA teacher, Osama Ahmad, posted, “Allah is Great, Allah is Great, reality surpasses our wildest dreams” on the morning of October 7th as news of the genocidal attacks was spreading,
An UNRWA English teacher, Asmaa Rafiq Kuheil, posted, “7th, October, 2023! Sculpture the date!” To make sure that nobody missed the point, this Hamas supporter added a heart emoji to his post.
Another UNRWA English teacher, Mohammed A. Adwan, justified Hamas’ deliberate slaughter of the most Jews on a single day since the Holocaust as “resistance, regaining our rights and defending our land.” He propagated the blood libel that Israeli Jews are European colonizers who “occupy” the Palestinians’ homes and “displace our ancestors with massacres.” According to this false victimhood narrative, the Jewish people who live in Israel today have no historical connection to the land of Israel, the Jewish homeland where Jews have lived continuously for nearly 4000 years. This false narrative also castigates the Jewish inhabitants as white European “colonialists” – a racist accusation that ignores Israel’s actual demographics. A higher percentage of Israeli Jews today are categorized as Mizrahi (descendants of African and Middle Eastern Jews) than Ashkenazi (descendants of European Jews). Mizrahim, who were welcomed to reside in Israel and became Israeli citizens, were often fleeing persecution of Jews in the Arab lands where their families had lived for centuries. Arab countries, on the other hand, have been far less hospitable to so-called Palestinian “refugees.”
Mohammed Al-Shaikh Ali, who has identified himself as an UNRWA employee, posted an ominous warning on October 10th to any Gazans thinking of escaping Gaza to Egypt: “Anyone who talks about taking refuge in Sinai is a traitor, and such people, along with anyone who tries to flee to the south, should be treated the way we ought to treat traitors.”
An UNRWA Gaza psychological school counselor, Niveen Afana, posted her prayer the day after Hamas’ savage attacks on Israeli civilians: “Allah, have mercy on our martyrs, heal our wounded, free our prisoners, strengthen our mujahideen (holy warriors), and grant them victory over the unbelievers.”
These examples and others that UN Watch’s report describes of UNRWA staff’s hate speech, blood libel against Jews, and support for the Hamas terrorists are sickening but not unexpected, given UNRWA’s anti-Semitic track record. But this evil phenomenon is spreading throughout the world, including across America.
Even in New York City, home to the largest Jewish community in the world outside of Israel, public school teachers are spouting the same hate speech and demonization of Israel as the pro-Hamas UNRWA teachers do.
A Manhattan pre-K teacher, Siriana Abboud, for example, “offers social-media guides on how to talk to 4-year-olds about ‘land theft, displacement and ethnic cleansing,’” the New York Post reported. “She proselytized online that ‘teaching can never be radical or revolutionary, so long as you deny the ongoing and violent colonization of Palestine by Zionism’ and that early education can be a ‘tool for liberation.’” Abboud called Israel a “fascist ethnostate.”
New York’s Department of Education rewarded Ms. Abboud earlier this year with the Big Apple Award for 2023-2024 as a “liberation-inspired educator” who advocates “global consciousness.” The only “consciousness” she possesses is her hatred of Jews. The award entitles this anti-Semite to engage with the School Chancellor’s Teacher Advisory Council where she will have the opportunity to advocate for incorporating her blood libel against the Jewish State of Israel in citywide education policies and programs.
Ms. Abboud should not be anywhere near pre-K children with her poisonous ideas, let alone being in a position to influence any citywide education policies and programs. She should be required to forfeit her award and be kicked out of the School Chancellor’s Teacher Advisory Council.
A Gotham Tech High School teacher, Mohammad Jehad Ahmad, denounced New York City’s Department of Education for distributing to the city’s teachers some sources of information it recommended for use in classroom discussions on the Israel-Hamas war. Ahmad claimed the Department was distributing “Zionist propaganda” even though the Department of Education referenced some websites that are heavily biased against Israel.
Mr. Ahmad called New York City Chancellor David Banks a “white supremacist, imperialist scumbag” for daring to condemn Hamas’ October 7th terrorist attacks. Ahmad praised Hamas’ dastardly massacre of young people at a music peace festival and Hamas’ slaughter of families, young children, and even babies as “a successful military campaign.”
Ahmad also wrote on X: “So-called ‘Israel’ is a settler colony that was invented and only continues to exist through terrorism, dispossession, ethnic cleansing, and ongoing incremental genocide.” And he displayed a pro-Hamas paraglider photo online.
“How can Jews feel safe in Mohammad’s classroom?” Justin Spiro, a New York City school social worker, asked. They can’t. This pro-Hamas Jew hater does not belong anywhere near a classroom, but he is counting on his teachers’ union to protect him.
New York City school teachers, staff, and students walked out of the city’s schools to participate in a pro-Palestinian rally on November 9th, in concert with a nationwide “Shut it down for Palestine” protest. The Palestinian Youth Movement, the National Students for Justice in Palestine, the ANSWER Coalition, the People’s Forum, and the International Peoples’ Assembly were the organizers of the nationwide walkouts. Their stated purpose was to “keep building momentum and increase the pressure with more marches, walk-outs, sit-ins, and other forms of direct action directed at the political offices, businesses, and workplaces that fund, invest, and collaborate with Israeli genocide and occupation.”
New York City public school teachers participating in the walkout ignored Chancellor David Banks’ warning that “When speech and action — even on one’s personal time — undermines the mission or core functions of NYCPS [New York City Public Schools], we will review and take appropriate action on a case-by-case basis.” He made it clear in his e-mail to teachers and staff that even out-of-school political activity can violate city rules if it “disrupts … the school environment.”
In this case, New York City teachers walked out of school during their working hours, along with students and staff, to incite hate against Israel with their scurrilous accusation that Israel is committing genocide of the Palestinian people. By their actions, they have contributed to creating a more hostile “school environment” for Jewish students who are pro-Israel. The teachers especially deserve punishment for shirking their educational responsibilities to spread hate.
In Massachusetts, a school superintendent sent an e-mail just days after the Hamas massacre to teachers in her district directing them to a site that states: “Contrary to the standard mythology, especially in Israel, Israeli terrorism has been significantly worse than that of the Palestinians.”
On the Left Coast, the Oakland Education Association responded to the October 7th terrorist attack and aftermath by condemning Israel. This union accused Israel of maintaining a “75 year long illegal military occupation of Palestine” and espousing “genocidal rhetoric and policies against the people of Palestine.”
The Oakland Education Association recommended to its members that they should use the “Teach Palestine” website as a resource. This website points to several examples of lessons for teachers to use in brainwashing their students with pro-Palestinian propaganda.
In one example, a third-grade teacher describes how she coaches her students to believe the false narrative that Israel was created as “a European colony” resulting in the forcible removal of “750,000 Palestinians from their homes and lands.” This teacher indoctrinates her students to view the Palestinians’ experience as equivalent to the Native Americans’ loss of land in the United States.
The third-grade teacher says not a word to her students about the continuous presence of Jews in their historic homeland for nearly 4000 years because such a fact would contradict her colonization fabrication. She skips over the fact that the Arabs rejected the opportunity for the Palestinians to have an independent state of their own in 1948, as well as the Palestinian leadership’s rejection of Israel’s generous land for peace offers several times since. She omits any mention of Hamas’ declared mission to destroy Israel altogether and kill as many Jews as possible.
The pro-Hamas teachers are stuck in their own web of lies and vicious slurs with their attempts to rationalize, even celebrate, Hamas’ savagery. They are complicit in egging on the Palestinian terrorists to conduct more vicious attacks against Israeli civilian women, children, infants, and the elderly in what a Hamas media adviser said will hopefully become a “permanent” state of war.
How many times have successive Palestinian leaders rejected any sort of two-state solution?
There was the British government’s Peel Commission in the thirties, then the UN resolution, then
the Clinton and Olmert proposals and most recently the very clever and enlightened Kushner proposal.
NB: Check out the maps for each of these on Google Images.
Mahmoud Abbas took the Kushner map to the UN and waved it above his head in contempt and disdain,.
If he’d accepted the Kushner ideas and started to implement them, an immense amount of suffering
would have been avoided.
One version of events, according to an eyewitness, was that Clinton banged the table with both fists
and yelled at Arafat “You will never have a chance like this again! Never!”

It is also claimed that MBS, the de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia, told Abbas bluntly to accept
the Kushner proposals or face the loss of Saudi financial support.
PART 1
I condemn Hamas as being a terrorist organization that uses civilians as human shields,the say the Ukrainian army does for civilians.
The existence of Israel as a STATE is a fact, to be for its eradication would be a crime.
However,regarding how it came into existence we have this:
1. The FIRST Jewish emigration from EUROPE to Palestine,called the first Aliyah (1881-1903), occured when Palestine was part of the OTTOMAN empire.
25,000 went to live there.I don’t know how accurate but I read MOST left after a few years since they were living very poorly.
Then came the second aliyah,1904-1914, with 35,000 arriving.
2. Then there were about 150,000 Jews BORN in the Ottoman empire,of which only 20,000 live in Palestine (then total population 400,000) and spoke Arabic,and the rest did NOT want to live there,but lived well-off in Smyrna,Istanbul and Salonica,and spoke LADINO, a sort of Spanish.
3. In 1882, first the SULTAN had passed a law that PROHIBITED more Jews from living in Palestine.
It was in force for about 20 years,then it was allowed,but restricted.
More Jews,whether Ottoman citizens or foreigners and also later on, from BUYING LAND in Palestine.However,due to BRIBERY by European Jews of Ottoman officials, they did settle,breaking the law. That gives a bad impression of the Zionist movement.
PART 2
ABOUT BALFOUR
He was a very important British politician who in 1917 wrote the BALFOUR DECLARATION ,a public statement issued by the British government announcing its support for the establishment of a “national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine.
1. Verify,and it turns out Balfour was an ANTISEMITE,detested the Jews,and wanted to help Europe get rid of the Jews by them emigrating out of Europe.
In 1906 he has helped pass a law to PROHIBIT more Jews entering the UK from RUSSIA.
2. He was also a RACIST and we have PUBLIC declarations by him as a government official about Blacks in Africa being inferior to whites..
ANOTHER REASON
Balfour wanted the creation of a Jewish state in the Middle East because of OIL.
By having a EUROPEAN state in the Middle East,with settlers from Europe,the UK would have an ALLY in controlling the oil rich areas there. An ally it could count on even for MILITARY attacks if such and such an Arab, Iranian government went AGAINST the oil interests of the UK in the region.
In other words,to have an ally in maintaining IMPERIALISM by Europe in the Middle East.
PART 3
VLADIMIR JABOTINSKY was a Ukrainian Jew who created the JEWISH LEGION in Palestine that during WW I
helped the British defeat the Ottomans.
1. The FATHER of NETANYAHU ,Benzion Netanyahu, was assistant to Benjamin Azkin, Jabotinsky’s personal secretary..
2. We have SEVERAL types of ZIONISTS: Golda Meyer and Ben Gurion were LABOR Zionists ( Marxist) and Jabotinsky created REVISIONIST Zionism.
GREATER ISRAEL
The RELIGIOUS political parties in Israel ,the religious zionists,are for a Greater Israel ( from the Nile to the Euphrates) because in GENESIS 15:18 it says:
“On that day the Lord made a COVENANT with Abram and said, “To your DESCENDANTS I give this land, from the Wadi of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates”
It includes JORDAN ( 11 million Arabs)
Jabotinsky,who despised Judaism,was ALSO for a Greater Israel, and the BRITISH MANDATE of PALESTINE ( 1922-1948) was originally to give to the Jews Gaza,West Bank,Israel today and JORDAN.
Jabotinsky was an ultranationalist, NON-religious and he is interesting because:
1. He stated that yes,the Arabs in the region were the INDIGENOUS people,and that as such,their OPPOSITION to a Jewish state,even going to WAR,
their opposition to MORE and more and more European Jews,foreigners, entering and settling
was from the point of view of a native people,JUSTIFIED.
2.Yet as a Jewish nationalist he was for more and more Jews entering Palestine to have a majority and thus,by force, create a Jewish state.Jabotinsky died before the creation of Israel in 1948,he died in 1940.
3.He was also an ADMIRER of MUSSOLINI.
PART 4
Jabotinsky is the spiritual father,inspiration of LIKUD, party of Netanyahu,which in its charter,by PRINCIPLE
not because of Muslim terrorism,
even if there were no Muslim terrorists ever, is against having an INDEPENDENT West Bank(which includes East Jerusalem) and Gaza.
THE LATEST NEWS
It is being claimed that a DEAL has been struck, that Hamas will free 100 hostages and that Israel will free ALL the
WOMEN and CHILDREN ( of a total of 5,000 prisoners taken in the West Bank) who are in prison. Some of the children………………..are UNDER 10 years old.
How can children be imprisoned? Because the West Bank is under Israeli MILITARY law and you can be detained without evidence.
PART 5
As multipolaristas have said before,the good news is there is a CIVIL war between GLOBALISTS,one side literally ORDERING the Globalist press to publish
negative articles,show negative reportage on TV, against Ukraine and Israel,
to avoid a NUCLEAR war.
THE WASHINGTON POST (owned by Amazon’s JEFF BEZOS,oligarch)
It is the paper the DEEP STATE uses to say what it wants the zombie public to believe,just now it has come with an article (“Ukrainian military officer coordinated Nordstream pipeline attack”) that says UKRAINE
is responsible for the NORDSTREAM terrorist explosion,saying Ukrainian colonel ROMAN CHERVINSKY,of its Special Forces, is the one who organized it.
Why? To avoid a nuclear war with Russia,get out of Ukraine.
By the way Chervinsky is NOW being PROSECUTED by Zelensky, so he is spilling the beans as revenge.
“Ukraine ADMITS To Blowing Up Nordstream ” ( by Breaking Points) ( 12 min )
The UN/NEA both a re about the very same leftists propaganda as it always has been and always will be we have just more reasons to totally pull out of the United Nations Period and moved the whole lot out of America
How can so much ignorance persist in a culture that once was the home of an advanced people?
How can so much historical ignorance persist in a culture that once provided intellectual leadership to the world?
What are these people doing in America, let alone “teaching?”
I’ve watched videos where ordinary Gazans were interviewed in the street
as to whether there should be a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict. Every man and woman said “No, because Israel stole the land
they’re on from the Palestinians!” I want to clarify that I do not agree with
them. Here is how they explained it:
They said the land in its entirety – Gaza, the West Bank and what is now
Israel – was comprised of about 80% Arabs and 10-20% Jews. That it
was the Palestinians who dominated the land where all religions lived in
harmony together. And that during and after WW II, Jews began pouring
in from Europe and Russia to significantly increase their population. Then
the Jews stole part of the land for themselves, forcing 750,000 Arabs to
flee their ancestral homes. They stressed that Israel illegally occupies
“their” land.
Never once from anyone did I hear that the conqueror, the British,
decided to partition the land and give some of it to the Jews to form a
state and the rest to the Palestinian Arabs to form their own state. Which
was within their legal right to do. The British then turned over the final
decision for this to the UN which agreed with it. Never once did I hear
from ordinary Palestinians that 750,000 Arabs fled because of repeated
announcements that surrounding Arab nations intended to annihilate the
brand new Jewish state and that afterwards the Palestinians could return.
It is astounding to watch people all over the world march and intimidate
others in support of the Big Lie of illegal occupation. And to read about
its acceptance and promotion in America’s educational system as outlined
in this informative article. That Big Lie is one of the greatest hoaxes in
human history.
Our politicians won’t do it, so how will we get the UN out of the United States, out of New York? They are our deadly enemy.
