Every March 25th, the UN commemorates its ‘International Day of Solidarity with Detained and Missing Staff Members’ while trying not to discuss who is kidnapping them.
The ‘International Day of Solidarity with Detained and Missing Staff Members’ commemorates the day when Alec Collett, a UN Information Center director, was kidnapped by a Hezbollah front group on March 25th, 1985, in Lebanon. He was held hostage and then a video was released of him being hanged. His remains were eventually recovered in Lebanon in 2009.
Earlier this March, Israel was accused of ‘kidnapping’ his alleged Hezbollah abductor in order to get information about the remains of an Israeli abductee. The UN did not express any appreciation for this long delayed act of justice, instead it went on condemning Israel, while aiding and covering up for the Islamic terrorists who are killing and kidnapping its own people.
This ‘International Day of Solidarity with Detained and Missing Staff Members’, the UN admitted that 73 of its ‘detained’ staff members are being held by the Yemeni Shiite Islamic terrorist group known as the Houthis. Last year one of the UN detainees died in custody of the terrorists. (Unlike every Israeli air strike on Islamic terrorists, this received almost no media coverage.)
On March 18th, 2026, a week ahead of the commemoration of the 73 UN hostages being held by the Houthis in Yemen, the United Nations released its latest Yemen Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan calling for $2.16 billion in aid for Yemen. The UN had already admitted 8 years ago that their ‘aid’ was being stolen by the Houthi Islamic terrorists.
The UN led a campaign that poured billions to save Yemen from a fake famine. Since the famine began, Yemen’s population shot up from 30 million to 41.8 million. And the Houthis were able to deploy drones and rockets that held the U.S. Navy at bay as Biden provided $768 million in aid to Yemen even though the Islamic terrorists were firing missiles at U.S. Navy vessels.
The Trump administration sharply cut aid to Yemen, but the UN is still funding its kidnappers. As it always has.
‘International Day of Solidarity with Detained and Missing Staff Members’ was born when Collett, an UNRWA activist for the ‘Palestinians’ was kidnapped by Hezbollah and eventually sold to and killed by the ‘Palestinians’ in whose cause he and the United Nations had labored.
Collett’s original abductors went by Islamic Jihad or the Organization of the Oppressed on Earth, both names used by Hezbollah, a Shiite Islamic terrorist group, to kidnap and kill Americans and Britons. Hezbollah members then sold Collett for $25,000 to the ‘Revolutionary Organization of Socialist Muslims’, a name used by the Abu Nidal Organization, a terrorist group originating out of Saudi Arabia and founded by the son of the ‘Richest Man in Palestine’, which had split off from the PLO over its refusal to extend its terrorism from Americans, Britons and Israelis to fellow Muslims in Jordan. The ‘Palestinian’ Islamic terrorist group then murdered Collett.
The ‘Palestinian’ terrorists disregarded a plea from the President of the UN Staff Union that Collett had come to Lebanon to “help alleviate the plight of Palestinian refugees” on behalf of UNRWA and to release him for the “sake of the Palestinian refugees to whom he is a friend”.
Collett and the UN may have been friends of the Islamic terrorists who use the name ‘Palestinians’, but they still coldly hung him, taped the killing and sent the pictures around.
Former UN Under-Secretary General Marrack Goulding, a fellow Brit, claimed that he had “regularly asked Yasir Arafat to use his influence to get Collett released or his death confirmed… Arafat regularly said that he would see what he could do but never produced any results.”
That didn’t stop the UN from continuing to prop up Arafat and his terrorism entity.
The UN named Collett an “honorary director” and held annual commemorations while carefully avoiding naming the cause in which he had been killed. The UN’s press releases typically describe him being kidnapped by “armed men” of no denomination or cause. Specific organization names like “Islamic Jihad” and “Revolutionary Organization of Socialist Muslims” aren’t mentioned, nor are the causes like Iran’s Shiite Jihadis or ‘Palestinian’ Islamic terrorists.
Instead, the UN dedicated its full resources to fulfilling the wishes of the murderers of its own staffer while suppressing any information about the identity of the kidnappers and killers.
The UN’s latest ‘International Day of Solidarity with Detained and Missing Staff Members’ was marked by a complaint that the Houthi Islamic Jihadis backed by Iran who control Yemen had raised the number of abducted UN staffers from 52 to 73. Considering that the Houthis, whose motto is “Death to America, Death to Israel and a Curse on the Jews”, have been holding some UN personnel for 5 years, there would be no reason for them not to increase their holdings.
The UN helped the Houthis fake a famine which enriched both the international organization and the Islamic terrorists, and forced an end to the Saudi campaign against the Houthis as the terrorists and their western collaborators spread videos of sick kids across social media with the hashtag #YemenFamine. That fake famine became the prototype for the fake Gaza famine once again executed by the United Nations in collaboration with a Muslim terrorist organization.
The media claimed that 85,000 children had starved to death in Yemen even as the country’s population increased by 30%. And even though the UN’s famine lie had saved the Houthis, the Islamic terrorists ungratefully went on robbing the UN, seizing its food deliveries and reselling them to buy weapons, and kidnapping and killing the UN’s employees.
The UN’s World Food Programme, the same organization that faked the Gaza famine, complained in 2018 that the Houthis were stealing the food and warned that it would stop sending aid. “It’s a disgrace, criminal, it’s wrong, and it needs to end,” it warned.
Eight years later, the United Nations is still complaining about how the Houthis are mistreating them and taking advantage of them and still sending them billions in aid. Meanwhile Israel, the one country that the UN condemns more than any other, is the one that has punished the Houthis for their terrorism and obtained a measure of justice for the murder of Alec Collett.
There is no evil men will not do when led by Allah (Satan|) and these demons of hell.
The UN is part of an evil empire. That fact explains everything.
Kick them out of the United States . White helped get it started here and he was nothing but a Communist!
When Iran has been finished with Trump needs to tell the Saudis they can finish what they started in Yemen before the UN and the Western leftard media cretins stepped in.
The Narrative says that the Saudi military operations against the Houthis were inept and ineffective, which is a complete lie.
They were so effective that the famine lie was created to get them to stop.
Exactly.
When Muslim terrorists cry ‘famine’, it’s because they’re losing and they turn to their leftist allies to bail them out.
That seems like a vicious circle. Give them more money, they take more hostages.
Of course! It’s working, so it continues. Now, who’s fault is that?
More great writing by Daniel… with more evidence that it’s a mad mad mad frustratingly mad world.!
Thank you, Mark.
THe employees have no one but themselves to blame for their predicaments. Unfortunately the money is 99.99% Us taxpayer dollars.
Exactly, we can’t get out of the UN fast enough for me.
It’s long overdue for the U.S. to withdraw from the U.N. and give them 48 hours (or 72 hours, to be generous) to pack up and clear out of New York completely, and turn over the complex for commercial redevelopment by a qualified, experienced private developer (how about the Trump Organization?) as office space and 5-star condominiums.
At its founding in San Francisco in 1946, it seemed like a good idea, or at least a gamble worth taking–although the American delegate, Alger Hiss(?) was an agent of Stalin.
Over the decades, the U.N. metastasized into an organization controlled by our most dangerous and implacable enemies–Communists and terrorists–intent on handcuffing and humiliating us, and effective only in handing over billions of U.S. dollars to themselves and their friends to finance their ongoing war against the U.S. and Western Civilization.
The same goes for NATO–originally, in 1949, a good idea to deter the Soviet conquest of Western Europe, and for 50 years effective at that. But at its 50-year Anniversary in 1999, and with the collapse of the USSR, the organization should have been disbanded with a hearty “Mission Accomplished! Well done!” instead of continuing to look for “new dragons to slay” as a pretext for continuing to siphon-off billions (or is it trillions, by now?) of dollars in U.S. cash and American troops and materiel.
NATO’s current irrelevance and worthlessness was most recently demonstrated by the Members’ refusal to send any minesweepers or EOD teams to help us clear and protect the Strait of Hormuz, even though the Europeans (and Communist China) are far more dependent on oil transiting the Strait than we are.
So, “Buh-bye, U.N. and NATO! Good luck WITHOUT THE UNITED STATES AS YOUR SUGAR DADDY!”
Exactly. The UN is an enemy organization we fund. The solution is pretty simple.
Thanks, Daniel. This piece is superb and spot-on, as all of yours always are.
Now…I don’t have to worry that something will suddenly “snap” inside your head and you’ll go insane and over to The Other Side, as happened to Tucker, Megyn, Candace, and Marjorie, do I, I hope?
(L.O.L.!)
Tucker and crew had no intellectual principles, it was easy to see early on and reject them on that basis before they became turncoats.
I so appreciate the author’s use of quotation marks around the word ‘Palestinians’ because as that word is used today it is the nickname for a scam.
That’s exactly what it is. A political term detached from any truth or reality.
Can someone explain to me why the UN remains on US soil and continues its wicked and biased support for failed Islamic states? It’s truly baffling.
because even the best of our leaders try to reform it, rather than kick it out, and the worst of our leaders love it
The reason the Arab/Israeli conflict has not been peacefully settled has always been the refusal of the Arab and greater Muslim world to accept Israel’s existence as a Jewish majority state. A very good case could be made that this is not in the interest of the surrounding Arab states. The benefits of peaceful cooperation would greatly outweigh the suffering from repeated brutal wars fought in the hope that they will eventually drive the Jews into the sea.
I think one can infer from the facts of this article a major reason why this insanity continues. The Arab world and indeed the greater Muslim world suffers from many internal conflicts over religious doctrine, language differences, artificially imposed boundaries, severe class conflict and a lack of institutions capable of resolving differences peacefully. The one issue that all these factions could agree on is that they hate Israel and its Jewish inhabitants. Jews are for them what they have provided for others over the centuries, a convenient scapegoat.
Many liberals in the United States, including unfortunately many Jewish liberals, want to believe in the fiction that Israeli policies are somehow responsible for the unrelenting hostility of its neighbors. They will point to whatever evidence they can find to explain how Israel is just one more concession away from a peaceful solution. I think it stems from a desire to find some measure of control over a chaotic and threatening situation. If somehow, we, the victims of the conflict, are somehow responsible for our troubles than by changing ourselves we can achieve some measure of safety. It is a delusion but I am afraid too many liberal American Jews cling to this myth.
The UN operates on USA soil! And yet they get away with the most vile and satanic acts. What they have done to Israel since 10-7-2023 is proof of who they are in bed with. And this is going to get worse as Western Europe has fallen to what the USA would have fallen to if we did not make the 2024 election Too Big to Rig!
La-fascista Francesca Albanese — The UN Official Who Echoed Nazi Propaganda Against Jews — Gets a Soft Landing from Politico.
For years, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese has waged a relentless antisemitic hate campaign against the Jewish people and Israel. It dates back at least to 2014, when she peddled classic conspiracy tropes, claiming America was “subjugated by Jewish” and Europe paralyzed by Holocaust guilt—rhetoric straight out of the antisemitic playbook that has endangered Jews for generations.
Her twisted path only intensified in 2022, when backing from the OIC [Islamic countries bloc] and like-minded lobbies helped install her as the UN’s so-called “Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967.” From that platform, she has flooded the world with vicious, unfounded accusations, blood libels, and outright Holocaust inversion. Her extremism grew so grotesque that prominent human rights experts branded her the “Goebbels” of our time for her systematic propaganda, lies, and demonization of Jews defending themselves.
Albanese [whose husband had worked for “Palestinian” Authority] has repeatedly whitewashed the genocidal Hamas regime’s October 7 atrocities—the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust—while branding Israel’s right to self-defense as fake “genocide,” “apartheid,” [- Pallyweid] and Nazi-like evil. Multiple European governments, along with the United States and others, have openly condemned her conduct, with some explicitly calling for her dismissal due to her antisemitism and abuse of office.
Yet today, ‘Politico EU’ airbrushes this entire poisonous record into the innocuous phrase that she merely “spoke out on Gaza.” This is not neutral journalism—it is journalistic malpractice that sanitizes years of inflammatory antisemitic rhetoric, downplays the legitimate outrage from governments and Jewish communities, and shields a UN official who has weaponized her mandate to spread hate and delegitimize the one Jewish state on earth.
When mainstream outlets reduce documented antisemitism and atrocity denial to bland euphemisms, they don’t just fail at reporting—they actively erode the moral clarity needed to confront Jew-hatred in our time.
This comes a week after Politico published a Nazi inspired made cartoon.
Politico really showed its “spots” (like the Leopard) with that article.
The un is a money laundering TERRORIST Organization, KICK THEM the FVCK OFF AMERICA SOIL let the euroTRASH have them with the rest of the mooSLIME DEATH CULT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BACK STABBING TRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Start a new, revamped UN. Call it The Freedom Nations. Its charter should be simple and straightforward.
1. Protect and defend freedom.
2. Protect historical cultural identity.
3. Protect and defend every nations right to exist.
4. Suspend any member who violates any of the above.
5. Assist any member nation in times of famine, plague or violent, unwarranted attack.
6. Look after one another.
Any nation unwilling to abide by the charter will not be eligible for membership in The Freedom Nations.
It’s a start anyway.
