Key donors to the United Nations agency that aids civilians in Gaza have signaled that they will continue to support the organization under the right conditions despite Israeli accusations that some of its employees were involved with terrorist attacks in Israel on Oct. 7.

That support, which comes as the Israeli government has called for the international community to defund the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, known as UNRWA, suggests that an appetite could exist among donors to resolve the agency’s funding crisis.

At least 12 countries, including the United States and Germany, the two biggest donors, have said they are temporarily suspending funding after the Israeli government made its initial allegations. The United Nations said on Friday that it had fired nine employees and started an investigation.

    Well they want UNRWA gone so all Palestinians starve and die.

    But if UNRWA is gone, israel is suddenly responsible for feeding the people in their concentration camp. And they don’t want responsibility for their war crimes.

    So instead of completely removing UNRWA the goal seems to be to cripple UNRWA as hard as possible, but still have it exist to provide plausible deniability to cover up their starvation of Palestinians.

    Israel destroyed as many basic human necessities in Gaza as they could by burning their farm lands and bulldozing it, blowing up hospitals etc. So the Palestinians cannot sustain themselves without UNRWA anymore.

    If israel manages to cut off UNRWA they can kill them all. People in Gaza are already eating grass from the amount of hunger they have with the limited supply UNRWA is able to get in.
