    You know why Israel can’t provide the “Evidence” to the public?

    Because it would compromise intelligence sources? Countries don’t share intelligence with anyone, only with other countries they trust. Those countries immediately stopped funding the UNWRA, despite the political cost of doing so.

    Even the UN fired some people and launched a probe into it. Seems the UN doesn’t think “they’ve got nothing.”

      The cited intelligence sources were literally armed troops confiscating items from occupied territory. Why would they need protection? From what? They’re not hiding from anything.

      Only 9 nations withdrew funding, the largest of which was the USA with roughly half the budget cuts total amount.
