Here is a list of international community leaders. It referenced if they condemned Hamas for October 7th, how long before they publicly condemned Hamas, or called on Israeli hostages to be released

🧵

UNICEF chief: Catherine Russell @unicefchief

0 condemnation of Hamas, 1 month call to release hostages. Her mandate is children.

WHO Chief: Tedros Ghebreyesus @DrTedros

9 days to mention hostages. 4 tweets in total mentioning Hamas, no public condemnation.

Amnesty International: @amnesty

3 tweets TOTAL mentioning Hamas. In fact, they went out of their way to chastise Israel on October 11th effectively to victim blame. On the 7th of October while Israeli kibbutzim were overrun they also wrote this:

ICRC: @ICRC

ONE request to Hamas publicly to even visit the hostages. Chastised Israel’s response continuously.

United Nation High Commissioner on Human Rights: @volker_turk and @UNHumanRights

0. Yes, you read that right. 0 condemnations of Hamas. In fact, no mention of Hamas since 2018.

UNRWA: @UNRWA This is the group that employs 30,000 Gazans, lies about what’s in textbooks, and basically operates hand in hand with Hamas. Apparently there are no hostages. They’ve also ever written about Hamas 1 time in their entire history.

@UNRWA Save the Children: @save_children

0 condemnations of Hamas. 0 mentions of hostages. Amazingly though, we should protect all children unless apparently they are abducted from Israel.

@UNRWA @save_children Doctors Without Borders: @MSF

It took them 5 days to condemn Hamas. Know why? It’s when Israel finally responded. Also, apparently, borders start when people get abducted from Israel. 0 calls to release Israeli hostages.

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF UN Special Rapporteur, Francesca Albanese: @FranceskAlbs

Denied Hamas’ most heinous crimes, never corrected the record, took over a MONTH to even call for the release of hostages

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF @FranceskAlbs Human Rights Watch: @hrw

Have the gall to suggest that Hamas’ “political” and “military” divisions are entirely different. Effectively, this creates the idea that Hamas, who calls to murder all Jews regardless of division, has legitimacy and can stand after this.

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF @FranceskAlbs @hrw Oxfam: @oxfamgb

0 condemnations of Hamas. 0 public calls for the release of hostages. Mentioned once in a response to a single X, tweet, whatever.

You can also donate just to their Gaza appeal. You cannot donate to help Israeli communities destroyed by Hamas.

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF @FranceskAlbs @hrw @oxfamgb Open Society Foundations: @OpenSociety

So nice of them to say nothing for a month. Let’s have an open society, unless you’re a Jew held hostage by Hamas.

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF @FranceskAlbs @hrw @oxfamgb @OpenSociety EU Commission: @EU_Commission

They felt really bad on the 8th. They mourn for Palestinians and will triple all donations. Do they not understand that money and aid to Gaza ends up in the hands of Hamas? Also, they can respond to hostage situations if not about Jews.

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF @FranceskAlbs @hrw @oxfamgb @OpenSociety @EU_Commission UN Women’s Agency for Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment: @UN_Women President: Sima Bahous @unwomenchief

No condemnation of Hamas. No discussion of Israeli girls women being raped.

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF @FranceskAlbs @hrw @oxfamgb @OpenSociety @EU_Commission @UN_Women @unwomenchief Malala Yousafzai and the Malala Fund: @MalalaFund @Malala

So nice of you to never condemn Hamas and say nothing about Israelis being taken hostage for 12 days. Calls for a ceasefire and mourns Gaza, doesn’t care about how it started.

@UNRWA @save_children @MSF @FranceskAlbs @hrw @oxfamgb @OpenSociety @EU_Commission @UN_Women @unwomenchief @MalalaFund @Malala If I went into topics on false and biased reporting, @BBCWorld would have to explain how a publicly funded impartial news organization can have to issue over 10 corrections to their reporting. variety.com/2023/tv/global…

World Vision: @WorldVision

So nice of you to point out that something tragic happened in Israel 4 days later, only when you can also add Palestinians in the mix. Telling that you never called to release hostages nor directly blamed Hamas.

@WorldVision CARE International: @CAREGlobal

So nice of you CARE to never mention Hamas, call for a cessation of violence before Israel even struck Hamas back on the 8th and call for the release of hostages for the first time 1 month later.

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal Direct Relief: @DirectRelief

They have given aid to Gaza multiple times before. Don’t worry everyone, they don’t ask for any relief for hostages, Israel, and Hamas doesn’t exist.

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief Plan International: @PlanGlobal

Condemned all violence 6 days later. Hamas mentioned 0 times. This children’s aid organization has mentioned Israeli children 0 times.

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief @PlanGlobal World Food Programme: @WFP

Ready to deliver food aid to every Palestinian in Gaza. Horrified by the lack of aid. Not one word about the cause: Hamas. Not one time they asked to deliver food to the hostages.

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief @PlanGlobal @WFP With the assist:

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief @PlanGlobal @WFP World Bank: @worldbank

If we control the banks, we sure don’t control The World Bank. No condemnation until they could both sides it for 3 days. No mention of Hamas. No call to release hostages. Ready to help Gaza.

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief @PlanGlobal @WFP @WorldBank UNESCO: @UNESCO

Very concerned about things. So much so that it took them 10 days to say ANYTHING about what happened. Know what changed over 10 days? Israel fought back.

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief @PlanGlobal @WFP @WorldBank @UNESCO Part II coming up live at 9:00 PM EST

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief @PlanGlobal @WFP @WorldBank @UNESCO The most obvious one:

UNRWA Commissioner General: Philippe Lazzarini @UNLazzarini

Did you know that the head of UNRWA has NOTHING to say about Hamas or the hostages? Literally, nothing. Hamas runs the strip and he has never mentioned them once. Make it make sense.

@WorldVision @CAREGlobal @DirectRelief @PlanGlobal @WFP @WorldBank @UNESCO @UNLazzarini International Labor Organization: @ilo

Let’s not discuss what CAUSED the labor market to crash, nor discuss the hostages who are also laborers held by Hamas, nor the 20,000 Gazans who no longer work in Israel because of Hamas.

United Nations Development Programme: @UNDP

In their long extensive history in Gaza, has not once mentioned Hamas. Wants international law to be respected but said nothing for 12 days after Hamas attacked Israel.

@UNDP UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs @UNOCHA

Finally said something on October 9th with any attribution of fault to Hamas. Called to release hostages 9 days later. Did you know that Hamas doesn’t exist? Again, Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

@UNDP @UNOCHA The UN Economic and Social Commission of West Asia @UNESCWA

(Apparently this is real). Chastises Israel without any attribution of fault to Hamas who apparently doesn’t exist. (See that common theme?) Israel’s “brutal siege” apparently exists in a vacuum. There are no hostages

@UNDP @UNOCHA @UNESCWA Human Rights Foundation: @HRF

Said nothing for 41 DAYS. No human rights for hostages. No human rights for Israelis. However, finally said something and attributed fault to Hamas. Yay (?)

@UNDP @UNOCHA @UNESCWA @HRF International Rescue Committee: @RESCUEorg

Not once in their history has ever mentioned Hamas. First mentioned hostages 7 days after the 7th. Blames the “occupying” power. Hi, IRC, if we were OCCUPYING GAZA HAMAS WOULDN’T HAVE MURDERED 1,400 ISRAELIS AND KIDNAPPED 240 MORE.

@UNDP @UNOCHA @UNESCWA @HRF @RESCUEorg Children’s Rights International Network @CRINwire

For such a children’s rights group, you’d assume they would blame Hamas for taking children. But no. Blame the Jews for everything.

UN Under-Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, Martin Griffiths @UNReliefChief

Hasn’t condemned Hamas. Mentioned hostages 23 days later. Happy to meet with Iran’s FM to discuss Gaza. Martin, how much did they pay you for that photo op?

Fridays for Future @Fridays4future

This organization, led by Greta Thunberg, entered non climate politics.

No condemnation of Hamas. No call to release the hostages. Call to walkout for Palestine. Condemned Assad, didn’t mention that he killed 6,000 Palestinians.

@Fridays4future I also want to discuss the response of another UN organization that exists in our region: United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon @UNIFIL_.

They have an annual budget of $500,000,000 and serve no purpose. See Hezbollah mentioned once? Nope.

@Fridays4future @UNIFIL_ Minority Rights Group International: @MinorityRights

After waiting 18 days to finally make a statement condemning the actions of the 7th, they wrote a statement condemning what happened to Israel but failed to attribute fault. But they asked Israel to ceasefire by name.

@Fridays4future @UNIFIL_ @MinorityRights Global Campus for Human Rights: @gchumanrights

Has said nothing for over a month. However, they have coyly slipped something in, a webinar called “Child Protection in Gaza Under Attack.” Out of curiosity, were you doing a similar thing when Hamas abducted Israeli children? No.

@Fridays4future @UNIFIL_ @MinorityRights @gchumanrights UN Against Sexual Violence in War @endrapeinwar

Well, apparently that doesn’t apply to Israelis. While complimentary of Israel in 2013 for Israel’s commitment to end rape in war, apparently the UNASVW is okay with Israelis being raped in war. Here is what they said about Hamas

@Fridays4future @UNIFIL_ @MinorityRights @gchumanrights @endrapeinwar Another assist:

@Fridays4future @UNIFIL_ @MinorityRights @gchumanrights @endrapeinwar Mercy Corps @mercycorps

Very concerned about the violence in Israel and Gaza while 1400 Israelis were being slaughtered by Hamas. So merciful to not even call for the release of hostages.

@Fridays4future @UNIFIL_ @MinorityRights @gchumanrights @endrapeinwar @mercycorps Have to add this to the list. Here is a list of organizations who we know had staff at Shifa: @WHO @UNRWA @MSF @ICRC

They also all claim that they never knew Hamas was there and made no comment on the 7th.
