UNRWA found a Hamas tunnel dug 7 meters below its Zaitoun Prep A Boys School in Gaza.

"UNRWA condemns the existence & potential use by Palestinian armed groups of such tunnels underneath its schools in the strongest possible terms. It is unacceptable that

students and staff be placed at risk in such a way."

In 2015, a UN investigation found that Hamas and/or Islamic Jihad stored rockets in schools that were in active use by children, and fired rockets at Israelis from UNRWA schools.

Gaza Beach school, 2014: "A 120 MM mortar tube, a mortar bipod & 20 mortar-round containers—with ammunition—were discovered under a blanket in the corner of a locked classroom." UNRWA "notified the local authorities" & "asked that the weapons be removed." un.org/unispal/docume…
This is UNRWA's Zaitoun Prep A Boys School in Gaza under which Hamas built a terror tunnel.

Which supporters of Gaza and international law have condemned Hamas for their obscene exploitation of children by using them as human shields?

SICK: The U.N.’s World Health Organization elects Syria’s Assad regime, which bombs its own people in hospitals, to its Executive Board. I urge U.N. chief @antonioguterres & WHO director @DrTedros to denounce this insult to the millions of Assad victims.
I know it's hard to believe so here's video and documentation: apps.who.int/gb/ebwha/pdf_f…

Regimes of Syria and Belarus elected to @WHO Executive Board.

"In the General Committee’s opinion these 12 Members would provide, if elected, a balanced distribution of the Board as a whole."
Electing Syria to govern the world's top health body is like hiring a pyromaniac to be the town fire chief.

Syria’s Assad regime systematically bombs hospitals and clinics, killing doctors, nurses, and others as they care for the sick and injured.

“Madam President: The United Nations was founded to prevent war. Yet today’s one-sided session, and the pre-determined investigation it proposes, will achieve the opposite — because they were the very purpose of this war.“

My intervention at yesterday's Orwellian UNHRC session.
“The purpose of Hamas, backed by Iran, was to attack Israeli cities from within populated areas in Gaza, to incur civilian casualties, and exploit the suffering of their own people -- in order to delegitimize Israel, here at the UN, in international courts, and in the media.“
“A council for human rights ought to condemn what Hamas is doing.“

Hamas welcomes today's Palestinian-drafted UNHRC resolution creating a permanent commission of inquiry that will target Israel.

It was officially backed by China, Russia, Cuba, Venezuela, Pakistan and Human Rights Watch. Image

BREAKING: @WHO deviates from addressing COVID-19 to hold session condemning one single country as a violator of health rights: 🇮🇱 Israel.

Shame on France, Spain, Belgium, Ireland for backing PLO resolution co-sponsored by Syria, Cuba, Turkey & Qatar.

unwatch.org/who-meeting-de…
The vote was 82-14, with 40 abstentions & 38 absent.

✅ We applaud the Netherlands, Austria & Colombia for changing their votes this year to No.

✅ Voted No like last year: US, UK, Australia, Brazil, Cameroon, Canada, Czech Republic, Germany, Honduras, Hungary & Israel.
However, amid a global pandemic, the minority of EU member states and other democracies who voted for the resolution should be ashamed:

❌ France, Spain, Switzerland, Belgium, Portugal, Japan, India, Ireland, New Zealand and Luxembourg.

Dear International Bar Association @IBAnews:

Your Israel-Palestine panel tomorrow has 5 for the Palestine side—@_SEDill @leilasadat1 @AdHaque110 @RizKhanShows @omarmdajani—but you forgot to get 1 for the Israel side.

Also, see the McCarthyite list your organizer is creating:
The IBA staffer organizing the event, Sara Elizabeth Dill @_SEDill, is an anti-Israel activist who routinely accuses the Jewish state of "atrocities" yet has never once condemned terrorist Hamas or Islamic Jihad for targeting civilians. twitter.com/search?q=from%…
When @SecBlinken spoke about Yom Hashoah & Holocaust remembrance, this IBA Arab Region staffer complained: "And yet they have the audacity to speak against the ICC & question its jurisdiction over modern day war crimes & genocide."

Who's the "they" & which modern-day "genocide"?

For some people, any good news about Israel is a problem. It disturbs their worldview, and makes them angry. And so their reaction to this year's good news about Israel’s vaccines was to twist it into something sinister.

My debate at UNHRC's 46th session:
"The canard that began to circulate was summarized by the comic TV news presenter on Saturday Night Live, who said, “Israel is reporting that they've vaccinated half their population — and I'm going to guess it's the Jewish half.”
"This is exactly what many around the world now believe.

Madam President, I am taking the floor today to state for the record, before the United Nations, and before the world: That is a lie."
