If you do not believe that the UN is behind the biggest aid fraud ever known to mankind just look at the WFP Emergency Appeals which lists 17 such appeals. (Ignoring the fact that the Palestinians being cared for under UNRWA should be exempt from this group)
Here are some very interesting numbers
🧵
@WFP uses various statuses for the level of food insecurity from "struggling to put food on the table" to "Acute food insecurity" and "Severely Food Insecure" needless to say "Palestine" is the sole location on planet earth which classifies as "Famine"
Of the 214.4 million the WFP looks after 500,000 are Palestinians or approximately 0.23%
These emergency appeals seek to raise 10,308,400,000US$ of which US$334,200,000 are for Palestine or 3.24% of funds.
Now let's have a look at what this means in real terms
Myanmar 16.7 Million looking to raise US$3.59/person
NE Nigeria 30.6 million people US$4.24/person
DR Congo 28 million US$15.46/person
South Sudan 77 million US$35.58/person
Somalia 46 million US$52.82/person
Afghanistan 9.5 million US$56.73/person
and Palestine you may ask?
Well for 500,000 who are the sole people on earth facing "famine" a staggering US$668.40/personImage

A Tale of Two "Nations"

According to international law, particularly the Montevideo Convention, a state must possess a permanent population, a defined territory, a government, and the capacity to enter into relations with other states. While the UN generally recognizes these criteria, they also consider factors like effective control and the capacity to fulfill international obligations
Now let us look at two such entities, one with overwhelming support by the International community and one denied this by the very same community.
We are speaking of course of Palestine and Taiwan.
Let's start with the former
PALESTINE
Let's agree that there is a permanent population. There is no defined border of such a state which is subject to a final agreement between ALL parties.
Does Palestine have a government? Well possibly not a democratic one but neither do most countries in the world.

🚨
In the last year 40,012 tonnes of food has been offloaded inside Gaza.
According to REUTERS 1 tonne of food can feed 1660 people daily thus 40,000 tonnes is sufficient to feed 66.4 million people per year !!!
Gaza has a population of ~2 millionImage
Of those 40,012t, 27,434 have been collected. What happened to the remaining 12,578t?
Only 4111t reached its intended destination a shocking 10% only
According to Reuters 4,000 t of food is sufficient to feed 1.6 million people a year.
(The figures quoted by don't quite add up but that's another story)
According to UNOPS the various UN bodies have delivered 10% of the aid Image

Israel wins the wars but always loses the diplomacy
🧵
What is happening in Gaza at the moment is a repeat of every war in the Arab Israeli conflict. Arabs attack, are thoroughly beaten and the world focuses on Arab civilians and Israeli military only. There are never any Israeli civilians and the Arab belligerence is always ignored.
1. 1948: The War of Independence and the Nakba Narrative

Arab Attack: After the UN Partition Plan (Resolution 181) in November 1947, Arab states (Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq) and local Palestinian militias rejected the two-state solution and attacked the newly declared State of Israel in May 1948. Their stated goal, as per Arab League Secretary-General Azzam Pasha, was a “war of extermination.”
Why the Nakba Narrative Overshadows the Cause:
Palestinian Narrative: The Nakba focuses on Palestinian displacement, framing it as a deliberate act of ethnic cleansing by Israel. This resonates emotionally, especially in Arab and post-colonial societies, where displacement evokes sympathy. Historians like Benny Morris note that while some expulsions occurred (e.g., Lydda), much of the flight was due to war chaos, Arab leaders’ calls to evacuate, and fear of violence—context often omitted.
Arab Propaganda: Arab states, humiliated by defeat, deflected blame by amplifying Palestinian suffering while ignoring their own rejection of partition or failure to absorb refugees (unlike Israel’s absorption of 800,000 Jewish refugees from Arab countries). Jordan and Egypt occupied the West Bank and Gaza (1948-1967) but didn’t create a Palestinian state, yet this is rarely highlighted.
Global Perception: The Nakba narrative gained traction in the UN and among emerging non-aligned nations, who saw Israel as a Western-backed “settler” state, despite its indigenous Jewish roots and legal founding.
Israel’s Weak Diplomacy: Israel, focused on survival, didn’t prioritize global PR. Its narrative of a defensive war against annihilation was overshadowed by emotionally charged images of Palestinian refugees.

Israel has been accused of everything & anything under the sun forget claims of genocide, ethnic cleansing and apartheid the very things our enemies have tried to implement for the last 100 years.
Let's have a look at some of the other unbelievable rants.
🧵
KIDNAPPING EICHMANN
Yes you heard that right. One of the linchpins of the Holocaust had settled into a mundane lifestyle in Buenos Aires under the Argentine regime. Israel was roundly condemned for bring this heinous criminal to justice. Image
ENTEBBE HOSTAGE RESCUE
After the Ugandan regime gave umbrage to the terrorists holding over 100 hostages Israel was, I kid you not, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution condemning Israel, stating that the raid was a violation of Uganda's sovereignty and a breach of the UN Charter.Image

Elias Rodriguez was a member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation.
Heard of them? read some more
Among its founders are Eugene Puryear who said of the Nova massacre " There was some sort of rave or desert party where they were having a great time, until the resistance came in electrified hang gliders and took at least several dozen hipsters, and I'm sure they're doing very fine despite what the New York Post says"
The there is Claudia de La Cruz their candidate for President of the US in the last elections @canarymission describe her as heaving "glorified Hamas terrorism, expressed support for terrorists, equated Israel with Nazi Germany and spread hatred of Israel and America. De la Cruz also promoted incitement at the pro-Hamas encampment at Columbia in April 2024."

Day 576 in Paradise. A 🧵
A ballistic missile strikes near Ben Gurion Airport and only a miracle saved us from multiple casualties.
This was the 5th missile from Yemen in 48 hours and no one would talk about it if it had been shot down.
Why have we "normalised" grabbing children and running to shelters as if we were merely going for a cup of coffee.
Meanwhile Mr Security, he who promised on the 7th October that we would destroy Hamas, return all our hostages and the civilians to their homes in the South and North.
576 days later not one of these objectives have been achieved.
And remember how he promised no aid until all hostages are returned? Well today the govt acknowledges that it WILL be allowing aid back in, and the hostages? Nada.
