“I Was Hounded, Day In, Day Out.”

Alice Nderitu, @UN’s former special adviser on the prevention of genocide, on her contentious tenure.

“It’s instructive that this never happened for any other war. Not for Ukraine, not for Sudan, not for D.R.C. [Democratic Republic of Congo], not for Myanmar,” she says. “The focus was always Israel.”

“I Was Hounded, Day In, Day Out. Bullied, hounded, with protection from nobody.”

International donors are complicit in #Hamas’ presence in #Gaza—and the key to its demise

Seth Frantzman hits the nail on the head on the incestuous and criminal relationship between the UN, UNRWA and other NGO's operating in Gaza. Behavior that would never be accepted in any other 'conflict' zone.

Hamas has exploited UN facilities, NGO's and civilian institutions in Gaza for decades. It is part of the DNA of Hamas to use every civilian site in Gaza for its own purposes.

Hamas wants headlines such as "Israeli airstrike on school" or "Israel raids hospital" because Hamas knows that the information appears to be on its side in a conflict that is as much about information warfare as it is about Hamas gunmen hiding out.

The international community prefers a code of silence when it comes to Hamas in Gaza.

The Silence is Deafening @UN

Even after the latest murder of 6 Israeli hostages, #UN has yet to condemn #Hamas 11 months after their bloody attack on #Israel.


The Jerusalem Post's editorial board tackles the ongoing crisis amid growing criticism of UN inaction:

UN, time to end your inaction and help bring home the remaining hostages

Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon has called on the president of the UN Security Council to convene and condemn Hamas for the murder of six Israeli hostages.

Danon noted that Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Alexander Lobanov, Almog Sarusi, and Ori Danino suffered for almost 11 months, as did their families and loved ones, with no sign of life being communicated, nor access granted to the Red Cross.

"These innocent people were brutally executed just a few days ago by Hamas terrorists. Their vile and heinous murders have outraged Israel and its people and should equally shock the conscience of the world," Danon wrote. "As our nation mourns the loss of these six beautiful lives, I call upon the Security Council to urgently convene a briefing to condemn Hamas in the strongest possible terms and to address the dire situation of the 101 hostages still held in captivity in Gaza. Despite the passage of nearly 11 months since the massacre of over 1,200 Israelis on October 7, the council has yet to condemn Hamas nor act decisively for the hostages."
