Israel gave the dossier to major UNRWA donor countries just after the ICJ made their interim ruling regarding South Africa’s charge of genocide against Israel. U.K.’s Channel 4 claims it ‘contains no evidence’ for Israel’s allegations against UNRWA’s workers.
By ICH & Agencies
The story was presented by Channel 4’s Lindsey Hilsum who then posted it to her X account, formerly Twitter, along with the caption “We got hold of Israel’s dossier against UNRWA – why did the donors including the U.K. withdraw funding on such flimsy unproven allegations before an investigation?”
The allegations, which were detailed in a confidential Israeli intelligence brief originally reported on in the Wall Street Journal, involve 12 UNRWA employees who Israel claims were involved in the Hamas terrorist attacks on Israeli Gaza border communities on October 7.
According to Channel 4, the intelligence report “contains no evidence to support Israel’s explosive new claim other than stating, ‘From intelligence information, documents, and identity cards seized during the course of the fighting, it is now possible to flag around 190 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist operatives who serve as UNRWA employees. More than 10 UNRWA staffers took part in the events of October 7.’”

According to Juliette Touma, UNRWA’s director of communications, who was interviewed by Channel 4, employees and contractors are placed on a list that is given to Israel every year for approval. As recently as last May, according to Channel 4, all UNRWA workers had been vetted and approved by Israel.
Channel 4 reported that Israel gave the dossier to major UNRWA donor countries just after the ICJ made their interim ruling regarding South Africa’s charge of genocide against Israel.
The UNRWA is reportedly set to lose $65 million by the end of February as donors’ funding cuts take effect, imperiling the agency’s operations in Gaza and across the Middle East.
“We are going to be forced to make very tough decisions that humanitarian aid workers are not supposed to be forced to make,” she said.

What does the world expect from these ….types?
They do have a grubby history for this.
I don’t even bother paying attention on the grounds that I assume that whatever Israel, the collective West, and US Evil Empire and its news agencies, are lies. Fast and simple.
Given the rapid debunking (Thank God) of the pathetic, coordinated military-intelligence-media propaganda operations (now) infamously known as “40 Babies Beheaded!!!”, “Babies Cooked in Ovens!!”, “Mass Rape!!” etc., why would anyone be surprised if the suspicious UNRWA allegations were eventually proven pathetic, genocide-enabling, war propaganda as well?
Why bother with the pathological liars from isn’treal.
Nazi Zionist Israel is a vicious, deceitful, inhumanly racist cancer that must be destroyed.
We can expect the Israelis, the so-called chosen people, to behave despicably but why the Western nations, New Zealand, Australia etc etc have to do the same I cannot understand. They are behaving despicably on every level, from defunding UNRWA to not denouncing Israel’s utterly wicked actions in this continuing onslaught for daring to fight back against mightily armed Israel. On October 7 they attacked and defeated and killed Israeli army units and armed settlers. How many kibbutzim and partygoers did the Israeli gunships blast? What sort of decent people, anyway, would hold a raging all-night pop festival next door to a concentration camp of suffering refugees, men, womem and children. And the death rate on October 7 and since? Even using the supposed figure of 1200, it’s a ratio of 1200 : 26000
In reality the Hamas fighters probaby killed no more than 400 unarmed Israeli civilians, if that and the Palestinian figures do not include the bodies buried still under the rubble so we could imagine the truth is closer to 400 : 32000 so very likely, wouldn’t you clever Israelis agree , this would make a ratio of Israeli killed 1 : 80 Palestinians
And I will say it: this is similar or outdoes the Nazi-SS- Einsatzgruppen
No, it is NOT the time to be silent: only ONE nation bears the guilt for the horror of the Holocaust of the 6 million Jews and the 30 million Russian dead
Most of the world has NO reason to feel guilt: it was not their crime; it was not my crime. We have no good reason to support what Israel does. Those who do should bear the shame for generations. I can only wonder: is the support of Israel really about MONEY? GREED?
Israel is a Mafia of white supremacy built on lies, murder and theft supported by uninformed people such as US taxpayers.
“We can expect the Israelis, the so-called chosen people, to behave despicably but why the Western nations, New Zealand, Australia etc etc have to do the same I cannot understand.”
Not too complicated..the ‘western’ WASP (white Ang£o-$axon Protestant) nations imbibed their ethnic cu£ture on the Brutish Vampire’s imperia£ teat, and puritan Protestant fundamentalists had the brainwave back around 1580 that they must be one on theb ‘lost gtribes’ of the ‘chosen people’ of their ideological tribal-sectarian exclusivist bible.
This presumption smouldered away for a few genocidal centuries as Britannia built her ’empire upon which the sun never sets’ until Herzl (an Autro-Hungarian Jew) picked up the pseudoscientific cul-de-sac of racialised genetics, more rationalisation of tribal hubris than reasoned science based on evidence, welded it to the 19th century anti-imperial nationalisms as a false solution to the predicament of Jews under serial pigroms by these white supremacists down several millennia.
To curtail a saga, Israel was set up by the Anglo-French Sykes-Picot cartographers carving the Ottoman territories in 1916 and solidified by Balfour&Co the following year when it was used to induce Rot$chi£d’s financial clout with Wa££ $t supplying the lend-lease lifeline to see off their fellow Teutonic KKKaiser’s challenge.
After Adolf’s ($pon$ored genocidal drive to render Europe judenrein) defeat at Stalingrad the survivors were funnelled into Palestine to garrison Suez and the regions oil while consummating Adolf’s project and finalising his solution of using Jewish supremacists to divide and conquer not just the Arabs, but also the diaspora Jews who wished to retain their humanistic interpretations of the same scriptures.
‘New Zealand, Australia etc etc.. ‘ (Canada, U$A…) all have para££el genocidal histories against their indigenous peoples..and the beat goes on.
On January 6, 2021, Federal undercover operatives staged a riot by the capitol to be blamed on President Trump and his supporters and the results of this have been clear to anyone with half a brain- constant persecution and prosecution of Trump and his supporters as “insurrectionists”. The people that died as a result of J6 (five) were used against Trump, even though the deaths were the result of DC police actions. On October 7, 2023, Hamas went into Israel’s out skirted settler communities to take hostages and after a SEVEN HOUR military stand down by Israel, were met with deadly gunfire that killed BOTH hostage and hostage taker. How many Israelis were killed by their own government.? That is the key question, because taking people to be hostages is a lot more digestible to the world than “beheading babies and raping people”! There IS an element of “false flag” in O7. How many puppet strings were attached to it from Israel itself?
Who gives a rip if some Hamas liberation fighters had day jobs working for UNRWA? A guy’s gotta survive.
I don’t see anyone of any prominence advocating for the defunding of the American colleges and universities that graduated plenty of sociopathic and murderous Israeli Defense [sic] Forces’ soldiers.
The UNRWA story was pre-concocted, and its release was timed so that the Western media would be full of this story instead of the real story that was breaking at the same time, i.e. the ICJ ruling that Israel was committing genocide.
Isn’t it amazing how our media choreographs the narrative.
Isn’t it obvious that the reason behind all of this is the Jewish Lobby that dominates Western governments and populations? Who make up that lobby? The leaders of over 350 Jewish political organizations, a list of which can be seen at:
