You've Got to be Carefully Taught - Eric Guth 4Z1UG

2/8/2024

7 Comments

 
The problem with living in a different hemisphere from where I grew up is the assumption that all of you follow the same news that I do, from day to day.  The revelation that UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, a special agency created only for Arab refugees from Palestine, was complicit in the October 7th massacre of Jews in Israel, surprised politicians, educators, journalists, and the "elite" in the West.  For us living here in Israel, it was common knowledge that UNRWA was the only refugee agency that provided services to refugee descendants generations after the UNHCR - the UN Refugee Agency had done its job settling tens of millions of refugees around the World after World War 2.  It is common knowledge that UNRWA propagates the refugee myth, with the help of the West, that Arab refugees from Israel's war of independence, a defensive war, in 1948, would someday return "home" at the expense of the Jews.  ​
UNRWA is a proxy cover for Hamas in Gaza and Fatah in the West Bank.  The 1.6 billion dollar annual budget is subsidized by the United States and 66 donor nations, along with a dozens foreign aid agencies.  This money went to the training of a generation of Hamas foot soldiers in Gaza who participated in the October 7th pogrom.  These terrorists  were born in the Gaza strip, evacuated by Israel in 2005, and under Palestinian Arab control since then. This generation, like their parents and grandparents were "carefully taught" by UNRWA teachers that the Jews would eventually be destroyed and their students would one day return to their homes in Jaffa, Akko, and Ramla.  While Gaza has been independent of Israel since 2005, it has retained refugee camps.  This is also true in the West Bank areas controlled by the Palestinian Authority.   The "PA" could be building cities and towns under their rule, but instead maintain the refugee camps as hotbeds for spreading the jihadist terrorist goal of murdering all of us.  When they say, as they do that they would repeat October 7th, over and over, they mean it. 

Outraged UN officials have named 12 UNRWA Gaza employees who participated in the October 7th massacre, yet don't mention the Telegram group of 6500 Gaza teachers who praised the operation and its success at murdering Jewish men, women, children, and babies.  UNRWA teachers are the primary instrument for jihadist and anti-Israel teaching, their curriculum written by Hamas.  In fact, UNRWA in the Gaza strip is Hamas.  Nobody works in the strip for UNRWA without Hamas approval.  Common knowledge in Israel, but not in the rest of the World. 

Dr. Einat Wilf, a former IDF intelligence officer, policy adviser to Shimon Perez, and former Knesset member, speaks with Dan Senor on his Call Me Back podcast about the history of Arab violence against the Jews from the fall of the Ottoman Empire, after World War One, leading to October 7th.  She discusses the history of UNRWA from its beginnings to the present. Dr. Wilf is very articulate and provides a careful background, and perhaps a ray of hope, if Israel is allowed to complete its destruction of Hamas.

You've Got to be carefully Taught was a song written by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein for their musical South Pacific.  The duo defended this song, even when accused of communist sympathy, because this song represented their whole intention for their musical to begin with.  ​

Meanwhile, crime ridden American cities like Chicago are holding elections on a ceasefire in Gaza. My only hope is that the leaders of Israel don’t take any recourse or recommendations from this American government. Be safe Eric!

Let's not forget about UNICEF that for many years paid for the books used in Arab schools that portrayed Jews as barbaric creatures, worthy of inclusion in Der Sturmer. Just like in Kohelet, "there is nothing new under the sun."

This is very informative report bolsters my suspension that mainstream media in the US, supports a political agenda, rather than revelation of the whole factual truth.

US News agencies no longer put their own reporters in the field, but rely on stringers employed by Reuters and API. Both agencies have relied on Hamas operatives in Gaza who report to these agencies their "boots in the ground" reports. That is why they rely on the Hamas Health Agency for casualty numbers that seems to know for certain the exact number of casualties, when we in Israel still do not know the exact number of dead and missing since Oct 7th pogrom.

The Jerusalem Post, Israel's "flagship" English language newspaper also relies on Reuters for news outside of Israel that is spun to the far left. Its own reporters offer "analysis" on its front page. Frankly, I want just the facts so I can make up my own mind. This seems to be the new journalism, that the general public is too stupid to analyze the facts on their own and must rely on reporters to interpret the news based on their commercial sponsor's political bend.

For balanced look at this Gaza war see all of my news sources that I cite. I keep adding new sources as I find them.

The unmasking of UNRWA is providing Israeli leadership with the political will to remove UNRWA Gaza and Judea & Samaria.
