Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I legit don’t understand how they can block a UN agency? Like, what? Is that legal - I know they’re killing UN peacekeepers which should also be illegal but this seems a step even beyond that. Can countries just ban UN agencies from working there?

"Materially supports terrorism" Okay fed, what does that material support look like? Got any sources, or does said source boil down to made-it-the-fuck-up?

Is it that UNRWA teaches kids in refugee camps while their parents are fighting for their nation's liberation? That a UN agency specifically carved out of the broader refugee relief organizations (at Israel's insistence) is one of the biggest "domestic" employers of Palestinians? Maybe that a lot of said Palestinian workers are the survivors of past Israeli genocidal campaigns, and therefore, sympathetic to the suffering of their people?

If you are an actual person interested in learning, please read "The Hundred Years War on Palestine" and "The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine". Otherwise, do the world a favor, and off yourself. Maybe join the IOF you love so much and get merc'd by a Hezbollah missile
