Back on topic................. Not sure why he's shocked at this. This is not the first time UNRWA chief urges countries to reconsider ‘shocking’ decision to pull funding Commissioner-general of UNRWA Philippe Lazzarini urges countries to reconsider their suspension of funding to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, saying that their decision threatens the “ongoing humanitarian work” in Gaza. Lazzarini’s request comes after nine countries announced that they were pulling funding due to alleged involvement by several staff members in Hamas’s October 7 terror onslaught in southern Israel. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/unrwa-chief-urges-countries-to-reconsider-shocking-decision-to-pull-funding/

Here's how its used in real life from Anne Frank org they know more than most. Nowadays, the word Zionist is often used as a swearword. As a negative label. Many Palestinians and supporters of the Palestinian cause no longer distinguish between the words 'Jew', 'Israeli' and 'Zionist'. That is not correct. Most Jews do not live in Israel. Not every inhabitant of Israel is Jewish; there are also many non-Jews living in Israel. And not all Jewish Israelis are 'settlers' who want to conquer more and more Palestinian land. The vast majority of Jews believe that the State of Israel should continue to exist. But many Jews, both living in Israel and elsewhere, are in favour of a Palestinian state alongside Israel as a possible solution to the conflict. To cut a long story short: although many Jews identify with Zionism, there are still many different points of view. That is reason enough not to mix up the words 'Jew', 'Israelis' and 'Zionists'. https://www.annefrank.org/en/topics/antisemitism/are-all-jews-zionists/

Its gaining momentum, the US, Australia, Italy, Canada, Finland, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany have also suspended additional funding to the UN agency and now the UK. UNRWA claims: UK halts aid to UN agency over allegation staff helped Hamas attack The UK government said it was "appalled" by Israel's allegations. The US, Australia, Italy, Canada, Finland, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany have also suspended additional funding to the UN agency. Created in 1949, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, UNRWA, is the biggest UN agency operating in Gaza. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68104203

UNRWA deputy chief @LeniStenseth went to Gaza in June 2021 to pledge allegiance to Hamas chief murderer and rapist Yahya Sinwar. To appease him, she fired her Gaza director Mathias Schmale for having said on TV that IDF strikes were precise, and she condemned his remarks. June 2021: Hamas made UNRWA fire their Gaza rep for saying on TV that IDF strikes were precise. Then Deputy Chief @LeniStenseth met Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar and “affirmed her solidarity.” She called her rep’s remarks “indefensible.” https://twitter.com/UNWatch/status/1750933355846127811

Israel and Hamas fight house-to-house battles across Gaza

This is good to see, not something the Hamas apologists would like to admit to. It needs more than a few hundred though. ‘Down with Hamas’: IDF publishes footage of Gazans protesting terror group rule Footage published by the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, known by its acronym COGAT, claims to show hundreds of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip calling for the end of the Hamas terror group’s rule. “Down with Hamas,” Palestinians chant, according to COGAT. The video was filmed yesterday at a humanitarian corridor set up by the Israeli army in the Khan Younis area. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/down-with-hamas-idf-publishes-footage-of-gazans-protesting-terror-group-rule/ -
Israel and Hamas fight house-to-house battles across Gaza

Who cares about your rabbit? How many times do you want to mention him? Must be coming up to a dozen at least now? More off topic nonsense from you to distract from the daily updates -
Your getting bogged down by Polls @Brickleberry Who cares what they were before Oct 7th. If your going to be so reliant on them then the ones after Oct 7th that are import regarding a 2 state solution now. Palestinians: Just 17.2% want a 2 state solution. 74.7 want “Palestinian state from the river to the sea.” A Nov. 14 survey by a West Bank polling firm asked Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank what kind of state they wanted to establish: one state for two peoples garnered the support of 5.4 per cent of respondents; a two-state solution was supported by 17.2 per cent; but the clear-winner, with 74.7 per cent in favour, was a “Palestinian state from the river to the sea.” https://nationalpost.com/opinion/new-poll-shows-palestinians-are-the-impediment-to-peace-not-israels-war Israelis: Just 25% want a 2 state solution. 65% oppose it. Gallup poll between Oct. 17 and Dec. 3. One in four Israeli adults currently support the existence of an independent Palestinian state, while most (65%) oppose it. https://news.gallup.com/poll/547760/life-israel-oct-charts.aspx

Thanks for letting us know you post on here when drunk. This will sober you up if you've had a tipple now though UK says it has ‘considerable concerns’ about ICJ ruling, rejects genocide accusation “We respect the role and independence of the ICJ. However… we have considerable concerns about this case, which is not helpful in the goal of achieving a sustainable ceasefire,” a Foreign Office spokesperson said in a statement. “Israel has the right to defend itself against Hamas in line with IHL [international humanitarian law],” the spokesperson added. “Our view is that Israel’s actions in Gaza cannot be described as genocide, which is why we thought South Africa’s decision to bring the case was wrong and provocative.” https://www.timesofisrael.com/uk-says-it-has-considerable-concerns-about-icj-ruling-rejects-genocide-accusation

No ceasefire, report in one months time on what they have done to address measures below them. Court also states that Hamas must release all hostages with no pre conditions. Provisional measures ruled by the judges of the ICJ: Israel shall : * take all measures to avoid breach of genocide treaty. * insure that the IDF does not commit offences of genocide treaty. * take all measures to prevent and punish those committing incitement to genocide. * take immediate measure to provide humanitarian aid. * take all measure to preserve evidence. * submit a report - in one month - describe its action to follow the provisions measures.

Anyone who is afraid of the ICC investigating war crimes is obviously guilty of them, and this is precisely why Israel won't allow any investigations. You don't need to co-operate with the ICC investigations, if there is evidence the ICC will go ahead and investigate anyway, which it is. It is investigating both Palestinians and Israelis since 2021. Oh you forgot, the Palestinians also refuse to co-operate. Putin did not co-operate, he has an arrest warrant out
