President Donald Trump signed an executive order to defund the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) and remove the U.S. Human Rights Council.
It’s not hyperbole to say that UNRWA is a part of Hamas.
From the video:
WILL SCHARF, ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND WHITE HOUSE STAFF SECRETARY: In light of numerous actions taken by a number of bodies of the United Nations, which exhibited deep anti American bias, we have an executive order prepared for your attention that would withdraw the United States from the UN Human Rights Council, would withdraw the United States from the UNWRA, which is a refugee organization and would also review American involvement in UNESCO, which has also exhibited anti-American bias more generally. The executive order calls for a review of American involvement and funding in the UN in light of the wild disparities in levels of funding.TRUMP: So I’ve always felt that the UN has tremendous potential. It’s not living up to that potential right now. It really isn’t. Hasn’t for a long time. There are great hopes for it. But it’s not being well run, to be honest, and they’re not doing the job. A lot of these conflicts that we’re working on, should be settled or at least we should have some help in settling them. We never seem to get help. That should be the primary purpose of the UN, the United Nations. And again, it’s got great potential. And based on the potential, we’ll continue to go along with it, but they got to get their act together.REPORTER: What would they need to do to get their act together?TRUMP: Well, you got to be fair to countries that deserve fairness. Some countries, as you know, that are outliers, that are very bad, and they’re being almost preferred as countries to those that do their job and are doing a good job, and they have to really…they’re going to end up losing a lot of countries. They’re going to end up losing their credibility like other organizations, and then they’re going to be nothing.The potential of the United Nations, and not everybody agrees with me on this, the potential of the United nations is fantastic if properly run. So we’ll see what happens.REPORTER: How much money are you willing to take away from them?TRUMP: Well, we’re taking away a little bit, but we’re not looking to take away money. This is so important that we’re really, as you know, the United Nations is largely funded by us and it shouldn’t be. It should be funded by everybody. But we’re disproportionate as we always seem to be. But it’s something that if it ever lived up to the potential right now, does it have that power?
The United Nations has a habit of putting awful countries on the Human Rights Council and Women’s Rights councils. Countries like Iran, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, and Cuba should not have seats on those councils.
The United Nations has an anti-American attitude, but it despises Israel. You could probably smell the antisemitism in the UN building.
Vijeta has always done a great job reporting on the UN abuses, especially towards Israel.
