In the aftermath of the events on October 7, the Biden administration persuaded Israel to lift the blockade on Gaza promising aid would not fall into the hands of Hamas, facilitating the entry of international aid.
Secretary of State Blinken assured that if Hamas obstructed the delivery of humanitarian assistance to civilians, the administration would swiftly condemn such actions and take measures to prevent their recurrence.
A new report by Daniel Greenfield of Frontpage Magazine shows Hamas fighters have hijacked numerous aid convoys and assaulted civilians who attempt to stop them.
Biden’s National Security Spokesman John Kirby denied humanitarian convoys were being hijacked despite numerous videos captured by both Gaza civilians and the Israel Defense Department. Kirby went on to say that UN partners were monitoring aid with diligence, but what exactly are they doing besides denying it’s happening?
In Case You Missed It…. Stop US Aid Funding Palestinian Terrorists!
In mid-October, the UNRWA UN aid agency which is dedicated to Palestinian settlers is staffed by Hamas, and as you’ve seen in previous posts, is guilty of promoting hate and violence in K-12 schools, tweeted that they did receive reports of a group of people with trucks remove fuel and medical equipment from an agency compound in Gaza City but immediately deleted the tweet.
In late December, the UNRWA began to argue that there were no hijackings by Hamas and that all accusations were part of a disinformation campaign.
The taxpayer-funded USAID who is responsible for managing the humanitarian aid to Gaza, currently under investigation by Congress over aid to Afghanistan going directly to terrorists, is refusing to list the names of the non-governmental organizations that are receiving taxpayer-funded US humanitarian aid that is designated to non-combatant Gaza refugees.
Biden's Gaza Aid and the Shadows of Terrorism
In the wake of President Biden's commitment to providing humanitarian aid to Gaza, concerns have emerged regarding the efficacy of safeguarding these resources from falling into the hands of groups like Hamas.
The promised $100 million for reconstruction evokes cautionary parallels with instances where funds intended for rebuilding inadvertently fueled the rise of militant organizations, reminiscent of the situation in Afghanistan. These worries are compounded by the appointment of Sigrid Kaag as the UN Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for aid to Gaza, who faces accusations of funding terrorists.
Sigrid Kaag, formerly known as Sigrid Al-Qaq, has faced accusations of funding terrorists due to her association with the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) government. Her appointment as the UN Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for aid to Gaza has raised concerns, particularly in light of her alleged involvement in supporting the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a group linked to acts of terrorism.
In 2019, Rina Shnerb tragically lost her life in a bombing incident, and one of the terrorists accused of aiding the attack had connections to a non-profit financed by the Dutch government. Despite warnings, Kaag claimed ignorance of these connections. Geert Wilders criticized Kaag for being photographed with terrorist Arafat and supporting Palestinian terrorists.
The Biden administration's support for Kaag's appointment, despite her controversial background, has drawn criticism. The administration's focus on strengthening the Palestinian Authority, despite its involvement in the October 7 massacres, raises questions about aid distribution in the region. The State Department acknowledged providing over $110 million in humanitarian assistance since October 7, prompting concerns about the unintended funding of terrorism.
Critics argue that reevaluating aid policies is essential to prevent inadvertently supporting terrorist activities.
