Do you ask yourself sometimes if you are being downvoted for your opinion or because the source you linked is garbage? The Gazans government is under the rule of Hamas. So of course UNRWA are talking to "Hamas" if you define Hamas as the party ruling Gaza with no elections. This inflation of Hamas and the Qassam Brigades is quite worrisome, not to mention misguided and meant to misguide others. In many other discussions, people mean Hamas as in the milotary branch of it, which is fine, but you don't here. The "Hamas" members thtt UNWRA works with are doctors, civil servants, nurses, etc.

If you lived in Gaza and wanted to make a difference or work a government job, what options do you have? And does that make you a terrorist or militant? It's like saying Israelis deserve to die because Bibi is a piece of shit and they work under his governmental rule.

Often I wonder if people reaf the crap they link to, but that link is basically saying "UNWRA does its best to not associate with miltaynt groups, sends lists to Israel to vet, yet they totally do support the terrorists, okay?? Evidence? The lack of evidence is the evidence!"

Like gtfo of here /: what sort of crap is that? 😬
