Israel’s UNRWA ban a ‘new level in war against UN’, Palestinian envoy says
www.aljazeera.com
The Knesset passed a bill on Monday banning the UN agency for Palestine refugees from operating in Israel.

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
