The Palestine Authority slams Kushner’s plan to dissolve UNRWA

Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’ office in Ramallah accused President Donald Trump’s senior adviser Jared Kushner of another “subversive plot to eliminate the Palestinian issue” by proposing to dissolve UNRWA. On Friday, Foreign Policy confirmed that Kushner, whom Trump has assigned with developing a Middle East peace plan, had proposed defunding the UN Relief and Works Agency, because it “perpetuates a status quo, is corrupt, inefficient and does not help peace.” He suggested transferring UNWRA funding to the governments hosting the refugees and given giving them status, thereby removing the central problem in the way of the peace process.

    Kudhners plan is very good. But of course the corrupt PA sees their money source breaking away. Irans currency is down and if UNRWA is closed where to get money from.

    It is the same if you abolish juke boxes and the mafia could not track the number of guests in a bar they “protect”, thus reducing the income of the “noble society”.

    Kushner has got to the heart of the matter; dissolve UNRWA as prelude to trim UN wings to get back to 1945

      UNHCR (the UN Refugees Agency) says there are 44,000 refugees par day, for a total of 68.5 millions in the whole World, and this UN acency is there to stay. They have a 7.7 billion dollars budget.

      Fake UNHWA is not part of the UNHCR, it is specifically aid for Islamics only, and most of the services it provides are not as for true refugees. Plus, no population in the world has his own UN agency.

        Are these His deeds? Do my words not benefit the one who goes straight?

        And the matter for which My people causes [Me] to rise as an enemy, because of the garment and the mantle that you strip from those who pass by confidently, who return from the war.

        The wives of My people you drive away from the house of her delights, from her infants-you take away My glory forever.

        Arise and go, for this is not the tranquility; in order to contaminate it, it forms bands, and the band is clarified.

          Seriously, your nurse provider should check whether you missed taking some of your medication. Your rambling post was totally incoherent.

    If Abbas doesn’t like it then it must be a good idea.

      Better bribe someone important make 50%-50% and save half.
      This guy António Guterres seems like convenient to talk too.
      He hates the US in general and Trump in particular even more.
      He was for not punishing the sexual assault of children by peacekeepers in the Central African Republic
      Definitely the guy to talk to!

    No, no, this bad idea is very much!
    There are thousands refugees from West Bank forced to refugee in the past in Gaza, and also many refugees from Gaza forced to refugee in the past in West Bank. These are suffering refugees.
    UNRWA was created in December 1949 only 69 years ago and working very well.
    Why to dissolve good UNRWA then?
    Better dissolve UNHCR and give all money to UNHWA!
    Money is important because Palestinian GDP comes from UNHWA.

      Not enough! UNRWA counts more than 5 million registered Palestinian refugees. UNHCR has a budget of 7.7 billion, which is 7700 millions. This gives less that $1500 per refugee per year not per month!

      Definitely US should contribute at least 1 trillion, if not more!

    End all funding of the PA and end the Israeli Arab conflict. The PA stands for PLO/Fatah?Hamas/Islamic Jihad/and the alphabet soup terrorist gangs that thrive because of the UN,US,EU funding.

    UNRWA the biggest welfare fraud in UN history or in history altogether.

    Finally, we have a President and Administration that, despite its shortcomings, is taking bold, realistic, but loving steps to resolve this Palestinian “refugee” issue and how it has been perpetuated as a sword against Israel.
