“Twice in history, we have lost our national home precisely because the leaders of the generation were not able to sit with one and another and compromise. Each was right, yet with all their being right, they burnt the house down on top of us. I am proud of the ability to sit together with people with very different views from my own ([link removed](EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_6_16_2021_23_54)&mc_cid=fa7ea8d264&mc_eid=UNIQID) .”

The shoddy and questionable resolution of the UNHRC on Israel ([link removed](EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_6_16_2021_23_54)&mc_cid=fa7ea8d264&mc_eid=UNIQID)

At this point in time, we are all aware of the anti-Israel bias in the U.N. Human Rights Council (UNHRC). The number of anti-Israel resolutions adopted each year by the council surpasses those of infamous human-rights violators around the world. That statistic alone is enough to determine just how untrustworthy the UNHRC is.

It is therefore not surprising that on May 27, the Human Rights Council convened ([link removed](EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_6_16_2021_23_54)&mc_cid=fa7ea8d264&mc_eid=UNIQID) for its 30th special session on “the grave human rights situation in the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem” where they decided to launch a probe ([link removed](EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_6_16_2021_23_54)&mc_cid=fa7ea8d264&mc_eid=UNIQID) into war crimes in “the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and in Israel.”

Last month, Operation Guardian of the Walls was launched when Hamas indiscriminately launched 4,200 missiles into Israeli residential communities. According to the UN Charter, every nation has the right to defend its civilian population. The Biden administration pledged $235 million dollars in aid to rebuild Gaza, most of which will be given directly to the United Nations Relief Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).

In 2020, UNRWA listed its budget as being $806 million and it employed some 30,000 people. How does UNRWA operate? What is its underlying mission? How friendly is it with Hamas? Are our taxpayer dollars that will be delivered to UNRWA part of the problem or part of the solution to the ongoing crisis between Israel and the Palestinians?

Here to answer these questions and more is Asaf Romirowsky,Executive Director of Scholars for Peace in the Middle East.
About the speaker: Middle East historian Asaf Romirowsky is a Fellow at the Middle East Forum, a senior nonresident research fellow at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies (BESA) and a Professor [Affiliate] at the University of Haifa. Trained as a Middle East historian he holds a PhD in Middle East and Mediterranean Studies from King's College London, UK and has published widely on various aspects of the Arab-Israeli conflict and American foreign policy in the Middle East, as well as on Israeli and Zionist history.
