Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

So we shouldn't interfere then, and let them buy their own weapons with their own money?
We continued to fund UNRWA right up until we found out they were literally terrorists. I have no problem continuing to fund Israel with my tax dollars because they are most certainly not.
nice whataboutism, still didn't answer the question though
lol, lmao even
Argue the point not the person.
Wasn't it about 0.04% of UNRWA who were accused of being involved in the terror attack? Even if the accusations turn out to be true*, your claim that "UNRWA are literally terrorists" is about as accurate as saying that all Israelis are terrorists. Because some Israelis most certainly are.
I'm not trying to convince you, because you clearly haven't used rational thinking to arrive at your perspective. But you could at least try to make your argument a little bit more credible.
*They're not true. According to Channel 4, the intelligence report "contains no evidence to support Israel's claim."
Huh. Crazy that the US would defend UNRWA without evidence. So either the entire US government is wrong, or you're spreading misinformation.
Would love to see credible source backing up your outlandish claims.
Ok yeah, source for the number of people in UNRWA is UNRWA. Source for the number of people accused is Israel. Source for the Channel 4 findings is....Channel 4. Was there any fact in particular you ~~don't want to be true~~ take issue with?
The US government didn't say that all of UNRWA are terrorists. Only you did that.
