What part of framing people by skin color,
and demanding exclusive Arab domination over the
entire Middle East and North Africa - is solidarity with human rights?

Camera pans in on monument in Nablus dedicated to terrorist Abu Sharakh.
Text on monument: "Martyr leader, Naif Abu Sharakh, commander of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, leader of the Martyrdom-seekers"
It's really just so creepy. This is the same moslem social order that puts women in shame sacks, that reviles women, ''honor'' kills them, but is quick to further exploit them with ''martyrdom seeking' plaques.

Two terrorists fleeing the scene of a shooting attack find themselves running for their lives as their vehicle suddenly catches fire.
Two terrorists fleeing the scene of a shooting attack on a bus in the Jordan Valley were forced to abandon their vehicle and try to douse out the flames engulfing their clothes as the car caught fire.
In a video documentation of the event, the vehicle can be seen igniting in flames as it makes a left turn while trying to avoid law enforcement. The two terrorists had just fired at a bus traveling on Route 90 in the Jordan Valley, near the village of Beka'ot.
NY Times cuts ties with freelancer who called for killing Jews ‘like Hitler did’
Fady Hanona lost his gig as a fixer in the Gaza Strip after pro-Israel watchdog Honest Reporting exposed the violent posts.
“The New York Times had worked with this freelance reporter only in recent weeks. We are no longer doing so,” a spokesperson for the Gray Lady told The Post.
The Times did not respond to inquiries about whether Hanona was vetted and how many articles he contributed to.

“The freelancer also wrote that “Jews are sons of the dogs…I am in favor of killing them and burning them like Hitler did. I will be so happy.”

[ Pay me, Pay me, Pay me, the only people on the planet who are also a charity for themselves ]
This morning, angry protesters burned tires at the entrance of UNRWA headquarters in Gaza City, upset at the lack of compensation for the 2014 Gaza war.
As of this writing, no Western media has even mentioned this. The main UN agency that provides aid to Palestinians is shut down by Palestinians themselves, potentially affecting tens of thousands, but it doesn't fit the narrative so it doesn't get covered.
The last such protest in Gaza was in April. But other protests against UNRWA happen often, especially in Lebanon. And they are equally underrerported.
Notice the amount of security that UNRWA uses in Gaza. Heavy metal gates, with spikes on top, and barbed wire atop that.
This is to protect UNRWA from the people it serves!

Palestinian officials, bankers and diplomats fraudulently received Covid aid payments intended to help the poorest West Bank families.
A report by the Palestinian Authority (PA) State Audit Bureau found that some beneficiaries of the £15 million Covid relief fund — for “the neediest and most marginalised” — were working from home on £4,000 a month.
They were still in well-paid jobs at PA ministries, universities, banks and telecommunications firms.
Although the fund was set up by the local private sector and Arab donors, the revelations raise serious questions about Britain’s involvement in propping up the notoriously corrupt PA.
Since 2008, the British taxpayer has given the PA regime about £640 million, mainly through donations for spending on health and education. On top of this, since 2011, £65 million has gone to support the PA security services, the brutality of which the JC disclosed last week.
The Palestinian audit found that up to six members of the same family had received Covid payments, when only one was allowed.
Aid was also given to people registered as directors of profitable companies or who had large shareholdings in stock exchange listed enterprises.
The corruption of the scheme — known as Waqfet Ezz, or the “Stand with Dignity” Fund — has been ignored by the international media.
Health analyst Jehad Harb, who leads investigations for Aman, a British-funded, anti-corruption NGO based in Ramallah, told the JC: “They started distributing Waqfet Ezz when Covid brought the economy to a halt, and vast numbers made applications for aid. The need was huge.
“But some of those who asked for money were not needy at all and had not suffered from the crisis. It’s clear they should not have got help. Some officials arranged to give fund money to their relatives.”
There had, he added, been few attempts to check the status of recipients and there was no reliable record of needy Palestinians. “We do not have any data infrastructure,” he said.
The PA set up the fund in April 2020, funding it with compulsory contributions from local companies which were reeling from the pandemic.
The demands caused hardship and resentment in the private sector. One Palestinian businessman, speaking on condition of anonymity, told the JC: “It was crazy.
“They were forcing us to give to this fund, adding still further to the pressure on the private sector, instead of supporting us. Meanwhile PA officials were getting paid their usual salaries for sitting at home.”
The disclosure of apparent corruption was, he added, not surprising, but still left him outraged. “Everywhere you look there is corruption, because there is no accountability,” he said.
The businessman added that in addition to financial corruption, the West Bank was also affected by widespread cronyism.
Under the system known in Arabic as wasta, or “who you know”, members of the ruling Fatah party, or those close to the PA leadership, benefit from many kinds of favouritism.
He cited an example in March last year, when the PA began to distribute Covid vaccines. The first 12,000 doses had gone not to the most vulnerable but to security officials, the President and Prime Minister’s staff, executive committee members of the PLO and even the Palestinian football squad.
A statement by Aman said that vaccines were being given “outside the framework of a clear and published plan and within the framework of patronage and connections that seek the private interest at the expense of the public interest”.
