#1 Every dollar the US transfers to UNRWA is a dollar used to perpetuate this misery.

In strict compliance with the United Nation's 'global misery' business model. Without conflict, suffering and misery, there would be no need for a United Nations.

#2 Former UN ambassadors Thomas Pickering and Edward Perkins, who served under president George H.W. Bush; Madeline Albright and Bill Richardson, who served under president Bill Clinton; John Negroponte, who served under George W. Bush; and Samantha Power and Susan Rice who served under President Barack Obama,

Who's Who of the globalist / deep-state coterie.

This is my shocked face. /s

#3 Pickering and Negroponte made their bones in the Law of the Sea struggles that involved the State Department in the nineteen seventies. Active and intelligent young Foreign Service officers, over the years their vision has been clouded as they moved closer to the center of power in Washington. Now they are old and suffer from cataracts.

#4 ...You know, given the current leadership in DC and our representation at the UN, this is easy: Not one more damned dime until UNRWA turns over accurate, realistic numbers. I suspect Ambassador Haley would relish delivering that message.

#6 What is best in life?
To crush your enemies, to drive them before you, and to read their womanly letters of lamentation.

Pickering and Negroponte made their bones in the Law of the Sea struggles

If memory serves, the Convention on the Law of the Sea was a global freakout over the the cover story for the Glomar Explorer attempting to raise a Russian sub. World + Dog went nutso thinking the evil Americans going to hoover up all the manganese nodules off the entire seafloor, but all we really wanted was one teensy ballistic missile sub.
