UN chief’s office slams ‘glorification of terrorism’ at Palestinian women’s center | |
2017-05-29 | |
"The United Nations ...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks... disassociated itself from the Center once it learned the offensive name chosen for it and will take measures to ensure that such incidents do not take place in the future," reads a statement from Stéphane Dujarric, front man for Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. "The glorification of terrorism, or the perpetrators of heinous terrorist acts, is unacceptable under any circumstances. The UN has repeatedly called for an end to incitement to violence and hatred as they present one of the obstacles to peace," the statement says. The UN no longer supports the center, Dujarric clarifies. "The United Nations support to this community ended last year and it has asked for the logo of UN Women to be removed immediately. Furthermore, the inauguration of the Center took place after the UN’s association with it." The center is located in the West Bank town of Burqa, and is named for Dalal Mughrabi, who took part in the 1978 Coastal Road Massacre. Mughrabi and several other Fatah bully boyz landed on a beach near Tel Aviv, hijacked a bus on Israel’s Coastal Road and killed 38 civilians, 13 of them children, and maimed over 70. | |
