| #4 "Erekat pointed out that after the Trump administration’s decision to halt funding to UNRWA, "more than 40 UN member states have made additional pledges, which means that they recognize the importance of services provided by UNRWA and its important role in maintaining regional stability." In other words, Trump proved that American support was never needed in the first place. Good job. |

| #1 The mandate of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Paleostinian Refugees (UNRWA) may not be renewed this year due to charges of corruption in the agency. It is not the charges of corruption, it is the actual corruption that is (or was) the problem. It was a good, long-running con but the marks have gotten tired. |
