"Bloody Blinken,” “Secretary of Genocide”, “Butcher of Gaza.” “You are a liar! You’ve lied to Congress & you’ve lied to the American public!"
"He's responsible for the deaths of all of Gaza, & people in Yemen, Iraq, Syria." “Shame on you!”
The protesters were handcuffed & taken out.

Interview: Francesca Albanese on the failure of the UN system to stop Israel's genocide:
"Many states are not stopping Israel because of political convenience, ignorance, & racism.
"Our govts are violating international law the moment they do not use their influence to stop the genocide.
"The responsibility is upon us as ordinary citizens to hold our govts accountable. Justice for Palestine starts at home."

Analysis: Israel’s ban on UNRWA is a "devastating attack on the very existence of the Palestinian people." The US alone can prevent it. ~Tamer Qarmout
"UNRWA was established by the UN after the 1948 Nakba to protect & assist Palestinians ethnically cleansed from their homes. It provides education, healthcare, social services & emergency relief to people living in refugee camps in the Palestinian territory, Jordan, Syria & Lebanon."

Analysis: "International law laid to rest"
“What Israel has done is maintained an occupation, an apartheid regime" paid for by international funding.
Israeli ministers can call for settlements in Gaza only because Israel’s trade ties continue to be normal.
“Where are those arrest warrants, sanctions, the questioning of whether Israel can be a member in good standing?"

Report: Israel's banning of UNRWA is part of its ethnic cleansing in Palestine
“This is another serious assault by Israel on the international rule of law & the international system itself. It is completely illegal.
The far-right Israeli politicians have said that the "land from the River Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea is for the Jews & by implication there should be no Palestinians there”.
UNRWA has been a barrier to that ethnic cleansing

"Albanese was responding to an earlier statement from the UN humanitarian chief Joyce Msuya warning that the entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying under Israel’s siege."
