The United Nations has reversed its stance on one of the most contentious and bloody incidents of the recent Israel Defense Forces operation in Gaza, saying that an IDF mortar strike that killed 43 people on January 6 did not hit one of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency schools after all.
It seems that the UN has been under pressure to put the record straight after doubts arose that the school had actually been targeted. Maxwell Gaylord, the UN humanitarian coordinator in Jerusalem, said Monday that the IDF mortar shells fell in the street near the compound, and not on the compound itself.
Gaylord said that the UN "would like to clarify that the shelling and all of the fatalities took place outside and not inside the school."
UNRWA, an agency whose sole purpose is to work with Palestinian refugees, said in response Tuesday that it had maintained from the day of attack that the wounded were outside of the school compound. UNRWA said that the source of the mistake in recent weeks had originated with a separate branch of the United Nations.
- TOO BAD IT TOOK SO LONG FOR THEM TO SET THE RECORD COMPLETELY STRAIGHT.
- AND TOO BAD THE MSM HAS A PREDISPOSITION TO BELIEVE ANTI-ZIONISTS AND ANTI-AMERICANS.
THAT'S PART OF THE REASON A LIE TRAVELS AROUND THE WORLD FIVE TIMES BEFORE THE TRUTH HAS A CHANCE TO PUT ITS PANTS ON.
