OfCourseNot , in Journal still can't confirm January story about UN agency for Palestinians
@OfCourseNot@fedia.io avatar

All aid workers around the world don't have a choice but to collaborate with 'militant groups', gangs, dictators, mafia, warlords, cartels... if they have to make a deal with the devil himself to be able to help some children be damned sure they're gonna.

Having their ranks infiltrated is nothing new to aid orgs either (remember that sexual abuse scandal not long ago) or any other organization really, specially those that try to do good. Cutting the aid because an organization isn't perfectly invulnerable is imo utterly stupid.

So I don't care much for those proofs, as I think the facts are most certainly true (to a degree) but NORMAL. The way they are interpreted and used as an excuse to cut the aid is absolute bullshit.

In this case they never collaborated with Hamas though. It’s pretty wild that despite a thorough investigation of UNRWA basically nothing came up.

OfCourseNot ,
@OfCourseNot@fedia.io avatar

I meant 'collaborate' as in having talks or meetings, paying a 'tax', playing by their rules... nothing that leaves much of a record.

'Ties with militant groups' is vague enough so many people will read 'on the terrorists' payroll'. And on time some 'proof' like phone calls, pictures in the same place with a 'militant group' member, or handing them some material aid, going to the same mosquee...

The thing is unless they're able to articulate more concrete accusations I wouldn't even ask for proof, proof of what? I mean I have a bunch of cousins I barely met when I was a child, and no clue what they've been up to these ~30 years... I might have some 'ties' to 'militant groups' too, who knows?

Linkerbaan OP ,
@Linkerbaan@lemmy.world avatar

True. But in this case they alleged 12 UNRWA members to have participated in the attack as well. Which is more than just a vague claim but a very specific one. So now we can demand NYT and WSJ proof for their claims.

OfCourseNot ,
@OfCourseNot@fedia.io avatar

Yeah we should expect proof of this kind of claims, having to demand it only shows how low the bar is.
But even IF they can prove it, and that's a big if, twelve people among such a massive organization would still be a nothingburger unless they've infiltrated the highest ranks.

sunzu , in UK Finance Worker Steals £75,000 From Dead Clients To Fund Gambling Addiction And Lavish Lifestyle

How much lifestyle can a person really get out of 75k lol

A year of middle class life at best

some_guy ,

When it’s all profit on top of your existing finances, I think you can have a pretty good time with $75k. But I agree, it’s not anywhere near the type of fraud we’re used to reading about when white-collar crimes grab a headline. I’d blow through it in a few months or less.

sunzu ,

You ain't wrong but the fact that he can't quit his job is all I need to know about this crime lol

Wake me up when elites start doing time for their crime
