US To Pay United Nations Billions

/4 Comments/in , , /by

The Trump administration will send an initial payment toward billions in overdue United Nations dues within weeks.

U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Mike Waltz told Fox News Digital the payment comes with strings attached. He rejected claims that America bears responsibility for the organization’s cash crisis.

“The United States pays to the U.N. system more than 180 countries combined,” Waltz said. “We have historically been the largest supporter of the U.N., but under President Trump, we’re demanding reform.”

Waltz said the administration’s pressure has already produced results. The U.N. agreed to cut nearly 3,000 headquarters positions and approved its first budget reduction in 80 years. The organization also plans to reduce global peacekeeping forces by 25%.

The U.S. owes roughly $2.19 billion to the U.N.’s regular budget as of early February, according to Reuters. America also carries an additional $2.4 billion in unpaid peacekeeping assessments and $43.6 million for U.N. tribunals. (Read more from “US To Pay United Nations Billions” HERE)

Trump Blasts United Nations for ‘Funding an Assault on Western Countries and Borders’ with Mass Migration

/2 Comments/in , , /by

The United Nations is “funding an assault on Western countries,” President Donald Trump said to the U.N. annual convention on Tuesday.

In his address, the president accused weak western nations of destroying their own countries through mass migration with the U.N. playing a central role.

“The number one political issue of our time [is] the crisis of uncontrolled migration,” he exclaimed. “Your countries are being ruined,” he added. “The United Nations is funding an assault on western countries and their borders.

The president then laid out the material support that the United Nations gave to these invading illegals who flooded border by the hundreds of millions all across the world.

“In 2024, the U.N. budgeted $372 million in cash assistance to support… migrants journeying into the United States,” the president said from the podium. “The U.N. also provided food, shelter, transportation, and debit cards to illegal aliens on the way to infiltrate our southern border.” (Read more from “Trump Blasts United Nations for ‘Funding an Assault on Western Countries and Borders’ with Mass Migration” HERE)

IDF Claims Killed Gaza Journalist Was Hamas Member as UN, EU Demand Independent Investigation

/67 Comments/in , /by

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said Monday that Anas al-Sharif, a veteran Al Jazeera correspondent killed in Gaza City over the weekend, was a member of Hamas’ military wing and received a salary from the group. The claim, made amid mounting global condemnation of the strike, comes as the European Union and United Nations call for an independent investigation into the killing of al-Sharif and five other journalists.

Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani, the IDF’s international spokesman, stated that “current intelligence” showed al-Sharif was “the head of a Hamas terrorist cell” and had been involved in coordinating rocket attacks on both Israeli civilians and soldiers. The IDF did not provide details on the nature of the intelligence or public evidence supporting the allegation.

The strike, which took place Sunday near Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital, also killed Al Jazeera correspondent Mohammed Qraiqea, cameramen Ibrahim Zaher, Moamen Aliwa, and Mohammed Noufal, along with freelance journalist Mohammad al-Khaldi. The IDF declined to comment on any alleged affiliations of the other reporters killed in the incident.

International reaction was swift. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas urged Israel to provide “clear evidence” for its claims about al-Sharif’s ties to Hamas. United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres called for an “independent and impartial investigation,” noting that at least 242 journalists have been killed in Gaza since the current war began. UN spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric stressed that “journalists and media workers must be respected, they must be protected, and they must be allowed to carry out their work freely, free from fear and free from harassment.”

Al Jazeera has rejected Israel’s claims outright, accusing the IDF of deliberately targeting its staff in Gaza. The network released a statement calling the killing of al-Sharif and his colleagues “a direct attack on press freedom” and “part of a systematic campaign to silence journalists.”

A posthumous message, reportedly written by al-Sharif in April in case of his death, was published on his social media account Monday morning. In it, he urged the public “not to forget Gaza” and warned of the dangers facing those reporting from the conflict zone.

The attack came just days after Israel announced plans to take full control of Gaza City and relocate approximately one million Palestinians currently sheltering there to the south of the territory. The decision, and the broader military campaign, have drawn criticism from multiple countries, including some of Israel’s closest allies.

Since the start of the war, Israel has barred most foreign journalists from independently entering Gaza, except for a limited number of press tours arranged under military supervision.

UN Warns of “Classroom a Day” Death Toll as Gaza Children Face War, Starvation, and Aid Blockades

/1 Comment/in , /by

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has reached devastating new heights, with the United Nations reporting that an average of 28 children are dying every day due to ongoing bombardment, severe malnutrition, and restricted access to aid. That figure — the equivalent of a full classroom — highlights what the UN has called an unfolding catastrophe for an entire generation.

In a stark warning shared Tuesday, the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) described the daily toll as “death by bombardments, death by malnutrition and starvation, and death by lack of aid and vital services.”

According to UNICEF and other aid agencies, children in Gaza are in desperate need of food, clean water, medical care, and protection. “More than anything,” the agency said, “they need a ceasefire, NOW.”

Since the start of the conflict on October 7, 2023, following a surprise Hamas attack on southern Israel, the reported death toll in Gaza has surpassed 60,000 people, with more than 150,000 wounded, according to data from local health authorities.

The blockade and bombardment have led to 188 starvation-related deaths, including 94 children, amid what UN officials have described as a “man-made famine.”

For surviving children, the crisis has robbed them of any sense of normalcy or safety.

Since March 2, Israeli authorities have closed border crossings into Gaza, allowing only 86 trucks of aid per day, which accounts for just 14% of the minimum 600 trucks needed daily to meet basic needs, according to Gaza’s Government Media Office.

International pressure has pushed Israel to announce limited “humanitarian pauses” and conduct airdrop operations, but residents say the efforts have made little difference. On the ground, desperate civilians reportedly fight over scattered rations, with images showing crushed food tins and chaotic crowds at drop zones.

While the humanitarian community warns of starvation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected those claims, stating: “There is no policy of starvation in Gaza, and there is no starvation in Gaza. We enable humanitarian aid throughout the duration of the war.”

Former U.S. President Donald Trump openly disagreed with Netanyahu’s assessment, citing recent images of emaciated children. “Those children look very hungry,” he said last week.

Israel continues to assert that Hamas is interfering with aid distribution, allegedly diverting supplies for its own use. However, the United Nations has pushed back, stating there is no evidence of systematic looting and that when aid is permitted to flow at adequate levels, diversion largely ceases.

New York School Turns to United Nations to Teach 5th Graders About ‘Equity’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A group of middle schoolers in New York were taught about “equity” versus “equality” using resources from the United Nations, according to lesson plans obtained by a parental rights group.

Fifth graders from Herricks Middle School in Long Island were instructed on the differences between equity and equality while on a field trip to Herricks High School in December. The lesson was heavily based on materials from the U.N., according to a document obtained by Parents Defending Education and shared with The Daily Wire.

“The theme of Educational Equity is taken from the [U.N. Sustainable Development Goal 4] in providing educational equity across the developing world,” a document from the school with links to U.N. resources said. “Using the goals of the UN to evaluate the steps thus far to achieve their goals the following research was explored for students to create their own projects to showcase what is being done across the developing world to meet the UN goals and how the UN is supporting the achievement of those goals.”

Parents Defending Education obtained the document after it filed a public records request for documents on the lesson after the school posted on its Facebook page that some fifth-grade students had learned about the difference between equity and equality while on a trip to the high school.

While some of the materials address the plight of education in places like Africa, the concept of equity in education has been utilized by some teachers to push politically charged activism in the classroom. As highlighted by Parents Defending Education, one of the aims of the U.N.’s sustainable development goal four is to promote “global citizenship education” around the world, and many of the materials focus on climate change.

U.N. Working With Banks in Covert Effort to Undermine American Agriculture, Destroy Food Industry

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A startling report from NewsAddicts suggests that global elites withi the United Nations are working in collusion with banks to undermine the American farming industry, raising concerns among officials from 12 U.S. states. The alleged partnership involves the use of the U.N.’s “environmental, social, and corporate governance” (ESG) criteria, which, according to the report, is wielded by banks to score and penalize farmers based on adherence to certain ideological principles.

Farmers who fall short of meeting the U.N.’s ESG standards reportedly face severe consequences, with their accounts being closed without notice and in complete secrecy. The criteria in question are often associated with the U.N.’s “Net Zero” agenda, a global initiative promoted by the World Economic Forum (WEF) to achieve carbon neutrality. Critics argue that this agenda, while environmentally focused, may jeopardize traditional farming practices and prioritize alternative energy sources like wind turbines and solar panels over conventional methods such as diesel fuel.

The U.N.’s involvement in this alleged campaign against American farmers is said to be channeled through the “Net Zero Banking Alliance” (NZBA). According to the report, agriculture commissioners from 12 states have accused major U.S. banking corporations of contributing to rising food prices and reducing availability by aligning with the NZBA. Currently, we are facing a global food shortage.

The United Nation’s woke agenda poses a significant threat to the global food security system.

Outgoing Senior UN Official Calls for One-State Solution, Slams U.S., Israel: ‘Chilling Words’

/1 Comment/in , /by

A high-ranking United Nations official has retired after calling for a one-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict. In his letter, the official wrote on what he called “essential points” regarding the war between Israel and Hamas terrorists.

In what was described as his “last official communication” as the director of the New York Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, Craig Mokhiber sent an Oct. 28 letter to Volker Türk of Austria, the U.N. high commissioner for human rights, detailing what he believes a “U.N.-norm-based position” on the war would look like.

In what critics are calling comments devoid of historic fact, Mokhiber called for a one-state solution, which could mean the end of the Jewish state.

“We must support the establishment of a single, democratic, secular state in all of historic Palestine, with equal rights for Christians, Muslims and Jews, and, therefore, the dismantling of the deeply racist, settler-colonial project and an end to apartheid across the land,” Mokhiber stated.

“Mokhiber wrote this letter as one of the U.N.’s highest ranking ‘human rights’ officials, on U.N. letterhead, with a U.N. email address,” professor Anne Bayefsky, the director of the Touro Institute on Human Rights and the Holocaust, told Fox News Digital. “As such, his overt call for the destruction of the Jewish state lays bare what is really going on at the U.N. in the war now being waged by and at the U.N. against Israel.” (Read more from “Outgoing Senior UN Official Calls for One-State Solution, Slams U.S., Israel: ‘Chilling Words’” HERE)

Iranian Foreign Minister Arrives in New York, Praises Hamas as Legitimate ‘Resistance Group’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian arrived in New York on Thursday to attend a session of the U.N. General Assembly.

Amirabdollahian praised the terrorists of Hamas as a lawful and legitimate “resistance group” to reporters and delivered a belligerent speech to the U.N., threatening dire consequences for the United States and Israel if the Israelis continue their assault on Hamas in Gaza.

Before leaving for New York, Amirabdollahian saluted the Hamas terrorists and proclaimed, “Resistance in the region is a reality.”

Amirabdollahian accused Israel of “retreating from the battlefield and targeting civilians,” as if Hamas had challenged the Israelis to a joust rather than launching a horrific surprise attack against innocent women and children.

“The continued killing of civilians by the Zionists narrows the space for the forces of resistance in Palestine and the region,” he complained. (Read more from “Iranian Foreign Minister Arrives in New York, Praises Hamas as Legitimate ‘Resistance Group’” HERE)

The UN Sides With the Terrorists, Again

/0 Comments/in , /by

United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres gave a speech at the UN General Assembly Tuesday and excused the October 7 terrorist attack carried out by Hamas on thousands of innocent Israeli citizens. At least two hundred people are being held hostage by Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip and 33 Americans have been killed.

“The attacks by Hamas did not happen in a vacuum,” Guterres said, falsely stating Gaza is under “Israeli occupation.” Israel left Gaza in 2005. In 2007, the people of Gaza elected Hamas as their government, who turned the 25 mile strip into a terrorism hell hole.

U.S. Enemies and Adversaries Reveal Intentions at United Nations General Assembly

/0 Comments/in , /by

The 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly opened this month with dictators and elected leaders alike — the U.N. does not prefer one or the other — descending upon New York City to deliver mind-numbing speeches replete with misinformation and disinformation.

It’s called the “General Debate,” but if you see the UNGA (pronounced un-gah) as a great deliberative body, I suggest you consult a competent ophthalmologist.

Those concerned about America’s national security, however, can find morsels of significance in the word salads served up by our adversaries and enemies. (The difference between adversaries and enemies? The former intend to defeat us. The latter intend to destroy us.)

Russian President Vladimir Putin did not attend this year’s UNGA. He’s busy waging a war of conquest and subjugation against Ukraine, Russia’s neighbor and a fellow U.N. member.

Speaking for Mr. Putin was his longtime and loyal foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, who complained about Ukrainians’ stubborn refusal to submit. In the best tradition of Soviet propagandists, he characterized their defense of their independence, homeland and families as “the extermination of Russians.” He scolded “Western countries” that “support this.” (Read more from “U.S. Enemies and Adversaries Reveal Intentions at United Nations General Assembly” HERE)
