CdnFox Posted January 31, 2024 Report Posted January 31, 2024 In Canada, too many of our professors seem to wish they could have participated in the pogrom The Israel-Hamas war has exposed an education system that promotes hate and glorifies violence — not only in the Palestinian territories, but right here in Canada. On Friday, UNRWA, the United Nations agency responsible for ensuring Palestinians remain in a perpetual state of refugeehood, announced that it had fired several staff members after Israel provided credible evidence that they had participated in the Oct. 7 massacre. This prompted numerous countries, including Canada, to pause funding to the agency. Subsequent reporting revealed that 12 staff members are under investigation, nine of whom work for UNRWA schools, including seven teachers. Unfortunately, this should not come as a surprise. Yet it’s not only in the Palestinian territories that instructors have been promoting hatred against Jews, glorifying violence and teaching skewed accounts of history. It’s happening right here at home. BTW - trudeau gave these people a CRAPload of money and just sent another big check moments before announcing funding would halt. 1 Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
Legato Posted January 31, 2024 Report Posted January 31, 2024 Crickets from those who worship at the alter the United Nincompoops. Here's another article from 2019 showing corruption at UNWRA. SUMMARY OF THE SCANDAL In July 2019, news broke of a major corruption scandal among UNRWA’s senior management. As reported by the media, a leaked confidential report from UNRWA’s ethics office detailed egregious abuses of authority at the highest levels. In the wake of the scandal, UNRWA’s Deputy Commissoner-General Sandra Mitchell and Chief of Staff Hakam Shahwan, both of whom had been implicated in the abuse, resigned. Shahwan claimed his resignation was unrelated to the allegations. Mitchell stated she had resigned for personal reasons. The ethics report was leaked to the media by a source close to UNRWA, after it appeared that the UN Secretary-General’s office, which reportedly received the report in December 2018, was not taking action. The allegations are currently being investigated by the UN’s Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS). The implicated senior staff, referred to in the ethics report as the “inner circle,” are: Commissioner-General Pierre Krähenbühl Deputy Commissioner-General Sandra Mitchell Chief of Staff Hakam Shahwan Senior Adviser to the Commissioner-General Maria Mohammedi The allegations against them include “sexual misconduct, nepotism, retaliation…and other abuses of authority” which led to an “exodus of senior and other staff” and a toxic and dysfunctional work environment. https://unwatch.org/unrwa-ethics-scandal-fact-sheet/ 1 Quote

They funnel likely candidates into terrorist groups like Hamas. And we've given them hundreds of millions and just sent off a 40 million dollar cheque minutes before blacklisting them from funding. And yeah - the silence speaks volumes. Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

Army Guy Posted February 1, 2024 Report Posted February 1, 2024 This has been going on for decades, and most sane people wonder why the rest of the world can not see the bias in a organization that has been taken over and run by 3 rd world countries...maybe it is time to drop out of the UN, that seems to have more failed organization than ones that are working for a better world. 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.

I am neutral on this Israel-Hamas conflict, however I just want to comment on the above. I am absolutely SICK of government heads (this happens throughout the West, not just Canada) handing out their people's hard-won wealth to earn for themselves a reputation as a generous philanthropist. No, that is not your money, you did not earn that money, you don't have the right to just give it away to another country. It should be a criminal offence to mis-spend the taxpayers' money like that. Leaders who do that sicken me. 3 Quote
I am Groot Posted February 1, 2024 Report Posted February 1, 2024 Indeed, our universities are infested with leftist ideologues. From what I've read most of those arrested on hate crime charges for vandalizing Indo books because its owner is a Jew are university teachers or work in education in some other capacity. Can't blame Trudeau for that, though. I blame Conservative premiers who have allowed this to happen and do nothing whatsoever about it. Not a single one has had the balls to take on the educrats and their massive phalanxes of lettered ideologues. Quote
herbie Posted February 1, 2024 Report Posted February 1, 2024 IOW you have the right to free speech, but universities shouldn't. Or all other people that don't agree with your views should lose theirs too? As for the claim of the thread title, that wasn't a professor that was an instructor. Who got her ass fired. After they reviewed it like you have to do according to Labour Laws. You just yell You're Fired on TV and TV isn't real which some people seem to forget. Quote

Their extreme tendency to lean left. They are supposed to foster diversity of ideas but instead they indoctrinate the students with leftist ideology and punish thoughts that deviate from the orthodoxy. And it's ironic that you said he wanted people to lose their freedom of speech when it's actually the leftists and the academia who are the biggest offenders. 1 Quote

It doesn't matter if a dozen of employees among 35,000 participate in the attack of the 7th october, it is a pretext of you, Trudeau and Poilievre to cut food and medication to palestinians for accelerating the génocide.

admined Posted February 1, 2024 Report Posted February 1, 2024 Why should professors feel any pressure to hold back when the federal government has been actively funding UNRWA for many years, including a quarter of a billion dollars since 2016 - all while claiming to be fully aware of how the money was spent. It's true, of course, that even if the government had been consistently opposed to funding terror there would still be academics - and academic institutions - choosing the wrong side. But at least they couldn't claim to represent the establishment view. Quote

So you're pretending I want to threaten what doesn't exist is disingenuous at best. Job applicants are scrutinized for their ideological conformity with leftist views before being hired and promoted. And constantly monitored, as are students, for improper speech and beliefs by a veritable army of DEI administrators. And those teachers work to insert ideological material into their lessons in order to indoctrinate students. It's rarely put as clearly as it was in that CUPE teachers handout at York, but it's always understood this is something good to do. Edited February 1, 2024 by I am Groot Quote

SpankyMcFarland Posted February 4, 2024 Report Posted February 4, 2024 (edited) So what are the names of the teachers who actually killed Jews and the profs who admired those particular people?

Bingo: unfortunately the case that the UN has become a massive 3rd world dominated bureaucracy funded by first world nations. In the case of Gaza/Palestine the thousands of UN employees that prop the place up could not possibly avoid employing some very hard line Paleo/Hamas supporters. To find only 12 is total BS. By the same token showing the total ineffectuality of the UN: the two state solution has faltered horribly with Israeli "settlers" taking over the West Bank. To think a sea of Jews is somehow going to tolerate two islands of people brought up to hate their very existence is naive in the extreme. 1 Quote
