Scapegoat of United Nations After All These Years

 Nadene Goldfoot                                                   

After 4,000 years of being the scapegoat of the world, the position continues for Israel within the United Nations and their representative countries.  It looks like old habits die hard.

• A scapegoat is someone outside of your group who also stands out from the social norm. The group then uses these scapegoats to transfer blame and negative emotions because they do not share the desires of the group. This blame, negative emotion, or fundamental truth is something the group does not want to acknowledge internally, so the blame is transferred to the scapegoat. 
• In an instant, the problems of the group are gone because of the transfer of blame onto the scapegoat. Since scapegoats are identified as the root cause of the problem, they create a sense of relief, healing, and even protection for the group.  A psychologist calls this
• a natural thing to do.  Not for 4,000 years, I sure don't think so.  

It has now become an unwritten declaration that Israel is the cause of Hamas starvation even though Netanyahu and his spokesmen have explained over and over what the truth happens to be;  another form of attack on Israel with false witnessing of Israel depriving Hamas population of food.  They are blaming Israel for group starvation.  

I call the civilian population also Hamas because the terrorists do not wear their uniforms while fighting.  They hide behind civilian clothing, civilian people and their children in crowds, schools,, mosques, and especially hospitals.  They hide in the miles long passageways of tunnels they have dug.  They are the siblings, parents, grandparents, great grandparents of the present-day terrorists.                                

Hamas was founded in 1987 by Palestinian cleric Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and others in the Gaza Strip. The group emerged at the beginning of the First Intifada, a Palestinian uprising against the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. Go back further and you have Yasser Arafat with his PLO Palestine Liberation Organization from 1969 to 2004

 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has denied accusations of starvation in Gaza, stating that Israel has a policy of preventing starvation and is allowing humanitarian aid to enter.

He and other Israeli officials have repeatedly dismissed reports of famine, which they characterize as politically motivated propaganda orchestrated by Hamas. This stance, articulated in speeches and statements, stands in sharp contrast to the conclusions of numerous UN agencies and international humanitarian organizations. 

Netanyahu's defense against starvation accusations:

In multiple statements and speeches, including at an event for evangelical Christians in July 2025, Netanyahu has made the following points: 

"No starvation in Gaza": He has insisted that no one is starving in Gaza and that images of emaciated people are part of a fabricated "starvation campaign".

• "No policy of starvation": Netanyahu explicitly states, "Israel does not have a policy of starvation; Israel has a policy of preventing starvation".
• Blame on Hamas: He has blamed Hamas for the aid crisis, accusing the militant group of stealing aid deliveries.
• Blame on aid agencies: Netanyahu has also pointed fingers at international aid agencies, such as the UN, for failing to distribute aid effectively.
•                  Allegations regarding UNRWA staff
  Following Hamas's October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, Israel alleged that a small number of employees of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) were involved. 
  • Specific accusations: An Israeli dossier accused a dozen UNRWA employees of involvement in the attack, including alleged kidnappings.
  • UN response: The UN swiftly condemned the allegations and fired nine of the accused staffers based on information it deemed sufficient for their termination.
  • Internal investigation: An internal UN investigation by the Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS) concluded in August 2024. It found that nine staff members "may have been involved" in the attacks but could not independently verify most of the information provided by Israel.
• The latest found are terrorists moonlighting as journalists. If youare wearing a "Press" vest. they found safety in carrying out theirkilling.  They are like the few doctors who have also been foundto be terrorists at heart.  It's very disappointing all the wayaround.

• Disputes IPC report: After the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), a UN-backed authority on food security, declared a famine in parts of Gaza in August 2025, Netanyahu's office called the report an "outright lie" and a "modern blood libel".
• Cites aid deliveries: He has cited the amount of aid Israel claims to have enabled into the Gaza Strip, stating that over 2 million tons of aid have entered since the beginning of the war.

• I say, look at Israel's history of teaching other countries
• agricultural methods, always offering aid to countries in trouble, with favorite word being L'Chaim (to life) or Essen (Yiddish for EAT).  Shame on countries thinking that Israel would starve children.  Hamas knows this and purposely uses it to harm Israel's reputation by starving their own people to put blame on Israel, and of course,---everyone jumps at the chance to blame their favorite scapegoat!!!
