UN Cowards Flee The Mess They Made
LGF
Maintaining an unbroken record of craven cowardice, unapologetic corruption, and bald-faced hypocrisy, the United Nations will move about a third of its employees out of the suddenly-unfriendly Palestinian Authority, into an area controlled by the nation whose destruction they voted for tonight: UN to move 20 workers from Gaza to Jerusalem.

The United Nations has decided to move 20 people working in UN facilities in Gaza - about a third of its foreign crews - to the UN headquarters in Armon Hanatziv in Jerusalem. The other 40 non-Palestinians working for the UN in Gaza will remain at their jobs.
The transfer was ordered by Peter Hansen, UNRWA commissioner general in Gaza, who is also responsible for the security of all the UN organizations operating in the strip. According to a Hansen spokesman, the transfer of the 20 was the result of “the security situation in the area of the Erez Junction and Beit Hanoun, where IDF forces are operating and which endanger the movement of UN people entering and leaving Gaza.”
But other international groups operating in Gaza said that the real reason for the redeployment of the civilian foreigners is the deteriorating security in recent months, and particularly the events in Gaza last weekend when French aid workers were briefly kidnapped by armed Palestinians.

And were you, by any chance, wondering why UN envoy Terje Roed-Larsen recently came out with such harsh criticisms of his former best buddy Yasser Arafat, after being such a willing tool for the terrorists for so many years?
Well, here’s the answer: because Roed-Larsen’s own lying ass was in danger.

Sources in Gaza said that two months ago, Secretary General Kofi Annan was warned by a third party that an armed faction in Gaza was plotting to kidnap Annan’s envoy to the region, Terje Roed Larsen, in an attempt to pressure the Israeli government.
The sources said that a demonstration of thousands that took place during the IDF operation in Rafah was actually meant to reach a Gaza City compound where Roed Larsen was often located. During the march, 17 armed men managed to get inside the compound, and when they didn’t find the Norwegian diplomat they demanded he make an appearance, and at the same time they began summoning the media. Roed Larsen refused to comply with their demand and eventually the armed men left. The UN subsequently learned the armed men planned to hold Roed Larsen hostage while they made demands.<font color=black>
