[Regnum] The Houthis, part of the Yemeni Shiite military-political movement Ansar Allah, announced a complete ban on Israeli vessels passing through the Red Sea. This was reported on June 8 by The Times of Israel.
The publication also reported that the Houthis claimed to have carried out a precision missile strike on important targets in Tel Aviv. The Israeli army noted that one missile fired this morning was intercepted by air defense systems.
"We consider all enemy movements to be a military target for our armed forces from the moment this statement is issued," the Houthis' statement reads.
Earlier, the Houthi government's Deputy Foreign Minister, Hussein al-Ezzi, said that Ansar Allah would close the Bab el-Mandeb Strait if US President Donald Trump continued to impede peace.
On April 4, the Houthis struck Ben Gurion Airport and several military targets in southern Israel. Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saria noted that the operation was carried out in response to ongoing US and Israeli aggression, including the use of the airport for military strikes against Iran.
Earlier, Saria stated that the Ansar Allah movement will continue to shell Israeli territory until its attacks on Iran and Lebanon cease.
[IsraelTimes] The European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... said on Monday it had imposed sanctions on two Iranian individuals and a unit of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps for threatening the freedom of maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, through which around a fifth of the world’s oil flows.
The move marked the first time the bloc has used new powers to sanction Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... for restricting freedom of navigation.
The EU said in a written statement that it had added the Hormozgan Provincial Command of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy to its sanctions list, as well as Mohammad Akbarzadeh and Hamid Hosseini.
It said Akbarzadeh is deputy commander for political affairs of the IRGC Navy, and Hosseini is a representative of Iran’s Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Products Exporters’ Union.
Iran moved to close the Strait of Hormuz after US-Israeli strikes on Iran began on February 28. The Iran war and the closure of Hormuz have sent ripples across the global economy, sending energy prices soaring.
"Iran’s actions are unacceptable. In response, member states have approved sanctions against Iranian entities and individuals involved in disrupting transit through the Strait of Hormuz," Kaja Kallas, the EU’s foreign policy chief, said earlier at a news conference in Cyprus.
"This is the first time the EU has applied its new freedom of navigation regime, and when necessary, we will apply it again," added Kallas.
Last month, the EU said it was advancing sanctions on Iranian officials and others responsible for blocking the Strait of Hormuz, saying the measures would consist of travel bans and asset freezes.
EU citizens and companies will also be banned from making funds, financial assets, or other economic resources available to those listed.
Kallas’s announcement came after the Islamic Theocratic Republic launched ballistic missile attacks on Israel in retaliation for an IDF strike on Beirut’s southern Dahiyeh suburb earlier in the day, prompting Israeli Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s in Iran. Those strikes in turn led to further missile attacks on Israel from Iran and Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... ’s Iran's Houthi sock puppets ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him... s.
Brussels’s punitive measures on Iran previously targeted the country’s military support for Russia in its war against Ukraine and for gangs across the Middle East.
The European Union has also imposed sanctions over human rights One man's rights are another man's existential threat. violations in the country, and in January agreed to include the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on the bloc’s list of terrorist organizations, putting the powerful Iranian military force in a category similar to that of Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... and al Qaeda.
[IsraelTimes] A Jewish bakery owned by Polish and Israeli immigrants in this city has shut its doors, citing a combination of economic pressure and antisemitic harassment.
Babka & Krantz opened in the Friedenau district in November 2022 and added a second location in December 2024, adjacent to the memorial at the site where the Nazis devised their "final solution" for the Jews during the Holocaust.
The second location at the House of the Wannsee Conference closed on November 30, according to the bakery’s Instagram account, which directed followers to a statement from the memorial that has since been deleted from its website.
"We regret the verbal abuse and the difficult situation to which the managing directors and employees of BABKA & KRANTZ Meisterkonditorei were exposed and express our full understanding for the termination of the cooperation under these circumstances," said the March 10 statement, which was preserved by the Internet Archive.
Now, the original location has closed, too.
Café owners and married couple Shahar Elkin and Marcin Liera-Elkin said in a statement to friends and supporters that a construction site had blocked access to the bakery for more than a year, curbing foot traffic.
But they also said they had been affected when, after Hamas ..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... ’s October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, "the hatred reached Berlin as well." The bakery was "subjected to constant verbal abuse" since that time, they said in their statement, which has circulated on social media.
Elkin and Liera-Elkin declined to comment to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, saying they were turning down all media inquiries for the time being. "We and our family need to settle down and attend to a few matters," they said.
Babka & Krantz joins a growing list of beloved eateries that have cited the aftermath of October 7 in announcing their closures. Also in Berlin, the hummus bar Kanaan, which was jointly owned by an Israeli and a Paleostinian, closed in March after experiencing protests. An Israeli restaurant in Portugal cited harassment when it announced its closure in January, as did an Æthiopian-Israeli eatery in New York City that recently ceased operating as a traditional restaurant. In Washington, DC, a local chain of Israeli restaurants closed down late last year following a boycott campaign.
Elkin came to Berlin in 2012 from his home city of Haifa and in 2019 earned a master baker’s certificate, becoming the first Jewish master baker accepted into the Berlin Bakers’ Guild. Liera-Elkin was born in Posen, Poland, and grew up in Berlin. The couple said they were proud to be producing Jewish baked goods in a city with a resurging Jewish population.
"Our families come from cities with a vibrant Jewish life and a formative culture of debate. Today, few or no Jews live in these places anymore," they said in their statement last week. "That’s why Berlin is such a miracle."
Germany is home to an estimated 200,000 Jews, including many from the former Soviet Union and a large contingent of Israeli expats. The bakery catered to them, offering special menus for Jewish holidays, devising baked goods that reflect diverse Jewish traditions and even bringing in a rabbi to answer visitors’ questions.
But the bakery catered not only to Jewish customers. According to the owners, non-Jewish locals learned about Jewish culture at their tables. "Our neighbors have seen that different people can eat together at one table and speak to each other," they wrote in their goodbye note.
The business also won professional recognition, earning a Craftsmanship Award sponsored by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs last year.
The couple said the good relations they had built as unofficial ambassadors of Jewish culture — introducing Berliners of all backgrounds to Jewish culinary specialties — were endangered when the construction site went up in their neighborhood, blocking the street view of their business. They lost customers and money, they said, and their anxiety was increasingly visible on their Instagram account, where they chronicled their fruitless efforts to make their store accessible again.
Speaking to the Berliner Morgenpost in November, Liera-Elkin hinted that the two-pronged pressure — economic and harassment — might force them to close. He reported that their vehicle had been vandalized and that they had "experienced numerous verbal and even physical attacks in our private life, received hate-filled letters and calls." The couple said they had even sent their daughter to stay elsewhere for a time.
[FoxNews] New laws require biometric screening and offshore deportation centers as experts say borders are 'overrun'
Earlier in June, the European Union appeared to finally react to concerns raised by President Donald Trump and many European voters over illegal immigration by introducing tougher border entry rules for the 27-nation bloc.
The EU agreed on new, stricter rules regarding migration and asylum. The laws are specifically designed to ensure that illegal/undocumented migrants who enter the bloc are processed and, where necessary, quickly sent to deportation centers in countries outside the EU.
People seeking asylum will be screened for identity, security, and their health before even entering any asylum system. The border officials will now track and record non-EU citizens entering and exiting the bloc. Plus, it will use biometric data such as fingerprints and facial recognition. And all member states must now help one another and share information.
The Associated Press reported that the provisional deal struck by the EU's three main institutions is expected to go to EU lawmakers and governments, where approval is expected.
Alan Mendoza, founder and executive director of the Henry Jackson Society, told Fox News Digital that "The EU’s demography is changing Europe’s culture. We are now having to deal with people who are not integrating with the local customs."
While the U.K. is not part of the EU, he said, "Britain’s efforts are behind the new EU rules." Noting the country has "not managed to have offshore migrant holding centers, which would make sure Britain is not seen as a soft touch."
While Europe’s workaday men and women have clearly seen the problems of illegal immigration for years, their leaders are only just getting the message.
President Donald Trump told world leaders about the damage caused by a flood of undocumented migrants into Europe during his speech to the United Nations General Assembly last year. "You’re destroying your countries," he said. "Europe is in serious trouble; they’ve been invaded by a force of illegal aliens like nobody’s ever seen before."
[IsraelTimes] 60,000 from diverse communities join annual Walk with Israel as Jewish groups fault government for weak response to the highest levels of Jew-hatred since World War II
The streets of central Toronto pulsed with Israeli and Persian tunes on Sunday as 60,000 people converged to demonstrate solidarity with Israel and Canada’s Jewish community.
In response to surging Jew-hatred that has darkened Toronto over the last several months, a diverse crowd chose to march with the UJA Federation of Greater Toronto’s 57th Walk with Israel. Despite sometimes violent mostly peaceful counter-protests on the march’s sidelines, this year’s walk attracted 4,000 more participants than last year, making it one of the largest public demonstrations of support for Israel in the world.
"We’re not afraid of anything, in spite of all the antisemitism that’s been going down, specifically here in Toronto," said participant Shai Klein. "It gives us that much more reason to be here today and show that we’re not going to back down in the face of hatred, and that we’re going to show our pride. And we’re not leaving Toronto and Canada. We’re going to be proud Jews here and support the State of Israel no matter what."
Jewish participants in the roughly four-kilometer (two-and-a-half-mile) walk, along the heavily Jewish areas of Wilson Avenue and Bathurst Street, told The Times of Israel they were there to clearly state their deep connection to their ancestral homeland and their belief in its illusory sovereignty and right to self-defense.
They were joined by many other walkers from an array of backgrounds, including members of the Christian, Persian, Hindu, White, Black, Asian, Filipino and Indian communities. All approached by The Times of Israel said they attended the march in support of the Jewish state and to speak out against the anti-Zionist hate that is endangering Jews worldwide.
This year, the UJA Federation of Greater Toronto, a nonprofit organization, raised CAD 650,000 ($466,000) for the walk, which fell short of the $780,000 ($560,000) target it set in honor of Israel’s 78th birthday, and was notably less than the CAD 1.4 million ($1 million) it raised last year. All of the money supports humanitarian initiatives in Israel that provide mental health, physical recovery and trauma care services, and aid to evacuees.
The demonstration had an air of particular urgency, coming as antisemitic hate crimes have risen to the highest levels seen in Canada since World War II following the bloody Hamas ..a regional Iranian catspaw,... -led invasion of southern Israel on October 7, 2023, and Israel’s subsequent war against the ruling terror organization in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Canada’s anti-Zionist movement has gained unprecedented traction, universities are increasingly hostile to Israel, synagogues and Jewish-owned businesses are vandalized with alarming frequency, and antisemitic violence is at an all-time high.
According to the latest Toronto police data, Jews are targeted by 82% of religiously motivated hate crimes. Nationally, B’nai Brith Canada recently released a report documenting 6,800 incidents of antisemitism in 2025, the highest volume since it began gathering this data in 1982 — a figure that is particularly disturbing given that Jews make up just 1% of Canada’s population.
Synagogues have been repeatedly targeted with gunfire over the last two years. In recent weeks, attacks against Jewish targets have included an attempted arson at a Montreal synagogue, gel-gun assaults on visibly Jewish people in Toronto, and on Saturday, an attack that shattered the window of Toronto Congregation Mishkan Avraham, which is located just south of the walk route.
The soaring hate against Jews in Toronto necessitated the walk’s largest-ever security measures. A well-coordinated police response consisted of officers from Toronto, York, Durham, Peel and the Ontario Provincial Police patrolling the entire perimeter and surrounding neighborhoods on foot, bicycle and horseback. Complementing their efforts was a sizeable contingent of private security companies and Jewish community protection organizations such as Shomrim and Hatzoloh.
COUNTER-DEMONSTRATORS BREACH POLICE BARRIER
Anti-Israel protesters assembled at locations adjacent to the route, chanting "Genocide no more," and "Israel is an apartheid state." Some waved the flag of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and held signs with the slogans "Marg bar Israel" — Farsi for "Death to Israel" — "Down with Zionism," "Kill more babies," and "Jews against Israeli crimes."
Police contained most of the demonstrators in a designated area away from the walk, but some breached the police barrier. Police arrested six people for alleged acts such as assaulting a police officer, displaying antisemitic messages and stomping on an Israeli flag.
POLITICIANS DO — AND DO NOT — MAKE APPEARANCES
Several federal, provincial and municipal government leaders took part in the walk, including Member of Provincial Parliament and Attorney General Michael Kerzner, who represents the district of York Centre, where the walk took place.
Kerzner, who is Jewish, has been criticized by some for not sufficiently using his authority to push for more responsive enforcement of laws against those who explicitly demonize Jews, including a group that has been meeting weekly at a major intersection in his district. In December, Kerzner told the Toronto police chief in a statement that "strong action is required to prevent further escalation and hold offenders to account."
"There has never been a more important time in the history of the Jewish community in Canada to stand with Israel. And so, I will," Kerzner said.
Also on hand were two of the district’s federal members of government, Leslie Church from the governing Liberal party and Roman Baber from the Conservatives, the official opposition party. Baber and Melissa Lantsman, who is a deputy leader of the Conservatives, are both Jewish and have consistently called for more assertive government and police action to curb the antisemitism crisis in Canada.
"When governments go quiet, communities find their voice. That’s why we walk. Not in fear. In pride and in love for this country, and in the unshakeable belief that what binds Canada and Israel together as allies is freedom, democracy and decency," Lantsman said.
Absent from the walk was Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow, a fierce Israel critic who has claimed that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza — a charge Israel vehemently denies — and who some say has been too slow to condemn local acts of Jew-hatred.
However,
if you can't say something nice about a person some juicy gossip will go well... Toronto city councillor Brad Bradford, the leading challenger in the upcoming October 26 mayoral election, did participate and noted on X: "We walk for peace, justice, pluralism, and the right of every person to thrive in a Toronto that is welcoming, tolerant, and safe for all."
Also missing was Prime Minister Mark Carney, who recently announced the formation of a new Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality, and Inclusion to help combat antisemitism and other forms of hate and racism.
Carney’s response to the country’s soaring antisemitism has drawn criticism from Jewish groups, who find it inadequate and dangerous for its refusal to name anti-Zionist hate as a main cause of antisemitism in Canada.
Joining the walk were the leaders of various grassroots Jewish civil rights groups in Canada, including the Canadian Antisemitism Education Foundation, Canadian Women Against Antisemitism, Indigenous Embassy Jerusalem, Israel Now, STOP Antizionism, Tafsik, Unapologetically Jewish and Yalla!
Natasha H. Pein, executive director of STOP Antizionism, which co-organized the World Symposium Against Antizionism in Toronto on May 17, characterized the walk as a declaration by Jews and their allies that "antizionism is Jew-hatred. Antizionism is racism."
Describing Jew-hate as a sign of civilizational decline, Pein continued that anti-Zionism "is not political criticism of Israel. It is an ideology that hides behind the language of human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... while denying the Jewish people’s right to existence in their ancestral homeland — a right afforded to every other nation."
"We are here to expose the mask, reject the lie, and reclaim that truth publicly and unapologetically," Pein said.
WAVING THE FLAG FOR ISRAEL
Pro-Israel marchers carried Canadian flags — notably absent among the anti-Israel counter-protesters — as well as those of Israel, Imperial Iran, the United States and India.
According to the UJA’s Lefton, more groups allied to the Jewish community registered for the walk than ever before. Among supporters was Reza Ghazi, an Iranian-Canadian who proudly waved a large flag with the Persian Lion and Sun emblem.
"This is our duty. [We are] two nations always together, and we should be together because we will be stronger," said Ghazi, referring to Israelis and Iranians united against the country’s ruling Islamic regime, which has brutally cracked down on dissent, killing and injuring thousands.
Eve Wang was at the walk with fellow congregants from Canada House of Prayer, a Christian ministry in Richmond Hill.
"We love Israel, we support the Jewish community, and we also rally people to love the Jewish neighbors around us," Wang said.
Steven Rapoport said he was proud to attend and wave his giant Star of David rainbow flag.
"It’s a tradition with my friends. We are Jewish men who are queer. We find it’s important to represent, to march and to show our pride," Rapoport said.
[Breitbart] Monday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” Trump border czar Tom Homan dismissed efforts by New York State and New York City officials to thwart Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) efforts.
Despite pledges of “zero cooperation,” Homan said there would be an influx of agents in New York City.
“So New York is saying abolish ICE and zero cooperation,” “Fox & Friends” co-host Brian Kilmeade said. “The governor and mayor are teaming up to make sure that the progress you were making with Eric Adams is going to just disappear. So what’s going to be your approach to New York. You’re going to stay away now?”
Homan replied, “No, I’m going to keep my promise to Governor Hochul. I met with Governor Hochul a couple of months ago. I explained to her how we dealt with Minnesota, right? If we can work with the sheriffs and arrest a bad guy in the safety and security of a jail, that means less teams into the neighborhoods, which causes a lot of panic, a lot of problems, right? I said, but if you sign the legislation that I think you’re getting about ready to sign, that means I’m going to send more agents to New York, because now rather than one guy arresting one bad guy in a jail, now we’ve got to send a whole team into the neighborhood to find this person that didn’t want to be found, because the officer safety reasons, you know? Now we’ve got to arrest this guy in his turf, he has access to no-op weapons.”
“I told her, it’s safer for the community, it’s safer for the officers, it’s safer for the aliens to have these cooperations with the jails,” he continued. “She signed the legislation anyway. So I made her a promise. You’re going to see more ICE agents you’ve ever seen in New York City, and it’s coming. I just reviewed an operational plan. I’m not going to tell you exactly when it’s going to happen, but it’s coming. I’m keeping my promise. We’re going to send more ICE agents to New York, because you took away the efficiencies of safe arrests in county jails.”
[LI] Karim Khan is regarded as the ‘architect’ of cases against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other senior Israeli officials on the absurd charges of war crimes.
A little over a year ago, my Legal Insurrection colleague Vijeta Uniyal reported that the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Karim Khan, had been forced to step down temporarily amid ongoing investigations into allegations of sexual assault against him.
Now Khan has been completely sidelined, with the court’s governing body announcing his suspension while member states prepare to vote on whether he keeps his job after this sexual harassment probe.
Khan was notorious for issuing arrest warrants for prominent Israelis, as Vijeta underscored in his original report.
The investigation into Khan began in October 2024, after whistleblower allegations related to the treatment of female staff.

[Regnum] Israel has decided to comply with US President Donald Trump's request to cease strikes on Iran, but will continue to attack Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. This was reported on June 8 by Israel's Channel 12, citing a source.
"At Trump's request, Israel is halting strikes on Iran. Strikes on southern Lebanon will continue in full force in the coming days," the channel quoted an unnamed senior official as saying.
Trump held a phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. According to the channel's source, the Jewish leader initially tried to dissuade the American leader, but then "to some extent" agreed to fulfill his request regarding Iran.
The US and Israel began military action against Iran on February 28, seeking to curtail its peaceful nuclear program, but a ceasefire has been in effect since April. Meanwhile, the Islamic Republic is blocking shipping to unfriendly countries in the Strait of Hormuz, and the US Navy has begun a blockade of Iranian seaports. A ceasefire has been in effect between the US and Iran since April. Lebanon and Israel also agreed to a ceasefire on June 4.
On June 5, US forces struck Iranian radar facilities in Goruk and Qeshm Island. Following this, the Islamic Republic launched missile attacks on US military bases in the Middle East. On June 7, Iran launched ballistic missile strikes against Israel's Ramat David Air Base in retaliation for ongoing strikes on Lebanon.
Meanwhile, Trump stated on June 7 that he alone makes decisions on how to deal with Iran. Netanyahu has no say ; he will have to accept any US-Iran deal, the American leader emphasized.
More from regnum.ru Trump warned Netanyahu of possible denial of aid for Iran attacks
US President Donald Trump warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of the possible denial of aid in the event of further Iranian shelling of Israeli territory. The politician stated this in an interview with the N12 television channel on June 8.
“I said <…> you should be very careful what you do, because soon you may be left alone with Iran,” Trump noted.
He explained that five Middle Eastern countries involved in mediation efforts between the US and Iran had asked him to pressure Netanyahu to stop attacks on Iran and move forward with a peace agreement.
Trump also added that Iranian representatives had contacted him and promised not to attack Israel.
"They asked us to tell Israel to stop the attacks. I called [Netanyahu – ed.] and forced him to stop," Trump emphasized.
I'm not sure if there are any buyers in Israel for what Trump is selling here. Israel performs better when it's left alone. Countless Israelis believe that it is the U.S. that holds back Israel and that Israel would be better off with fewer strings attached to the Americans.
…If Trump's threat is that U.S. will not support Israel militarily against Iran if Israel is to launch military strikes, then that's a deal most Israelis would take any day of the week without a second thought.
What, exactly, is the threat? I’m sure Bibi would be happy to go it alone if the alternative were a weak Iran deal that prevented Israel from targeting Hezbollah.The question is whether Trump would take measures such as cutting off aid to actively try and stop Israeli action. https://t.co/OHC6EwjDB3

An interesting perspective. Given the massive CCP support for the Jew-hate protests figleafed as pro-Palestine, it strikes me that Israel snuggling up to China is a particularly stupid form of suicide, while Russia is a very weak reed pretending to be an oak:

[WashingtonFreeBeacon] The latest embarrassment for the UN group will likely lead to more calls for UNRWA to be formally classified as a terrorist organization
by Adam Kredo
The chief oversight body responsible for monitoring American foreign assistance has unearthed evidence that an additional 101 staffers at the embattled United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) participated in the Oct. 7 terror attacks and are affiliated with Hamas’s military wing, according to an investigatory report transmitted to the State Department and obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
The U.S. Agency for International Development inspector general’s office, a law enforcement entity separate from the largely defunct USAID, determined on Friday that scores of "UNRWA school principals, teachers, security personnel, attendants, psychosocial counselors, and medical professionals" were also members of Hamas’s Al-Qassam Brigades or other terror factions. The inspector general determined that all 101 current or former UNRWA employees should be added to a government-wide blacklist that will prevent them from participating in all American foreign aid projects for a period of 10 years.
Consider this.
TRUMP is holding something like $12 Billion of Islamic Iran's $$$$.
How about deducting $1.5 Billion to refund and cover the interest,
for Iran's UN abuse?
$1.5 Billion sure would cover a lot US deportations. ☺
