My guess is that by the way the unfunding quickly played out that the proof is substantial. It’s going to be more than a dozen before they see countries tax dollars again.
You can go back through the years and see Israel complain that the UNRWA was fostering hate. Madaris in that part of the world have been known to do that. The proof that they’re actively involved in terrorism is above our pay grade, but we do know various hostages were being held by teachers and doctors.
Madaris? Just call them schools like a normal person. Anyone seeking English in Gaza would call that a “school”. Kinda weird, why would you choose a different word for this? Flaunting your Arabic, or what?
I think you are doing it to make it sound more like the Taliban for whom the word “madrasa” (and not “madaris”, but somehow you wanted the plural form) specifically means religious schools that indoctrinate children into political Islam. No one else tends to use the word to mean otherwise. Hamas doesn’t do that kind of stuff. Basically, education in Gaza is on par with the rest of the world. They have had excellent universities, they have had excellent medical centers that had to specialize in very specific types of injuries (thanks Israel!). The UNRWA school offer a normal education like any other in the Middle East (Arabic, English, Math, Science, and so on). There is nothing “madrasa” about it. And yet you chose to use that word.
Now, I don’t want to go around accusing, I just can’t help but think, why did this person choose to use a Arabic variety of the word “school” to describe Gazan schools and education? Is it just, *“omg look at me I speak Arabic, yalla bro!” or is it something else?
This both isn’t one and I don’t for a moment believe you’re using it in the name of multiculturalism. You’re a reliable apologist for Israel and want to make “schools” sound like something scary.
As their first language? You just need to speak it. I think English education is compulsory in schools in Gaza so I’d safely bet almost everyone speaks a medium to advanced level of English.
Wait really? Unrelated to the wider topic, I’m finding it hard to believe the majority of any Arab nation’s people speak a medium, let alone advanced, level of English.
It’s all thanks to the English for colonizing us.
Usually, the second language spoken is either English or French, depending on who this country celebrates its independence from.
I even was an English teacher in the Middle East at some point lol
Yes, English is taught in most Arab countries starting in Grade 1 all the way up to highschool. Almost every upper educational organization will offer students English 101 if they fail a placement test or need extra help.
I know about English education in the Middle East since I’m from there; what I meant is: Does it actually stick in Gaza? At least where I’m from it goes like this: You just memorize the words and grammar, somehow pass the exam and then forget all of it, after high school you go from kinda sorta having intermediate level English back to only knowing the basics unless you study a field where you learn in English. I doubt the average person in the street from my country would be able to have a functional conversation with a, say, foreign tourist, so I’m wondering if it’s different in Gaza.
The proof that they’re actively involved in terrorism is above our pay grade
How convenient. So we’re just supposed to take it on trust.
Of course I have seen the Israeli claims and read the UN Watch report where they quote some social media posts. Probably not enough to stop aid to a humanitarian organization but maybe it’s because my “pay grade” is too low to find out the really juicy facts they have which definitely totally exist and aren’t just made up ad hoc justifications for cruelty.
The fact remains that the source for this claim is bro trust me. Nobody should care who I trust. But I’m sure most people can see that “bro trust me” is completely useless. I will believe it when I see evidence

Does anyone know what this proof is? Seems odd that you have to guess

How many Gazians speak English as a fist language? Why do you have a problem with a word?
Most people here speak English as a first language and you’re making the choice to switch to the foreign word here for a reason.
Lots of foreign words in the English language. No reason to be afraid of them.

You are very much not off target with your suspicions about this account’s motivations. And it’s not to show off their familiarity with Arabic.

Really? The word madrasa is scary to you? Whatever

^^^ look guys, a prime case of definitely not bait or trolling ^^^

Dude. If you think you should be able to walk into intelligence agencies and get their information on a particular topic, that’s truly sad.
Source: bro trust me
Lol what a joke
I don’t think anyone really cares who you trust.
The fact remains that the source for this claim is bro trust me. Nobody should care who I trust. But I’m sure most people can see that “bro trust me” is completely useless. I will believe it when I see evidence
You are not asked to believe it.
