Bomb Norway
An Norwegian parliamentary official said that he nominated the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) for the Nobel Peace Prize this week, after Israeli intelligence alleged that UNRWA employees participated in Hamas’s October 7 attack against Israel.
At least twelve UNRWA staffers participated in the attack, an Israeli intelligence dossier revealed last week, and 1,200 of UNRWA’s 12,000 staffers in Gaza have ties to Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Several countries, including the U.S., have since suspended funding for UNRWA.
Labour MP Asmund Aukrust said he nominated UNRWA “for its long-term work to provide vital support to Palestine and the region in general,” and added that “this work has been crucial for over 70 years, and even more vital in the last three months.”
When they tell you who they are…
[Åsmund Grøver Aukrust] served as deputy leader of the Workers’ Youth League from 2010 to 2014.[5] He originally ran for the leadership, but narrowly lost the vote to Eskil Pedersen in a closely contested race,[6] although the election committee overwhelmingly favored him.[7] On 25 April 2011, he was elected vice president of the International Union of Socialist Youth.[8]

Lewis has long been a critic of the UN, and at times a harsh one, but it is her sponsoring of a petition from a private citizen that has the Liberals trying to sell a story. Petition E-4623 was started by a private citizen, Doug Porter of Burnaby, B.C., but like any online petition on the parliamentary website it needed an MP to sponsor it.
Enter Lewis, who has also been promoting the petition, which had just over 67,000 signatures on Thursday evening and called on Canada to leave the UN. The Globe and Mail cited Mohammad Hussain, a spokesperson for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, as saying Lewis supporting the petition raises questions.
Sign it here, you crazy daredevil mischief makers.

Lieberals attack Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis over petition calling for Canada to leave UN:
Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis is facing criticism for promoting a petition advocating Canada’s withdrawal from the United Nations and World Health Organization.
The petition says Canada’s membership in these organizations “imposes negative consequences on the people of Canada, far outweighing any benefits.”
The Prime Minister’s Office and Liberal MPs have accused Lewis and the Conservatives of being “conspiracy theorists and extremists.”

Since that horrific day, the U.N. has called numerous emergency sessions, held hours of debate, drafted hundreds of pages of draft resolutions – all of which amount to very little.
It has not passed a single resolution to condemn Hamas’ savagery, even though terrorists wore GoPros to document themselves slaughtering, raping and torturing civilians. Similarly, the U.N. has not called for the release of more than 200 hostages, including babies, children and the elderly.

One must not stand silent in the face of a second Holocaust, the Czech Defense Minister Jana Černochová said as she called on her country to withdraw from the United Nations to protest its failure to condemn Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel.
She spoke of her outrage one day after the UN General Assembly voted 120-14 for a ceasefire for the Gaza War, which focused primarily on the plight of the Palestinians in Gaza.
The UNGA resolution which also had 45 abstentions, did not mention or clearly call for the release of the 230 hostages the terror group took captive on that day.
RIP Claudia Rosett
You may remember her reporting from the Oil For Food days;
Much of her career was spent with the Wall Street Journal, serving as its Moscow bureau chief and editorial page editor for the Asia division. She was fearless and passionate, especially when reporting about repressive regimes around the world. Claudia was the only print journalist who witnessed the Tiananmen Square uprising in 1989, dodging bullets to get the story out to the world (you can read her first-hand account here). She was also a fierce critic of the United Nations and is widely credited with exposing corruption in the international body. She received several awards for her reporting on the UN’s Oil-for-Food program in Iraq. In recent years she had traveled to Hong Kong to cover protests over the encroachment of China. She was also a foreign policy fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum.
They don’t make them like her anymore. (And those that they do are shunted off to Substack).

Here’s a long thread on the subject.
Just one question: If homosexual men were to stop engaging in anal sex for a few weeks or months, wouldn’t that stop MonkeyPox in its tracks? Or is that simple question now verboten?!?

The Globalist Agenda, Part Two
Neil Oliver gives his take on the new WHO amendments.
The Globalist Agenda
How the World Health Organization wants to control public health. I suppose its just another step towards a one world government. Dear Leader Justin certainly supports WHO. He has increased Canada’s contribution to the organization. In somewhat related news. Another UN scandal.
Down The Primrose Path
They said the quiet part out loud: “For some in NATO, it’s better for the Ukrainians to keep fighting, and dying, than to achieve a peace that comes too early or at too high a cost to Kyiv and the rest of Europe.”
Save The World From Free Speech
Unleash the Borg! You must all be assimilated. UN warns against individualistic conservatives.
We can seem, to them, to be weak and divided…
I support swift, sustained, coordinated and crushing sanctions against Russia.
I support the decisions of the Gov’t of Canada in regards to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Glory to Ukraine!
The people of Ukraine are today showing the incredible strength of a free people fighting for their democracy.
This is one of those times, and one of those places, where freedom confronts tyranny.
We are determined that freedom will triumph, and it will. pic.twitter.com/bcT5PaKfgH

Perhaps Trudeau when he is not surfing, can explain why he sends money to a UN agency that is constantly getting into trouble. Maybe his new former Green Party MP can explain it.

No joke: #China joins U.N. Human Rights Council panel, where it will help select the U.N.'s next world monitors on freedom of speech, enforced disappearances & arbitrary detention—and on health. That's like making a pyromaniac into the town fire chief. https://t.co/DqFY90rd6I
