During the Hamas attacks on Israel, in which the UNRWA whose local staff is dominated by Hamas supporters was complicit, Chris Gunness had become its public face, appearing everywhere and even breaking down during one broadcast.
Now Gunness has suffered another breakdown, this time on Twitter.
Gunness lost his cool over an op-ed written by a Palestinian Arab and published in the Jerusalem Post which blamed UNRWA for prolonging the suffering of his people in order to justify its existence and deepen its coffers.
Bassem Eid, the author of that op-ed, is the founder and director of the Jerusalem-based Palestinian Human Rights Monitoring Group. His piece in the Post criticized UNRWA:
The criticism from one of his "wards" seem to have unhinged the UNRWA spokesman who began calling for a boycott of the Jerusalem Post.
Op-eds obviously don't require quotes. The Jerusalem Post is centrist in its editorial line and hardly ultra-right. And none of that had anything to do with Bassem Eid who is neither Israeli nor right wing.
But a nerve had been touched and it all went downhill from there while Gunness ranting on Twitter about the Jerusalem Post being a Jewish terrorist group.
Then Gunness started talking about himself in the third person.
He claimed that a blog so anonymous that he wouldn't name it was to blame.
Gunness responded to the fact that UNRWA schools had stored weapons and its staffs supported Hamas by accusing the Jerusalem Post of "storing" a terrorist supporter.
What any of this had to do with an op-ed written by an Arab human rights critic remained unanswered. And unhinged.

UNRWA should be defunded, but that a-hole needs to be accidentally euthanized during the IAF response to Hamas’ next terrorist attack.
Looking at the twerp who is the subject of this, I’m guessing UNWRA is something bad, but what does the acronym stand for. If it’s anything UN related, I don’t make it a point to trash up my memory keeping up with their foolishness. Telling everyone in the article what it is would be a good thing.
He is angry that one of his slaves figured out that he is a slave.

I hate to be this stupid but I do not understand the US leftist ideology that has lead them to so despise Israel sand side with Hamas....In my mind it seems simply deranged to side with the palestinian cause.
Thanks.
De nada.
lol That’s brilliant. I’m going to start using that.
You’re not being stupid. But it isn’t US leftist ideology, it’s leftist ideology, period. Even the leftists in Israel have the same view, exact and exquisite.
I only steal the best.
The left long ago came to the conclusion that they should undermine Western Society, to pave the way for their takeover.
Antonio Gramsci, an Italian representative to the Communist International from the early 20th century is often credited with this strategy, even though elements can be found in Marx and even earlier.
Gramsci analyzed Machiavelli’s writings on dictatorial politics. Machiavelli pointed out that if you conquer a land that was ruled by a powerful monarch, it is relatively easy to hold by replacing one despot for another - the whole population is already accustomed to servitude and fear. If you conquer a free republic though, governed by its own laws (as existed then in what is now Italy and Switzerland), such a land is difficult to hold. He recommended that you must first lay waste to it, like Rome did to Carthage.
Gramsci advocated a “decades long march through the institutions” to infiltrate and undermine the pillars of Western Society and lay the culture to waste, until things were so chaotic that the people would cry out for a strong man to rule over them.
The KGB funded and conducted long term operations to achieve that objective right up till its name change to the FSB. Just recently, the state oil company of Russia was revealed to be conducting such an influence operation against their American competitors, by funnelling tens of millions of dollars through a Bermuda Corporation to the Sea Change organization, for distribution to American environmentalist organizations to campaign against fracking.
In the past, the left has consistently targeted pillars of Western culture such as religion, family structure, morality, rule of law; in addition to things like foreign policy and disarmament. Breaking up alliances has always been a key objective of the old Soviet Union, and inculcated the American Left for generations, becoming ingrained dogma.
The National Socialist (Nazi) leftists sponsored and trained the Muslim Brotherhood as their main Arab/Islamic political force. Yasser Arafat’s uncle, a Muslim Brother, friend of its founder, and the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem: became the Nazi’s main Arabic language broadcaster from Berlin. He was named honorary commander of the SS Handschar Division(s) of muslim volunteers.
After the war, Muslim Brotherhood underground networks and terrorist organizations such as Yasser Arafat’s PLO became clients of the Soviet Union. Hamas, as declared in its charter, is a local branch of the Muslim Brotherhood.
So the alliance between the radical/communist left and Islamic terrorists (in particular the Muslim Brotherhood) is long and deep, even if often covert and masked with lies and disinformation.
Their objective is to rule as dictators - their storylines are just their tactic to achieve power.
