UNWRA Admits It Was Unfair To Israel

International condemnation of Israel for hitting a UN school was unfair, admits UNWRA. The admission comes as the truth emerges about the Israeli 'attack' on a school where people were sheltering from cross fire in Gaza, during Operation Cast Lead.

UN Admits: IDF Didn't Hit School During her recent response to Hamas terrorism, Israel was condemned for the deaths of civilians who had sought refuge in a United Nations school in Gaza. The incident was intensely publicised and led to Israel being condemned internationally. However, some of the most vocal critics have now acknowledged they were wrong. John Ging, the director of UN Relief And Works Agency (UNRWA), admitted to two newspapers that no shell ever hit the school. Ging made these admissions to the Toronto Globe and the London Daily Mail. Shortly after the alleged 'attack', Ging harshly criticized Israel for firing near the school, saying he had given the exact coordinates of the compound to the IDF - and accusing the IDF of deliberately ignoring them. Several international media networks jumped onto the bandwagon and also reported that the UN school had been 'attacked' by Israel. The UN Office For The Coordination Of Humanitarian Affairs went so far as to release a report stating that Israel had 'directly hit two schools'. Now it has emerged that Israel had simply been responding to terrorist fire, and that the UN school was not hit at all. A teacher who was sheltering in the school at the time, reported that fatalities were of people outside in the street who got caught in the crossfire.
