It has long been known that the UN, driven by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), has covertly and in some cases overtly supported and supplied the jihad against Israel. UN observers in Lebanon were known to aid and abet terror ops against Israel.
UNRWA is the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, whose mission has long been co-opted by Jew-haters.
That’s why the U.S. State Department announced that it was withholding $110 million from UNRWA. This was long overdue.

But now Belgium and the Netherlands, overrun with Muslim Jew-haters, are pandering to their new overlords and rushing to fund UNRWA on their own. It shows their true colors, and their readiness to aid and abet Jew-hatred.
“Belgium, Netherlands to supplement UNRWA funds cut by U.S.,” JTA, January 21, 2018 (thanks to Mark):
The Netherlands and Belgium pledged a total of $38 million for the UN agency that provides aid to Palestinians following US funding cuts of $110 million.
Belgium’s government pledged $23.3 million in extra funding for UNRWA and the Dutch government said it would fast-track another $15 million in funding.
The United States announced its cuts on Thursday. State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert told reporters that a $45 million payment pledged for the UNRWA food aid program would not go through for the time being.

In the Netherlands, International Aid Minister Sigrid Kaag, who used to work for UNRWA and is married to a Palestinian former Cabinet minister, said she would make available immediately her country’s annual budget of $15 million for UNRWA, which was planned to be dispensed in several payments.
Three lawmakers, including one from the ruling People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy, submitted questions to Kaag in parliament this week about the decision.
“Why are you fast-tracking funding for UNRWA when there are so many potential groups with urgent needs?” they asked.
Israel has accused UNRWA institutions of harboring terrorist activities against Israel. In October, a Hamas tunnel was discovered under a UNRWA-run school in the Gaza Strip. Israel has also accused UNRWA teachers of using anti-Semitic and anti-Israel textbooks. And Israel has charged that UNRWA’s definition of refugee perpetuates Palestinian intransigence and suffering.
UNRWA has taken various steps to address anti-Israel and antisemitic content in its schools. It also maintains that it opposes any militant activity on its institutions or by its staff.
“The agency that perpetuates the Palestinian refugee problem and narrative of erasing Zionism — and this is the first time this thing is challenged,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said last year. “It’s a good thing that they’re moving forward and challenging this body.”…
