Who believes Israeli allegations? Not one shred of evidence has been provided in two months yet Western governments cut funding immediately. At least Australia only suspended $6m of additional support because we'd already paid our $40m. Now the $6m is now back on and I'd support $80m given that AIPAC has twisted the arms of US Reps and Senators to suspend their $430m of UNRWA funding until 2025, resupply Israel and threaten Palestine they'd cut their aid if any Israeli is ever charged by the ICC. Why on earth does Israel deserve any support?

Same problem here in the states. At least Trump cut UNRWA funding while in office, but as soon as Biden came into the white house, he reinstituted their funding and actually increased it significantly. Any politician with an IQ over 75, knew where that UNRWA money was going, straight into the hands of Hamas.

Brown’s explicit body language gravely betrayed his lies. His covering of his mouth for no apparent reason, multiple scratching his head and face while speaking, his drifting eyes, his avoidance of eye contact, his clearly uncomfortable stance throughout the senate questioning, and his verbal insinuations against whistleblowers are all consistent with what a liar does, and he did very poorly at that in this senate questioning.
Their investigation won't be complete for weeks yet. One of their first steps will be asking for the EVIDENCE to support the ALLEGATIONS made by Israel although all the indications so far are that THERE ISN'T ANY!!!
To quote legendary Australian tele-film Blue Murder, "Some of the people you're dealing with, if they told you the sun was going to come up tomorrow, you'd get a second opinion."
Another example of over paid and under performing public servants. This last week of senate inquiries has really opened my eyes to how much of our hard earned taxpayers dollars goes to bureaucrats being paid well above their abilities. I was absolutely shocked to learn that some of these get paid well above $400K/YR
You can tell that he is lying as you see that by his body language and his lack of confidence in the way he speaks. Also the questions are not very in-depth and do not amount to much, this so called inquiry is a waste of to time and money.
Watch how he stumbles and stares as he ums and ahs through the substantial 'processes they have in place' to 'monitor UNRWA' - not mentioning a single one. He says nothing concrete or substantial about anything, except the list of employees provided to Israel annually.
Apparently UNRWA as mentioned on TV, employs 13,000 people. Who has been paying these salaries and from what funds. According to the continual reporting by the Media, the Palestinians have been living in pitiful conditions. From all the amounts of monies spent, it would be interesting to see how their plight has been improved throughout the years. Who has paid for the myriad of tunnels built? Again interesting to know.

She’s useless. She’s a slob, presents unprofessionally,has poor diction and vocal fry, and is simply reading out questions her staffers have written for her. The ALP boasts having lots of women in Parliament, but most of them are utterly useless.
How much money has UNRWA received in the last decade? Where is the money? Why are the citizens of Gaza still poor "refugees" and without infrastructure? Why didn't UNRWA report from the field that Hamas was stealing materials donated to the infrastructure? Why were UNRA study booklets found that teach murder and hatred of Jews? At whose expense were these booklets printed, illustrated, and prepared? Who is responsible for the study material that UNRA works with? Who is responsible for the UNRA employees in Gaza and the supervision of the finances? Why were many of the UNRA employees found to be supporters of terrorism according to their personal WhatsApp messages? Where did the recruitment of UNRA employees come from? So many questions so few "answers" if you can call them answers.
This clip of Marc Innes-Brown & his page-turning side kick is a prime study for body language experts. Talk about GLOW IN THE DARK practice of deception! No actor awards here, they both need to be kicked out for poor performance.
I couldn't extract a single coherent line of thought from this person testifying. Was he representing people with communication challenges? What point was he trying to make? Are the sounds "aah", "emmm"," or "errr" a form of local Aussie coloqueolisms? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 😂
UNWRA perpetuates dependency on itself, rather than enabling Palestinians to deal with developing self sufficiency. Why bother providing health care education and food for yourself when the UN does it for free?

If UNRA hasn't sorted this out in the time they have been in operation, what is the point of UNRA. the UN has another agenda here, and it's not to help the Palestinian people. why is the Australia government perpetuating the misery of the Palestinian people buy support to UNRA.
One organization with 1 billion dollars in funding for 5,6 million people, 80.000 employees of which 13.000 in Gz, 10 offices worldwide. UNHCR, 18.000 employees working in 137 countries for 89 million refugees, 10 billion dollars in funding. This should have raised alarm bells from the start. Just saying.
NGO's, Amnesty and many others have been raising allegations of UNRWA for over a decade. The problem is not necessarily each individual event, its the totality that points towards systemic failures of governance. UN has many other agencies that already perform similar functions across the globe and are quite capable of delivering this aid, UNRWA is not required.
In one way this public servant was actually refreshing. Despite providing what seemed to be agenda driven and misleading answers he did, at least, answer the questions. He did not falsely claim to either not know the answers or constantly take the question on notice and say "I will get back to you on that Senator" which most of his inept, highly paid, public service counterparts seem to use as their stock answer to everything.
This guy is not being open. DFAT typically includes relatives and close associates of proscribed persons on their lists, the total number of persons mentioned in the letter celebrating Oct 7 may not be UNRWA employees but could be relatives and close associated of UNRWA employees.

HOW on earth did this bloke get a job in foreign affairs , the tax payers have been feeding this lot since 1951 , so where do you think the money is going ?
This is quite painful to watch. The bias of Innes-Brown for a corrupt UN agency is very disturbing. Australia has contributed already too much over the decades and needs to stop...intergenerational refugee status is a ridiculous concept and only keeps milking the cash cow.
DEFUND UNRWA over 80 years teaching Palestinian to produce begging bowls. No other nation has been refugees living off handouts for so long.Enough of this playing refugees must end immediately
A very weak examination of this official by an obviously weak senator clearly not up to the task. What about the fact that Amas used UNRWA facilities to access terror tunnels.
So they funding an organisation not knowing that the services haven't been provided to terrorist since the terrorist group is in control over thoughs regions including some have been caught working for theses organisations that countries like Australia has provided aid to
Gee how nice of our Government(s) both Labor & liberal to have been giving money to such lovely, law abiding civilised countries such as Syria, Lebanon, Jordan & the West Bank & Gaza Strip areas.
What’s even more revolting about the Hamas loving foreign ministry official Innes Brown is that he is paid $237,000 a year with a $147,000 a year pension for the rest of his life
Who investigates themselves?? How can that be taken seriously?
It seems that the australian police investigate themselves. It's apparently not all that unusual. But no, not to be taken seriously.

Seems like everything that should be in place has not been followed or met. Way to go DFAT.
GUTERREZ, UNRWA, LAZZARINNI, ALBANESE and my latest addition Martin Griffiths must be on the pay of Iran or Hamas, don't you think?
Chairwoman cannot address what's the accusation against UNRWA.
Good to see Australian politicians failing on so many levels. Wong in action is a disaster
unrwa is rotten tot the core
LIARS
DEFUND UNRWA over 80 years teaching Palestinian to produce begging bowls. No other nation has been refugees living off handouts for so long.Enough of this playing refugees must end immediately
A very weak examination of this official by an obviously weak senator clearly not up to the task. What about the fact that Amas used UNRWA facilities to access terror tunnels.
I notice Bully Wong left the room!!!!
So they funding an organisation not knowing that the services haven't been provided to terrorist since the terrorist group is in control over thoughs regions including some have been caught working for theses organisations that countries like Australia has provided aid to
Every second word is UM which tells me he is lying through his teeth and very uncomfortable with the line of questioning
No money to Hamas
Gee how nice of our Government(s) both Labor & liberal to have been giving money to such lovely, law abiding civilised countries such as Syria, Lebanon, Jordan & the West Bank & Gaza Strip areas.
I tried to count the number of 'ums' but lost count and this is a senior Government official?
What’s even more revolting about the Hamas loving foreign ministry official Innes Brown is that he is paid $237,000 a year with a $147,000 a year pension for the rest of his life
Truth shall set you free. Otherwise probably get paid on lying or not fit for the job.
