United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) is a charitable group chartered under the UN. I am not and have never been a fan. When it comes to UNICEF, I can think of plenty other charitable organizations doing wonderful things for children. This time UNICEF has really crossed the line into the dark side.
UNICEF has decided to partner with the International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO) based in Saudi Arabia. On the surface everything looks legit and alright, but then you find out the IIRO has been designated as a terrorist group by the United States and the UN itself!
In August 2006, the US Treasury Department designated two branches of the IIRO as terrorist organizations because they provided money and support to groups linked to al Qaeda including Abu Sayyaf in the Phillipines.
A former member of this group in the Philippines testifies a limit amount of foreign funding for the IIRO goes to legitimate projects and the rest of the money goes to terrorist operations.
This group, as well as others, is on the UN 1267 Committee’s consolidated list of individuals and entities associated with the Taliban, al Qaeda and Osama Bin Ladin.
I have asked it before, and I will ask it again. Why are we still a part of the UN? Why do we continue to fund the UN? The UN is the biggest waste of taxpayer money ever!
