This amendment makes very clear that nothing in the underlying bill may be construed to preclude the provision of humanitarian assistance to any agency or entity other than UNRWA.
Time and again, we have warned that today's Palestinian textbooks are producing the terrorists of tomorrow.
We need to do it. This amendment makes clear we want humanitarian aid to flow to those people in Gaza who are suffering.
I would remind my colleagues again over these many, many decades of trying to end U.S. taxpayer funding for UNRWA and to give it to other agencies that are not trying to create young people who quickly become terrorists.
