Leaving out the reference scale for a number is bad reporting at least.
- halJordan 3y agoPlease, the group is always responsible for the activities of its members. Employers more-so for their employees where actual legal responsibility lies. There's a trivially small number of gun owners who are shooting up schools; but many people have no problem condemning the group. Only a select few chick fil a employees dislike homosexuality but it's fine to boycott the establishment. All that just to say the actions of the few do reflect on the whole.
- bjoli 3y agoChick-fil-a was the company donating to anti-gay-marriage causes and the COO made some pretty nasty comments. And people don't mainly criticise gun owners. They criticize the laws making it possible for crazy people to have access to guns. It is not like hamas support was part of their official UNRWA duties.

- bjoli 3y agoIt is surprisingly well timed just after the ICJ ruling, as if meant to hide the actual news. I don't like being conspiratorial, but most of the people employed by UNRWA are Palestinian refugees. Just by looking at the numbers it shouldn't be surprising that there was some overlap.
