переводUNRWA’s top lobbyist? The Israeli government
Leading Israeli politicians rarely have a good word for UNRWA, but it is no secret that the defense establishment is very much in favor of the agency’s survival, arguing that its services are necessary to prevent a humanitarian disaster that would ultimately end in violence against Israel.
Indeed, Israel is “the number one lobbyist for this organization,” Wilf charged, arguing that both the army and the political leadership are satisfied with the status quo.
One might think that UNRWA and the IDF have a secret treaty to support each other, she joked.
“The military doesn’t care about five years from now. It says, right now UNRWA doesn’t fight me. What it doesn’t understand is that UNRWA is making sure that the Palestinians will have recruits forever to fight Israel,” she said.
“My argument is that militaries don’t understand narratives. Militaries don’t understand that consciousness and words determine action.”
Given her views, foreign diplomats are surprised to hear that Wilf considers herself a leftist, she said.
“I say to them, it’s seriously very simple. East of the Green Line: not us. West of the Green Line: not them.”
