UNRWA Schools: Gaza's Dual-Purpose 'Safe Zones' Until Bombing Again
Al Jazeera reports schools in Gaza are now 'shelters by night,' framing it as a functional solution. This sanitization sidesteps the inconvenient truth that these schools *are* shelters precisely because the homes they once knew have been systematically erased. UNRWA's own data from February 2024 confirmed Israeli forces have damaged or destroyed over 70 UNRWA facilities, many serving as shelters.
The cycle of destruction followed by 'humanitarian solutions' crafted by the aggressor is a brutal absurdity. One might wonder why the news isn't focused on accountability for turning a civilian population's homes into rubble, rather than celebrating their forced relocation to temporary learning-cum-survival centers. This isn't resilience; it's forced adaptation. While we're meant to applaud the
ingenuity of children learning amidst genocide, the U.S. Congress, with bipartisan support often bolstered by AIPAC donations , continues to approve billions in aid to Israel, despite the clear and documented targeting of civilian infrastructure. The same politicians who decry civilian casualties then vote for the very weapons that cause them. (How many 'last warnings' before the world
acknowledges the system is working exactly as intended?)
