    First country to backtrack on this issue (that i heard) and I hope it won’t be the last one.

        Canada’s next regular payment to the organization was not due until April

        I agree with your point though.

    Right on, Canada! Who knows, we might be the U.S.'s guinea pig to measure the reaction to any change that might help Gaza.

      Interesting thought. You’d think they have comprehensive and regular polling about public opinion on these issues, but who knows. This issue surely does seem like on of those that are hard to gauge and is probably shifting rapidly over time.

        Polling hasn’t been as reliable over the past few years as it has historically. Most younger people (under like 50 probably) don’t answer their phone unless they recognize the number. Polling disproportionately represents a smaller group of people.

    So it’s now proven that israel lied about UNRWA being infested with Hamas as that was their “reason” to stop the aid.

      Least surprising development since the thousandth time it turned out that the school or hospital they just bombed was not in fact a secret Hamas base…

        Israel can just keep lying since our media avoids showing that every lie gets debunked after a week

        We’re already on to the next lie of the UN using Zaka as “evidence” for rape. On the front page of every “news” paper of course, making sure to editorialize the headline as hard as possible to support these Zaka claims.
