UNICEF Supports Palestinian Hate Ad

An ad by the Palestinian Youth Association for Leadership and Rights Activation [PYALARA], which is funded by UNICEF, shows an axe destroying a Star of David. The UNICEF logo is right on the ad—another example of the misuses of UN funding. The large Star of David that has been destroyed has on it pictures of stars and stripes, presumably representing the USA and an additional smaller Star of David.

PYALARA has been funded by UNICEF since the year 2000. “PYALARA has been chosen by UNICEF as a major strategic partner in Palestine,” states the PYALARA Web site. On the axe that destroys the Star of David is the word “Boycott!” in the imperative tense. Youth are invited to watch the PA TV program calling for a boycott of Israel.

The host acknowledges that they are aware that the boycott is illegal, but they have chosen to ignore this. “We know that the Palestinian Authority is tied to a number of agreements that prohibit it from completely boycotting Israel…We call upon all the youth, to all the residents, to all businesses and stores, to completely boycott the Israeli goods in their stores.”

The following is information about PYALARA from its Web site: “Since December 2000, PYALARA has produced, with the support of UNICEF and the cooperation of Palestine TV, a weekly two-hour TV program called Speak Up. An average of 300,000 Palestinian children and teenagers watch every episode.”
