A Halloween Boo to UNICEF
Then there are such items as UNICEF’s solicitation of funds in 2009 via an Iranian bank, Bank Melli, which is blacklisted by the U.S. Treasury for its role in Iran’s proliferation rackets. UNICEF in that case was raising money for aid to Gaza, which is controlled by the Iranian-backed terrorists of Hamas. One might suppose there are better ways to help children than to funnel money to a terrorist-controlled enclave via a proliferation-prone Iranian bank. Apparently, UNICEF didn’t see it that way.
Over and over, UNICEF “partners” with thug regimes, rationalizing that this is necessary in order to deliver aid to deprived children. But UNICEF is prone to becoming so enthusiastic in its partnering that it ends up promoting precisely the dictators and thugs who cause so much suffering among children in the first place.
Earlier this month, UNICEF handed out a regional award for children’s broadcasting in the Middle East and North Africa. The winner? Iran.
Yes, the same Iran that leads the world in juvenile executions. Iran was celebrated by UNICEF under the press release headline: “Iran wins the Regional UNICEF Award for International Children’s Day of Broadcasting.” What a sweet propaganda gift for Tehran’s theocratic ruling thugs, who had just jailed an Iranian actress for three months and were threatening her with 90 lashes because she had appeared in a movie without wearing a head scarf.
While partnering with Kim Jong Il, praising Iran and bankrolling Palestinian groups putting out anti-Semitic propaganda and encouraging genocidal jihad against Israel, UNICEF is already raking in plenty of U.S. tax dollars from the U.S. government. This Halloween, if the kids want to collect coins for hungry children, surely there are private charities that can better manage the trick of delivering treats?
A troop of Girl Scouts would be more responsible with it’s funds that any of the UN organizations. The corruption of the various agencies is on a breath-taking scale.
Wow! Finally!!! Someone has noticed that our United Nations is mostly an anti-freedom organization designed to give totalitarian tyrants some cover of respectibility. When are we going to demand that U.S. tax dollars be denied to those that deny the brilliance of our founding documents. Is the First Amendment really something that can be compromised? Or the Second Amendment? To listen to Euroweenies and UN scammers you’d think that Americans only have to bend a little on these to have whirled peas. Ain’t happending. I hope our leaders are starting to wake up but I’m guessing that we won’t hear a word about it for the remaining of the silly election season.
Thanks Claudia for unmasking another fraudulent UN organization… something else you’ll never read in the MSM. Shame the world not only turns a blind eye to the the truth, but helps promote this evil by even using kids & Halloween candy to front for its evil agenda. Please keep promulgating the truth & maybe US taxpayers will finally revolt to subsidising this tyrants’paradise.
Still think halloween is a benign holiday that’s fun for kids? There are two kingdoms operating in the world today; the Kingdom of Light and the knigdom of darkness. You can’t serve both. Dressing your little kids up as demons and taking them out to shake down the neighbors for candy, desensitises them to the evils of this world, which will come back to haunt them (pun intended). In this article, the covering has been removed to expose the monster, or at least one of its many characteristics.
My company has little UNICEF boxes all over the place collecting Money for children. Its such a shame that this company is supporting this organization all in the name of Children. They don’t see what is really going on in the world.
I have never given to any UN organization other than my taxes. I don’t support it and never will. God Bless Claudia for this great article on the UN and UNICEF.
I, too, had similar Halloween experience to yours, Claudia–and just yesterday, working with a friend; I voiced my objection akin to yours (although my knowledge of the UN does not compare)!
How much uglier can an international organization–originated for the benefit of human rights worldwide–become?! Please, God, let us leave; the taxpayers have been swindled enough by the many criminals involved in the “United Nations”.

powerful truth about UN
Portraying smashing a Star of David with an accompanying call to boycott as anti-Semitic is like saying I hate ethnic Russians cuz I’m against their gov’t.
I’d be in favor of a pic showing the Congressional Black Congress logo being smashed and calling for them to be marginalized in Congress – La Raza cut off too; do I hate black folks and Latinos? An authoritative answer one way or the other needs some mind-reading.
Today’s Outrage Award goes to UNICEF’s sister agency UNESCO, which today voted to accept Palestine as a member (though it’s not a state). That should trigger a US cutoff of funds, but no doubt Obama and Clinton are trying to find a way around that cutoff. Among UNESCO’s own outrages: declaring two Jewish holy sites – the Cave of the Patriarchs and Rachel’s Tomb – to be “mosques”.
They’ll cut off funds.
It’s an election year.
(But God help Israel if/when Obama doesn’t have to worry about re-election.)
Every year we usually get one or two kids collecting for UNICEF.
I never give them one single dime, just candy.
I am sick and tired of “for the children” being used an excuse for all sorts of mischief and tyranny.
IKEA and other stores sell UNICEF Christmas cards. I wonder if they realize what they’re pushing?
The politicization of UNICEF and other UN bodies is disgraceful. What would be a viable alternative to placating dictators in order to access their hungry children in order to deliver food, vaccines and other urgently needed supplies?
