Irina Korolyova thought she had escaped the ravages of war. As a Ukrainian refugee, she fled to the Holy Land seeking peace.

But a 21-year-old jihadi, raised in an East Jerusalem refugee camp and weaned on the United Nations Relief and Works Agency’s (UNWRA) genocidal propaganda, brought war to the Ukrainian woman — killing her and six others in a deadly synagogue attack.

Elyahu and Natali Mizrahi lived near the scene of the attack. Married for just two years, the brave couple ran toward the screaming, intent on helping the injured.

The jihadi murdered Elyahu and Natali, too. By the time Israeli police arrived on the scene, the Palestinian terrorist had murdered 7 innocent Israeli civilians and wounded at least 10 others.

What fans the flames of Palestinian rage at Israel and the Jewish people?

If you want to understand such senseless violence, talk to young Palestinian students. What you’ll hear is chilling. The Center for Near East Studies captured these candid remarks:

“Yes, they teach us that the Zionists are our enemy, and we must fight them,” said a student at a refugee camp inside eastern Jerusalem.

“They teach us in school that Jews are fickle, bad people,” explains another student. “I am ready to stab a Jew and drive [a car] over them.”

“At school, they teach us that Al Aksa [the mosque on the Temple Mount], and all of Palestine is ours,” says yet another student. “I support stabbing the Jews so they will leave the country. I will become a suicide bomber; I’ll do everything for Al Aksa.”

But who is funding the poisoning of these kids with such fierce hate for Israel? Who enables the filling of young minds with venomous antisemitic lies about the Jewish people?

The short answer is that, thanks to Joe Biden, YOU and I do! Please let me explain ...

The incendiary comments I just shared with you were made by students attending schools run by UNRWA. A sprawling 1.5 billion-dollar agency with 30,000 staff members, UNRWA teaches some 500,000 Palestinian students in 700 schools in Gaza, Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, Lebanon, and Syria.

These schools — and their teachers — are notorious for vilifying Israel, for indoctrinating students with the vile lie that Israel stole their land ... and that jihad is the way to get it back.

Former President Donald Trump defunded UNRWA specifically because of their jihad-fueling agenda. But Joe Biden has restored that funding, and now only Congress can stop him.

Don’t let Joe Biden use YOUR tax money to fund terrorism against Jews. Sign our petition and/or fax Congress today!

This is an opportune time to STOP this travesty, so I must ask for your support. The anti-Israel Biden administration, along with rising antisemitism around the world, has made CIDI’s job more difficult and more important than ever.

We cannot accomplish this important work without YOUR support. Please stand with us to bless Israel by giving generously today. Make a gift to defend Israel! Select here.
