SDNY COURTHOUSE, April 22 – The UN under Antonio Guterres has attempted to cover up the role of its UNRWA in the October 7 attacks.
Now with a lawsuit pending against the UN in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, Guterres has named longtime UN official Ian Martin to "review" the mission.
Inner City Press, which was a resident correspondent covering and questioning the UN under Kofi Annan and Ban Ki-moon until Guterres has it thrown out as it questioned his undisclosed financial links to China, has some experience with Martin.
When he was the UN's man in Libya, Inner City Press was leaked a copy of his plan for the copy, a plan many called imperious. See the Christian Science Monitor, here, and even Al Jazeera (whose James Bays would play a role in Inner City Press' ouster).
Martin was similarly criticized when he headed the UN mission in Nepal, amid an unresolved scandal surrounding the counting of Maoist rebels' guns. That does not bode well for the UNRWA cover up.
Martin is far from the worst UN official - but he did nothing when Guterres had Inner City Pess roughed up and banned, despite his human rights claims. And now amid UNRWA? Watch this site
