Fast forward to 2022 and the UN still does not show the slightest interest in seeing these camps closed by their host authorities – the PLO in the West Bank since 1995 and Hamas in Gaza since 2007.
In failing to call for the camps to be closed - the UN is condoning the continuation of those Palestinian Arabs living in Gaza and the West Bank - claiming refugee status -being divided into two different groups living in two very different environments:
- One group: confined to these 27 camps suffering severe overcrowding problems, poor personal safety, high unemployment and poor infrastructure which are breeding grounds for planning and launching terrorist attacks on Israel and
- The other group: living normal lives in Gaza and West Bank towns and villages

Even their classification as refugees is questionable as they continue to reside in a different part of former Palestine to where they or their families previously lived.
The UN's failure to condemn and demand an end to this apartheid being practised in Gaza and the West Bank is disgusting.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres' continuing silence makes a mockery of everything the UN claims it stands for.
Albanese will continue to pursue the UN's anti-Israel agenda whilst 800000 Palestinian Arabs continue to suffer confinement in these degrading and dehumanizing camps.
