We demand the dismissal of Khulood Badawi
April 2, 2012 15:00 by Honest837Reporting
Dear Head of UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA),
We, the undersigned, demand that the UN immediately terminate its association with Khulood Badawi, an employee at the OCHA.
Badawi has proven unreliable as a source of information by using her Twitter account to spread false and harmful information about Israel. She has refused to acknowledge any wrongdoing or apologize for spreading propaganda. It is inappropriate for a UN employee to engage in political activism and the UN must disassociate itself from her immediately.
We will keep you updated on developments on this and other breaking news.
Follow the full story of Khulood Badawi’s false photo tweet:
- Top Tweet on Gaza Proven False
- Exposed: UN Media Official Responsible for False Photo Tweet
- No Accountability For UN Official’s False Photo Tweet
- Following Up: Why the Radio Silence?
- Ambassador Demands Badawi’s Dismissal

- Badawi’s Cold Correction
Thank you for your support of Israel in this cause.

As an employee at OCHA, Khulood Badawi tweet comments do not reflect her personal opinions any more than any State of Federal employee or people in exposed governmental positions anywhere. This is exactly why she made her comments. It was meant to effect and influence public opinion . unless of course she is blithering idiot which neither her credentials or affiliations suggest. As such, this was a blatant and unacceoptable abuse of mandate, and a clear breach of trust. She should be dismissed immediately and be forced to make public apology for basically a fraudulent misrepresentation in pursuit of a personal ideological agenda.

Hm… I’m not sure I agree she should be dismissed for this mistake. It was a really bad mistake, don’t get me wrong. It’s been retweeted and shared too many times to ever take it back. But still… you can’t prove she changed the facts on purpose. She may have seen this somewhere and retweeted it herself. The UN should be demanding an apology from her, and a correction that goes beyond the one she’s given. The UN should re-evaluate its employees’ use of twitter and social media, and enforce policies that avoid problems like this one. But to lose her job for this? I don’t know…

I wish you and others would not keep calling it a “Mistake”- A mistake is what you do in error-
This person knew what she was putting on her page- she would have known how the media would have treated it, should they have not been given the truth so quickly-
Its was not a MISTAKE.

Where do you find “The bad mistake”? In her the fanatic antisemitism of this woman or because she put this typical anti Israeli comment in a public place? Of course she knew how were the facts, she must be an active person in the “Pallywood” industry to produce phony news to hurt Israel.
This bias, despicable woman may be part of a terrorist ring… and she works in the UN ????

A full investigation must include:
1) How Badawi got the photo?
2) Which organization it came from?
3) Who “decided” this was a recent picture?
4) Who is influencing her?
5) Are there other such postings from her?
6) Expose how the original photo was used to incite violence and bring those people to justice as well
If this was case of a pedophile, the defendant’s PC would be confiscated to look for other such related activites. We need to demand that Badawi’s PC be siezed to get the the bottom of how such a blatant and hate-bias “mistake” was made.

I would never sign this petition even if you hold a magnum 44 to my head. I raised my children to be free, hard working and no wining. I love Palestine people, we stole their land and should return Israel to them ASAP. If you think all dispora jews are on motherlands side, get a life.

If you are who you say you are- Then I suggest you were only born a Jew- end of-
Now you explain how the Hebrews Stole land- ?
You tell us when there was ever a Palestinian state?
You tell us that Hebrews were never part of or born in or descend from the occupied terrortoy named by the Romans as Palestine (Modern day vernacular) ?
So I suggest where ever you are now- Go live among your cherished friends and be ruled by the laws of Sharia.

This representative of the UN falsified the picture data to enrage and provoke hatred against Israel. The anti-Israeli world campaign is based on lies. There is no justification to continue the charade. Is common knowledge, easily verifiable the fact that in Israel the assumed Palestinians are not victimized. The Arabs and Socialists must now give up this shameful patroness against an innocent State and innocent people around the world.
Khulood Badawi must be prosecuted and the UN must fired her in clear terms. She elaborated and publicized a complete fabrication for the purpose. Miss Badawi used her fake image to blame Israel.The incitement against Israel and Jews engaged in their demonization is a mistaken incitement. I wrote it here: I think it’s important to show how wrong is the actual vitriolic campaign even in American Universities. We need to stop all this despicable dangerous antisemitic wave. Despite Soros network, Socialist and Islamic donations.

Anama, You put the facts very clearly. All the other nonsense (supposed Jews being ashamed of being Jews, etcl.) have nothing to do with the main idea. What you said is absolutely true and clear, with no room for “spinning” and personal angst. Badawi willfully and carefully falsified the facts in order to harm to Israel and Jews. First results, the murder of three Jewish children and their rabbi in Toulouse, France, by a Muslim fanatic who had escaped from NATO prison in afghanistan. Previously he killed three French paratroopers in France, not Afghanistan. No doubt, and unfortunately, there will be more repercussions.
