Sun-Times on UN/Hamas scandal

The Chicago Sun-Times has an staff editorial today castigating the UN for employing Hamas members:

[I]f you’re a terrorist who brutally murders innocents or a sympathizer who supports such crimes, to further some political cause, you can’t be held any less accountable because you help people on your “good” days… It’s bad enough that the UN hasn’t taken a more active role in censuring Palestinian terrorism and recognizing Israel’s legitimate defense needs. To harbor Hamas terrorists or their sympathizers in the name of humanitarian good is a crime in and of itself.

See the HonestReporting communique on this topic, which called for media outlets to respond precisely as the Sun-Times has — taking a responsible stand against the UNRWA.
