UN official condemns Islamic Jihad rocket attacks, loses job

 From Times of Israel

“The UN has removed the head of one of its offices serving the Palestinians after she posted a tweet in which she condemned Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s ‘indiscriminate rocket fire’ during the recent Gaza conflict, a UN spokesperson has confirmed to The Times of Israel.

“The revelation came days after Sarah Muscroft tweeted her support for the ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinian terror group after three days of fighting.

“Muscroft, who had been based in East Jerusalem, came under massive criticism from pro-Palestinian activists who said she was blaming Palestinians for the latest round of violence and was failing to hold Israel responsible.”

She later deleted the Tweet, calling it “ill-informed.” Her e-mail account says she is on “annual leave.”
