Hamas has been intimidating UNRWA officials, in an effort to direct UNRWA and other aid funds to designated Hamas officials.  Hundreds of millions of dollars a year, or should one say Euros, are at stake.  A Gaza paper warned that any organization that doesn’t submit to Hamas orders would be forced out of Gaza.  Hamas, you may recall, stole much humanitarian aid meant for the people there  (http://www.israelnationalnews.com/  Arutz-7, 7/24).  Hamas also took over funds sent to Gaza by the P.A..  Union officials affiliated with Hamas have been meeting with aid officials  (http://www.imra.org.il/  Independent Media Review Analysis, 7/24).
