This is why we need to get out of the UN.
This isn’t really new. I’ve been writing for a while about how the financial schemes in Afghanistan worked.
The Taliban weren’t making money from drug sales, but from ‘taxing’ foreign aid even long before they officially took over.
We don’t know exactly how much taxpayer money went to the Taliban, but one survey found that contractors priced in 20% to 30% from their contracts as payoffs. More formally, the Taliban tend to charge a 10% Islamic tax on income and a 2.5% Islamic wealth tax.
The Taliban had an extensive and sophisticated tax collection network long before they took Kabul which included all the usual elements of bureaucracy, registration, certificates, and assessments. They even have “NGO coordinators” who work with non-profit groups.
As an Economist article noted, “Britain’s Foreign Office had to remind ngos not to pay taxes to the Taliban.”
The Taliban at one point provided a list of non-profits that had registered with their Commission for the Arrangement and Control of Companies and Organisations. The group “included UN agencies, national and international NGOs and human rights organisations” including those that “rely on funding from a wide range of sources, including both the UN and the US government”.
That was back in 2013 when the Taliban had far less power and were less intimidating.
That is what’s in it for the Taliban, that’s in it for the UN? Also money.
Corrupt United Nations officials in Afghanistan have stolen U.S. assistance by demanding bribes to allow the aid money to flow, an American inspector general charged Wednesday.
The Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction said senior U.N. officials “personally profit” from the influx of assistance flowing into the troubled nation by taking advantage of a persistent pay-to-play culture.
Ten people, including a current U.N. official and a former official, confirmed the bribes.
The U.N. officials connect those with the money to the organizations that deliver the services. It’s those nongovernmental organizations that pay the bribes to win the contracts.
And we pay the organizations.
Several people reported that the U.N. officials were collaborating with the Taliban, the fundamentalist sect that took control of the Afghan government in 2021. That includes payments and, in some cases, demands that Taliban officials or their relatives be added as shareholders or board members of the nongovernmental organizations.
“Interviewees told SIGAR that UN officials demand bribes from companies and NGOs seeking contracts from their agencies. They said that these are calculated as a percentage of the contract at stake, with estimates varying between 5 and 50 percent,” the inspector general said in a report.
All of that is absolutely typical, not just in Afghanistan, but Gaza, Yemen and any other terrorist-controlled territory.
The standard operating procedure is to fake a humanitarian crisis, then control and resell the aid that comes in, and/or demand a cut from the organizations on the ground. On top of that these organizations have to hire terrorists so that before long, the aid groups are just an employment agency for terrorists.
That’s the way it is in Gaza where Hamas runs the so-called aid groups on the ground which is why they keep hysterically demanding that Hamas be left alone… and why Hamas demands that the UN be in charge of aid.
But it’s not just Afghanistan or Gaza, it’s every place controlled by Muslim terrorists. That’s why we really have to get out of the business of sending aid into terrorist states because we’re funding and employing Islamic terrorists.

Would that include ‘doctors without borders’ and other organizations like that? That would be quite a scoop, wouldn’t it? Corruption in the ngo’s.

Our corrupt leaders fail to understand the true threat Islam and its Muslims pose to all Non-Muslims. but paying money for protection, Jizya, is another piece of evidence of Islam’s corruption as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Quran(Quran 9:5, 29, 111, etc.).
ISLAM IS AHISTORICAL, FALLACIOUS, DECEITFUL, AND POLITICAL to conquer and to subjugate Non-Muslims(Quran 3:54; 7:99; 8:30, etc.). There is NO MECCA, NO MUHAMMAD, and NO QURAN in the 7th century AD in Saudi Arabia despite the Muslim Standard Islamic Narrative(SIN) claims. Thus, Islam is a factitious ideology imaginatively fabricated over time into the 21sth century, and there is NO PEACE with Islam and its Murderous Muslims(Quran 8:39: 9:5, 29, 111, etc.). Allah’s cursed Islam, a CRIMINAL-TERRORIST ENTERPRISE and a MURDEROUS-DEMONIC CULT OF BELIEVERS, Terrorist Muslim Soldiers for Allah, continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, mass murder, intimidation, supremacy, segregation, hatred, incitement to violence, criminality, genocide, victimhood, censorship, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Quran(Quran 5:14,35; 8:60; 9:41, 88, etc.).
Allah’s specious ideology in Qur’an 8:39 commands Muslims to fight Non-Muslims until they surrender to Muslim rule when it says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” Muslims are encouraged to conquer and subjugate every territory for Islam. Hence, Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Westerners via Tax Exempt Organizations, the Media and Hollywood, Foreign Funding, etc. because Islam violates and is incompatible with Western Laws(Quran 8:60; 9:5,29, 111; 47:4; 49:15; 60:4 etc.).
Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam and its Muslims function as a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) fighting against Non-Muslims to make Islam supreme and NOT A PEACEFUL religion under Western Law because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes Terrorist Criminal Organizations with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 2:191; 4:89, 91; 9:5,29, 111; 49:15, etc.).
Allah’s Islam, a supremacist Antichrist Ideology, is using Western Freedoms and Laws against Non-Muslims to conquer Non-Muslims under Islamic Rule. Non-Muslims should legally designate Islam as a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO) where Mosques, Muslim Schools, Islamic Centers, Sharia Courts, and Muslim Organizations are banned because of their incitement of segregation and discrimination to fight back against ISLAMIZATION, Muslim subjugation, and tyrannical violence(Quran 4:65; 9:5,29,111; 60:4; 98:6-7, etc.).
Allah’s Muslims desire to make Islam supreme. Sahih Bukhari 3126 says, “… the Prophet said, He who fights so that Allah’s Word(ie. Islam) should be superior, fights for Allah’s Cause.” Allah, the Supreme Destroyer, in Quran 9:111 says, “Surely Allah has purchased from the believers[Muslims] their souls and their money so that they may have the garden[Heavenly Paradise]. They engage in war for the sake of Allah[ie. Allah’s Cause), so they kill and are killed…”. Allah teaches that Death By Jihad leads to Muslim Paradise. Allah in Qur’an 3:169 says, “And do not consider those who were killed for the sake of Allah as dead. Yet they are alive with their lord, receiving their provision.”
Under Islam and Islamic Law, Muslims have the Legal Right and the Quranic Duty to terrorize Non-Muslims because neglecting this QURANIC DUTY is a CRIME of Blasphemy, Unbelief, and Infidelity against tyrannical Allah. Jihad means warfare against Non-Muslims to ESTABLISH ISLAM’S RELIGION AS SUPREME(Quran 3:115, 151; 9:5, 29, 111; Muslim Law Manual: “Reliance of the Traveller”, o9.0, etc.).
More specifically, Islam, a terroristic-totalitarian way of life, is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of: incitement, intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, oppression, segregation, slavery, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, sedition, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran(Quran 2:191, 208,216; 4:65, 89,91, 95, 115; 5:14,64; 8:12,39,60, 74; 9:5,21,29,36, 41,49, 73,88, 111,123; 21:92; 47:4; 49:15; 60:4; 61:9-11; 62:6; 89:14; etc.).

It appears that Government controlled foreign aid is vary corrupt and should NEVER use American tax dollars. Billions of our tax dollars are being wasted and stolen from our citizens to enrich political persons and or their relatives. Every tax dollar that is spent on Foreign Aid is money that could be helping our own citizens that are living under the poverty level.
Charity should come directly from the people through private charities NOT the government.

UN Demanded Bribes for Aid, Then Paid Bribes to Taliban
……………………………………………….
Just like Hamas, the Taliban demands money to be allowed to give aid to their own people. Yet both are treated as valid governmnts by foolish Infidels. And what are these bribes beng used for? They fund violent Jihad.
