Paul Danahar, the man who runs the BBC's news operation across the Americas and who was previously the BBC’s Bureau Chief in Middle East & Asia, doesn't think the Trump administration's cutting of aid to UNRWA is a good idea:
And if you were wondering what Paul's take on Trump/McCain is (as you surely were), then you need wait no longer:
Remarkable moment at John McCain's funeral as his weeping daughter rebukes President Trump, the only major political figure not present, saying “The America of John McCain has no need to be made great again because America was always great" bringing applause from the congregation. President Trump,the politician, will brush off his ostracism from the US political establishment, symbolised by his absence from McCain’s funeral. But I suspect for Trump the man, who has always wanted the respect of his peers, his absence & isolation will sting him greatly. John McCain memorial is, probably by the design of the man himself, a rallying cry against what in life he saw as the Trump era’s assault on the cornerstones of America life: public service & duty.
