UN Anti-Israel Bias Continues

Did anyone ever think that the UN would end anti-Israel bias? No, that would be ridiculous.

The UN once again has demonstrated an anti-Israel bias. A resolution was drafted that condemns Israel’s actions in Gaza, which killed 20 Hamas terrorists. It makes no mention, however, of the barrage of Quasam rockets that led to the operation. The meeting was called for by Egypt and the PA. More here.

Did you know that (from the ADL):

• Of 10 emergency special sessions called by the U.N. General Assembly (GA), six have been about Israel. No emergency sessions have been held on the Rwandan genocide, ethnic cleaning in the former Yugoslavia, or the two decades of atrocities in Sudan.
• A series of anti-Israel resolutions are passed each year by the GA.
• The U.N. Human Rights Council, which replaced the Commission on Human Rights in March 2006, has been no better than its hopelessly ineffective predecessor, with Israel remaining the most consistent target for unjustified vilification and demonization.
• For decades Israel was the only member nation consistently denied admission into a regional group. The Arab states continue to prevent Israeli membership in the Asian Regional Group, Israel’s natural geopolitical grouping. As a result, Israel sought entry into the Western and Others Group (WEOG) and in May 2000 was granted admission to that regional group in New York, but not in Geneva, the seat of several U.N. bodies and subsidiary organizations. Israel’s full participation in the U.N., therefore, is still limited and it is restricted from participating in U.N.-Geneva based activities.

The UN is constantly anti-Israel. Anyone who says otherwise is either a lier or in denial. Either way, this needs to change.
