Shalev: Rights Council obsessed with Israel     Yitzhak Benhorin
1. Get out of the UN now. There is nothing united about it.
S.   (10.30.09)
2. The UN is united in their racism and hatred
The UN's majority routinely violate the UN Charter and are obsessed with their desire to have the Arabs finish their genocidial campaign
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (10.30.09)
3. this is our world..you hear beilinists..this is what this
world is. It does not matter what the Jews do and dont do. They will hate the Jews (Israel) no matter what.
Dan ,   USA   (10.30.09)
4. Absurd interpretation of humanitarian law.
New parameters for future conflicts between Israel and Arab terror organizations and armies have been established by the International Committee of the Red Cross. Based on what the ICRC calls International Humanitarian Law, the assumption of Goldstone's Report is that a clear differentiation was not made between civilian and military targets; even when the civilian population is sympathetic to and involved with the enemy and is used, willingly or not, as shields, the IDF has no right to attack. These invalid assertions can only be rejected energetically and without delay. But most important, not only Israel is concerned as explained at : http://xrl.us/bfq4r7

6. Islam Controls the UN
The US was the chief superpower hindering the growing tide of radical Islam until it has been taken out of the way by self destruction from within. Now Islam has no real restraint in it's global dominance agenda. They already control the UN and the EU. This is why Israel alone is targeted and the murderers for moon god allah have a green ling with no hinderance as we see with Hamas and Hezbollah and no real restraint on Iran. According to Revelation 6 ,the second rider on the red horse which I believe is Iran will be given a great victory and finish off the US with her large coalition of nations. This is why I watch developments on the Iran front and ignore the EU diversion. One Organization you probally never heard about that controls,intimidates and pressures the West with ease is The OIC -Organization of Islamic Conference- is a unique organization — one that has no equivalent in the world. It unites the religious, economic, military, and political strength of 56 states. By contrast, the European Union represents half as many states and is a secular body only, and the Vatican — which speaks for the world’s 1.1 billion Catholics — is devoid of any political power. Many Muslims in the West resist the OIC’s tutelage and oppose its efforts to supplant Western law with sharia. But the OIC’s resources are formidable. The OIC regularly reiterates its commitments to protecting the political, historical, religious, and human rights of Muslims in non-OIC states, especially Muslims who form the majority in specific regions of non-Muslim countries — such as the southern Philippines, southern Thailand, and western Thrace in Greece — as well as Muslims in places like the Balkans, the Caucasus, Myanmar, India, and China. The OIC supports Hamas and the Palestinians in their struggle to destroy Israel, as well as the Muslim fight for "legitimate self-determination" in "Indian-occupied Jammu and Kashmir." It has condemned the "continual Armenian aggression against Azerbaijan," and it expresses its full solidarity with "the just cause of the Muslim Turkish people of Cyprus" and with Sudanese President Omar Hassan Al-Bashir, whom many hold responsible for encouraging the massacres in Darfur. The seat of the OIC is in Jeddah, but the organization regards that location as temporary: Its headquarters will be transferred to al-Kods (Islamized Jerusalem) when that city has been "liberated" from Israeli control. In its efforts to defend the "true image" of Islam and combat its defamation, the organization has requested the UN and the Western countries to punish "Islamophobia" and blasphemy. Among the manifestations of Islamophobia, in the OIC’s view, are European opposition to illegal immigration, anti-terrorist measures, criticism of multiculturalism, and indeed any efforts to defend Western cultural and national identities. The OIC has massive funding from oil sources, which it lavishly spends on the Western media and academia and in countless "dialogues." It influences Western policy, laws, and even textbooks through pressures brought by Muslim immigrants and by the Western nations’ own leftist parties. Hence, we have seen Kristallnacht-like incitements of hate and murder against European Jews and Israel conducted with impunity in the cities of Europe — where respect for human rights is supposed to be one of the highest values.

7. the first A1 lesson; don't attack the jury
isolating the Jewish state intentionally? No!, Israel is already isolated. There is no time to waste.
observer   (10.30.09)
8. Why is Shalev thanking Libya exactly?
Why are we always trying to reach out to these Muslims? Tell the UNHR that we will never participate in a nothing body of people anymore. Stop thanking, stop trying and tell them to go to hell if you don't like it. That's what they like.
Eyal ,   USA   (10.30.09)
9. Marcel, Florida

Observer, Nour, Marco and resistor don't duck this question.....

12. You're not the only one you know.
The HRC has an obsession with certain countries, usually because they dare to critizise Islam. It's not just Israel although the HRC certainly hates Israel the most. Just ignore these lunatics, it's the only reasonable thing to do.
David ,   Switzerland   (10.30.09)
13. # 5 wiz
first of the UN of 1948 is a very different one than the current organziation. In 1948 the UN voted to make Israel a country which consisted of 60% desert!!! The second Israel became a country it was attacked by all of its arab neighbors. The same thing happened again in 1956, 1967, 1972 and again happening today. Where was this UN when suicide bombers reigned terror on Israel. THE UN IS A RACIST CORRUPT ORGANIZATION run and supported by a bunch of anti-semites. And this is supported by actual FACTS.

14. Makes Perfect Sense To ME
All one must do is consider the countries who sit on the UN's HRC. I think a country should be required to actually have implemented some form of human rights within its borders before being a member of the HRC.
Christy ,   Boston, US   (10.30.09)
15. the UN created modern Israel...
now bit by piece everytime there is a major crisis Israel must give away its land....even if after you get to the original borders there will be futher demands for israel to give concessions because of Hamas ,fatahs & Hezbolahs goal of completely getting rid of ISRAEL... .....SO UN And Hamas suporters why must Israel support its own demise????
Galut ,   Selah   (10.30.09)
16. Wiz #5 I take it history is not your long suit
The UN did NOT vote to create Israel. That was in the works 28 years BEFORE the UN was created. The only thing that the UN did was illegal vote to give away major parts of Israel to a group of people that were bent on genocide and remove what they perceived the protection that they had from the Arabs. Instead of rolling over and dying on command, we not only survivied but thrieved. All to their consternation. Ever since they have been doing their best to rectify that ever since.
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (10.30.09)
17. Obsession
The Human Rights Council is slightly less obsessed with Israel than the ADL is with anti-Semites. Let's not even mention the European events of WWI. Bad things have happened to many groups, cultures, and people throughout history, but no one demands what one particular group does, that it be annointed with the Guinness World Book Record and the rest of us must devote a day to this. Take a ticket and get in line, Holocausts have occurred to the Chinese, Irish, Armenians, Native Americans, Cambodians and that's just in the last 200 years. If you go back to ancient history there are plenty of cultures that were literally wiped out. The Human Rights Council should purse the prosecution of war criminals to its furthest extent. The Weisenthal Center certainly has.

18. History
we should all compare and discuss who wrote the history books we are reading. By combining them we might be able to get some truth out of it.

If your posting was a spear, would it ever come to a point?!

21. #5, Gee Wizy ! Where were you and your
egalitarian and moralizing voice when Israel and her cities were riddled by hienous terrorist attacks blowing young and old to pieces and splattering blood and human flash everywhere? Where was your ugly voice then? Preparing another attack on the Jews and Israel? Demonizing Israel as so many millions of terrorist Arabs have been doing for the past 100 years? Or, maybe, inciting hateful Christians against Israel? Why should you defend such a redundant and parasite organization as the United Nations of the Arab majority? I will tell you why - because they have been busy issuing condamnation after condemnation for the past 60 years against one and only one democratic nation. Guess who? ISRAEL, of course. Do you now understand how Huge a Monster you are by writing what you did? I guess not, but then you may not be the only guilty one here. It's the poisoned milk you were fed on when you were young and your insistence to hate afterwards.

22. Israel is a democracy honoring the foundations of freedom???
Yeah right..... Tell that to the millions of Palestinians who are forced to live under your draconian rule as you steal their water and land from them.. Israelis need to stop whining and recognize that it is not just the Arab world that is fed up with Israel, but in fact the entire world. Change your ways, or prepare to be isolated and sanctioned by the world just as your former friends the South African's once where.

23. #9 The other Marcel - It's not paranoia...
if they're really out to get you. Marcel of Florida has a point (sort of). Nearly one-third (57 states) of all UN members are Islamic states. Yes, Muslims didn't blow up the space shuttle, but they did Allah's bidding on the World Trade Center. And Muslim didn't assassinate President Kennedy, but a Palestinian did murder his brother, presidental candidate Robert Kennedy. By the way, it's true Muslim didn't "cuase" the American Civil War, but they were the primary suppliers of slaves to the Confederate states.

24. Ambassador Shalev, wake up
For 62 years Israel has been obsessed with the Arabs of Palestine, starting in 1948 when it conducted ethnic cleansing massacres clearly described by Ilan Pappe and in Ben Gurion's diary. It practices apartheid daily. The Arabs of Israel are discriminated against. You have an apartheid state. And in the midst of this you always demolish Palestinian homes and steal more and more Palestinian Arab land under the guise of "natural expansion". Since Israel's obsession with doing things illegally is 62 years long, it is right, in the name of justice, for the UNHRC to be obsessed with Israel's much longer obsession.

30. Norway POS #22
Norway used to be a nice country, then they got taken over by Muslims. "draconian rules"...you mean like those Hamas force upon their population or Assad in Syria or Hez'b-allah in Lebanon...all fascist states that you love so much. Who built the universities in the West Bank, idiot. There were none before 1967. Who provided work for thousands of Palis before they thought it was easier to just blow up Jews. Even the worst in the West Bank is better than the best in Syria or south Lebanon. Have you been to Ramallah or Jenin lately and seen how its prosperous? So draconian, you stupid putz! Try leaning some truth instead of that propaganda you read, if that's possible. As for the UN, totally worthless like you!
