31. Absolutely ridiculous!!!
DR ,   Florida, USA   (06.18.11)
What a fu_$^@ JOKE!!!
32. UN is a joke , kick them out of NY and send them to saudi ar
rachel ,   usa   (06.18.11)
arabia .....The USA will be better off . They are useless and don't defend anyone . Its a country club for dictators who want party in NY since they can't do it in their degenerate countries .
33. HRC keeps clause dedicated to Israel
David ,   Beverly Hills, USA   (06.18.11)
Israel should resign from the U.N., absolving it of its Arab/Muslim?Communist/TIn-Pot third world nations. It's a pogrom hiding behind a false, perfidious, and hate mongering horde of anti-Semites. By doing so, Israel removes itself from the hordes that are hell-bent on its destruction.
34. Did Britain, France & Germany vote yes
Rachel ,   US   (06.18.11)
If so, Israel should not participate in the Quartet.
35. Are you joking?
Mark ,   USA   (06.18.11)
Human rights??? Oh, Syria isn't violating anybody's human rights?! What a crock! Every country but Israel violates their people's rights, but Israel is the sacrificial lamb. The U.N. is a very sick organization...thanks Franklin for saddling the US with stinking fish.
36. Best comedy in town
Tahl   (06.18.11)
This is the same corrupt and inept organization which failed to criticize Assad's Syria with crimes against humanity. I stopped getting mad at these votes, they actually serve as good comic relief.
37. HRC targetting Israel ? Strange as I
DT ,   TA Israel   (06.18.11)
was just thinking how silent the Left had been over War crimes in Syria- totally predictyable. The mockery Syria and Iran makes of the UN "demands". How sad Israel doeds not treat the UN with similar contempt and the HRC
38. Ashamed....thats what I am
rihard ,   the hague holland   (06.18.11)
39. So pathetic
Eran ,   Europe   (06.18.11)
If any more evidence was needed for the view that the lives of a palestinian is worth thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of somalians, sudanese, syrians, and the list goes on...
40. UN lost its legitimacy long ago
Mikey   (06.17.11)
North Korea, China, various Islamic/Arab dictatorships (like Iran, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Libya), African countries pass ludicrous decisions targeting only one country while slaughtering their own people, committing torture, rape, women oppression, revoking people of their basic rights. UN is no longer needed, and there's an alternative - the nations of the Western World should create the League of Democracies and dictate an entrance check, approving only countries that meet the entrance requirements. Until then, the UN is just a laughing stock; If Israel "violates" humane rights, in comparison: some countries around the world have no right to even exist.
41. UN HRC
Ger ,   Raanana, Israel`   (06.18.11)
Gee, it's hard to believe that all of our "good friends" like Germany, Poland, Italy, France, India, etc., voted for this resolution. With good friends like these, we hardly need any enemies.
42. why only israel??? what about....
double standards   (06.18.11)
syria, lybia, turey, (freedom 4 kurdistan!) jordan, iran, russia, china, sudan, darfur, pakistan....... i've got more if u want. to be continued.
43. while Syria and Libya murder their own citizens
stop funding the UN   (06.18.11)
Syria and Libya murder thousand of their own citizens, but the HRC keeps fighting Israel. US, Canada and Israel should not give money to the UN.
44. Israel will survive - in contrary of UN
Marek ,   EU   (06.18.11)
45. HRC reflects badly on UN credibility
bernard ross ,   st anns bay jamaica   (06.18.11)
46. It is obvious that UN is corrupt and illegitimate
Cynic ,   USA   (06.18.11)
47. I think it is good thing for Israel.
leo ,   usa   (06.18.11)
It offers Israel an opportunity to write off HRC as biased organization and completely disregard it.
48. It sounds anti-semitic
Dov ,   USA   (06.18.11)
49. To: No. 19
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.18.11)
Are you a lawyer? I'm guessing you're not. So here's a news flash: Israel acquired Judea and Samaria in the course of fighting a DEFENSIVE -- get that? DEFENSIVE -- war against Jordan. Judea and Samaria are NONSOVEREIGN -- get that? NONSOVEREIGN -- territories. I guess it's a little much to expect you to go to law school but, were you to do so, you would learn that Israel has every right to settle, keep and even ANNEX -- get that? ANNEX -- Judea and Samaria. When it does -- and it will -- it will repatriate Judea and Samaria's Arab residents to Jordan because they are, after all, Jordanian citizens. You should really acquire some knowledge if you want to be taken seriously in this forum. Or go to law school before offering up sweeping statements about what is and is not legal. P.S. Mind telling me when there has EVER -- EVER -- at any time in history, been a country called "Palestine?" What was its capital city? Who were its rulers? What was their coin of the realm? You are SO out of your league here, boychik. You are going to get made into mincemeat. Tread lightly.
50. How do UN members explain "shameful act" to their children?
Abraham ben Jacob ,   Canada   (06.18.11)
51. I could not agree with the author more
Tomek ,   Poland   (06.18.11)
"a continuing and skewed focus on Israel while ignoring OTHER dictatorships and blatant human rights violations"
52. What a bullshit organization
Dan Planer ,   Israel   (06.18.11)
53. israel is a biggest threat to human rights than iran???
jessica   (06.18.11)
shame on them...
54. Perhaps we should do all the crimes we
jason white ,   afula, israel   (06.18.11)
are falsely accused of? Then maybe they would leave us alone? I do not know why we send out medical teams to treat and teach others or rescue teams and supplies. These countries still hate us and would gladly see us destroyed. The hell with all of them, except for the U.S.,Canada and Palua! The U.S. should have told the u.n. to leave New York in three months. Use the buildings for a Democratic Nations Organization.
55. Let's get the f***k out of that club !!!
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.18.11)
56. Just do what it takes to get off the list.
Ernest ,   Jerusalem   (06.18.11)
57. #9, Chaim. Excellent idea!
tanya ,   tel aviv israel   (06.18.11)
58. #2: Israel is engaged in a war for her survival.
Vardina   (06.18.11)
Yet, when Jews fight back instead of surrendering willingly to their murderers they are accused of violating "human rights". Is it not time for you and your likes to realise how inhuman you are instead of spreading hatred?
59. #3: Yes, and others - all abiding by the rules
Vardina   (06.18.11)
of human rights.
60. Continued European policy of blaming Jews
Vardina   (06.18.11)
for every economic and social disaster Europe brings on itself. Muslims join, naturally, as they did prior to and during WW2.
