1. D'Escoto the Jew hating catholic priest communist?
Yoni   (01.15.09)
How dare we Jews fight back against Islamonazis! According to catholic dogma we are christ killers and sub human. According to islamonazi dogma we are apes and pigs. The poor gazan's were only shooting rockets at Jewish men, women and children for eight years. You know they are Jew haters when they come unglued over Jews fighting back but never mention the hundreds of thousands who have died at the hands of islomonazis in Somalia and Sudan
2. D'Escoto
Zuni ,   Carmel, USA   (01.15.09)
D'Escoto is an agent working for Chavez and Iran.....his loyalty is to Mr. Dollar and Ortega.....if you want to turn him around all Israel need is to write a bigger check than theirs......
3. Nothing about North Korea or Darfur
(01.15.09)
LOL what a sad pathetic use of people's money, time and energy
4. Nicaragua
Walt K ,   Sherbrooke, Canada   (01.15.09)
I'm stunned to find out in these times, that meaningless countries, like Nicaragua, take the opportunity to get into the anti-Israel wave.... for taking a bite...
5. Let me guess
Steve from Raleigh   (01.15.09)
The UN issued condemnation of Israel # 45,524,808. file it in the litter box.
6. ISRAEL only member state of UN (since 1948) that has NEVER
GET REAL ,   USA   (01.15.09)
been on the 15 rotating members of the UN SECURITY COUNCIL. The terrorist state of LIBYA is now on the UN SECURITY COUNCIL!
7. De escroto is just following orders
Paz ,   Latin America   (01.15.09)
De escroto did what ortega told him to do, Ortega did what Chavez told him to the de escroto, Chavez did what Ahmadinejass told hit to tell Ortega to tell De escroto
8. D'escrotum And His Condemnation
Lawrence Tendler ,   Safed Israel   (01.15.09)
Bah blah blah.Please send me a copy of the U.N condemnation,I am running low on Toilet Paper,although I find Andrex toilet tissue softer on the Hole...I mean whole.
9. Amusing how they ignore the fact that Hamas
Murray of Montreal   (01.15.09)
uses UN facilities, hospitals, schools and mosques to fire from and to store weapons. Credibility is obviously meaningless at the UN.
10. The Hamas PR machine is alive and well
Sam C ,   Tennessee   (01.15.09)
These hypocrits never uttered a word against Hamas for 8 yrs of firing rockets into Israel. In addition, the Hamas PR machine is exaggerating the civilian deaths. One-fourth of what they report is closer to the truth.
11. un did nothing to prevent rocket attacks on sderot
yahn goodey   (01.15.09)
years of rockets since gaza withdrawal and we are supposed to die quietly while the un sits on its hands doing nothing but the moment we try to defend ourselves then it is a human rights violation ,war crimes etc. ? the un hypocrites uphold the muslim terrorists the same way in africa's sudan. 100's of thousands non muslims raped and murdered by muslims while the un does nothing. hypocrites .
12. WE ASSUME THE UN GA ALWAYS TOLD HAMAS TO STOP...
stude ham   (01.16.09)
THAT'S precisely why the UN ga has a worthless bit of blather and can be totally ignored.
13. Name 1 country that recognizes "international law" and...
Nick Sporek ,   Jerusalem Israel   (01.16.09)
... lives by the letter of it.
14. U.N. curses G-d
robert barrett ,   fort smith ark usa   (01.16.09)
How dare the U.N. say its because of them that Israel is a nation today. They breath because of G-d and would drop dead if He wished. When they stand before G-d they will be so ashamed for their actions. You Israel are in the last days and must not let fear enter your hearts and know that your Savoir is soon here. Keep the faith in your living G-d.
15. Nicaragua,Malaysia...crème de la crème of the intl community
Flavio ,   Sao Paulo, Brazil   (01.16.09)
Nicaragua is one of those backward, narrow-minded Latin American states, the type of morons very well described by Carlos Alberto Montaner called, in his highly acclaimed book, 'Guide to the Perfect Latin American Idiot'. Malaysia's best known for the brutality of its dictatorship, rivalled only by the intensity of its deranged anti-Semitism. Nowadays, it is one of the main sponsors of 'Protocols of the Elder of Zion'. And these are the leaders of the anti-Israel motion in the UN! Why am I not surprised at all?
16. Internation law?
Ben ,   Monroe USA   (01.16.09)
Now the UN BS artists are experts in international law. How nice. Would these self same geniuses care to advise us the rules of international law re rocketry into a civilized nation?No. Civilized people have recognized the UN as a fraud perpetrated upon the world. If the opportunity arises for the UN to do something constructive; don't expect it to happen. We see the UN as it is, terrorist haven.
17. Wikipedia article on D'Escrotum: guess who...
Flavio ,   Sao Paulo, Brazil   (01.16.09)
...is among his 15 'senior advisers' at the UN? Richard Falk and Noam Chomsky!!!! Yes, it's there in . I cannot help asking myself: how could he forget to invite the so-called ''rabbi' Michael Lerner, Norman Finkelstein, Avi Shlaim and Ilan Pappé? He would have the best 'senior adviser' team ever, the 'dream team' of every jew hater in the world!
18. This is justice?
Steven ,   Clarmore, USA   (01.16.09)
It's really hard for me to believe that this hypocrisy can be equalled to justice. What about the U.S. and NATO and Kosovo. These people are being bought off by big oil. It would have to be. I can't imagine them coming up with this kind of stupidity and hypocrisy otherwise.
19. All the World is Wrong?
Joseph ,   Los Angeles USA   (01.16.09)
According to comments am reading here all those countries (over 120) are wrong only Israel is right!!!! Killing women and children is pride and all those who object are wrong!!! How dumb do you think people are? You take pride in killing civilians and a few Hamas fighters after 20 days of immense bombardment and think that you are winning the war!!!! Are you people for real here? Murdering women and children with illegal weapons!!! You call this civilized? If you guys are men you will go in to Gaza city and fight like men an honorable fight not throw chemical weapons and massive bombardment then not dare to go in. You know what would happen your asses will be kicked out like in South Lebanon in 2006 no civilians then you wiped out towns then went in, pure fighters waiting for you. Ask your best soldiers what happened. Real men faced them and made them cry all the way out. This is a sign of real frustration on Israel’s side your technology can no longer do the killing and supremacy job for you any longer. Killing civilians and bombarding hospitals, mosques, and the press is due to the frustration by the IDF for not being able to accomplish anything. Israel is on the decline rapidly.
20. UN
colin   (01.16.09)
Typical of the anti Israel UN to discuss the actions of Israel in gaza YET NOTHING OF CONDEMNATION FOR THE REASON OF THE ACTIONS TO SECURE SAFETY FOR THE ISRAELI PEOPLE. The UN is an Islamic controlled organisation for the sole purpose of outlaying Israel
21. #19 hey Joe (Yusuf)
sm ,   Canada   (01.16.09)
Lets assume that the US and UK are not doing what we are. Lets say we go and fight like men, then is it OK to kill 10000? We did not smell you around these parts when the Hamas were sending out rockets? Or is it OK. Why dont you go to Gaza to help your brothers, may be tose virgins may be closer than you think.
22. UN indignation??
John ,   Bridgetown Barbados   (01.16.09)
It seems to me ironic that Israel, a state that more than any other owes its very existence to a (1948) General Assembly resolution, should be so disdainful of United Nations resolutions," D'Escoto noted. The UN has changed significantly since '48! Now, it seems as though the UN is an enemy of Israel. What was the UN doing for the past six years whilst Hamas was firing rockets into Israel?
23. Hamas Lives By The Law Of The Jungle
Not Jewish ,   USA   (01.16.09)
Screw the UN
24. UN annoyance
Ben ,   Monroe USA   (01.16.09)
Wow, such a problem. The UN is annoyed with Israel for defending herself and returning fire on UN establishments manned by hamas fighters. Simple question, why doesn't the UN condemn the hamas for using UN compounds as bases to attack Israli troops? New rules established by the UN; hamas can attack Israel whenever it suits her, Israel has the right to lay down and die because it suits hamas and the UN. This known as international law by the UN. The UN today has been redefined as the UATO = united arab terrorist organization.
25. The UN
mordehcai ,   sydney, Australia   (01.16.09)
What can i say about the UN, it is one waste of Co2 emmissions, prime real estate in Manhatan. Israel has been sencured more in the UNs (painfull) history than any other country. I think it is about time, that Israel realised that it gains nothing to be in the UN., they should get out of it. Let the UN move to Zimbabwe or North Korea, i am sure they will be welcomed with open arms by these countrys.
26. Joesap #19 It's called being dumb as a post . u are
but Living in LA ,   you know u r...   (01.16.09)
27. which word dont they understand??
(01.16.09)
right to defend itself, when the missiles stop so will the israeli attack...how complicated is that to understand???
28. Israel vs. UN
Libyan Guy ,   Italy   (01.16.09)
Israel is spitting i the same plate form which it eats.
29. UN a joke
Lee ,   New Orleans USA   (01.20.09)
UN needs to be more concerned with Irans Nuclear ambitions and their promotion of terrorist acts through the Arab Community. People here in the US think that the UN is about as useless as they come. They are a Joke!
