There is no way I will ever believe in an Arab UN who are bent on Israel's destruction. Today's the UN is the same where all the Arab countries have refused to recognize the re-creation of the Jewish state. Then and today, the UN has been tolerant with them and never penalized them for misconduct and breaking UN laws. The Arab countries do as they please. And they please to kill, to hang innocent people, to stone women, to behead culprits in broad daylight in Saudi Arabia, to torture anyone opposed to their criminal regimes, to control women till death and so on and so forth. All these are condoned by the UN. Why? Ask the UN ! I, for certain, do not believe in this irrelevant, immoral, useless and money gobbling institution. For the Israelis, UN is also a threat considering its very dangerous, daily bashing, anti Israeli record.

Exactly. Very well said. Kudos to you Ilan.

It's only a Reuters article....nothing to read here folks. Move along, move along....

If the UN were any good, they wouldnt pull soldiers out of Syria, where #9 the real slaughter and aparthied is happening. I think the UN hasnt the respect it had when first started, because they make it so obvious on who they defend and what they defend. Maybe they like the wars to keep inbusiness, maybe get a cut from arms dealers...who knows what goes on behind closed doors!

every time bombs come raining down in Israel and kids have to run for shelters. I personally know of one child that was killed in suicide bombing (held her in my arms). So, UN - maybe you'll stop being so biased and see both sides.

Dont believe anything that comes from the UN.....it is an organisation strongly infiltrated by pro-palestianian people. We have seen proof of this before.....the wont stop trying to demonize Israel

UN standards

When will this committee for the rights of children examine the consequences of Arab terror upon Israeli children? Looks like they have rolled this one out to draw attention away from their inaction in Syria

Thank you. That was very well said. That was a wonderful post.

How could killings in Syria give Israel the right to mistreat children??

As a matter of fact, the UN reports on ALL violations committed by ALL countries. Israel is no exception.

So do Defence for Children International and the UK Foreign Office.

but consists of largely unsupported claims and political complaints about, for example, the 'wall'. The development of "Pallywood" demonstrates that it's not always possible to take such claims at face value. By the way, the report has no concerns about the right to life of Israeli children traveling in cars subjected to rock-throwing by these same Palestinian Arab teenagers.

My comment (#46) got slightly mangled, so I'll reprint it here in full; Actually, Avri, if you read the report, you will see that much of it is not 'facts' at all but consists of largely unsupported claims and political complaints about, for example, the 'wall'. The development of "Pallywood" demonstrates that it's not always possible to take such claims at face value. By the way, the report has no concerns about the right to life of Israeli children traveling in cars subjected to rock-throwing by these same Palestinian Arab teenagers.

your own people, eg gaza hamas hizbolla, syria iran, you name it and you spoke true of it. So first clean up your own house before you try your BS about others.

Firstly, the source of these claims is not entirely reliable. Secondly, if things do occasionally go wrong, Israel has the legal and democratic means to deal with them, just as in any democracy. Actually, the reason so many people react against reports such as this one is the obsessive nature of the criticism against Israel and the fact that so many anti-Israeli activists use reports like this to question the very existence of Israel in a way that they would never do with other countries.

The UN does not in fact report "on ALL violations committed by ALL countries." This report is by a UNHRC-related body. The UNHRC has a record of singling out Israel. I suggest you research this - UN Watch has all the information.

Israel is also involved in publicly chopping of young muslim thief's limbs and muslim girls circumcision... all executors from Riyadh and Tehran are Jews trained by IDF. They use the innocent kids blood for matzos after torture....

Did the IDF captain who emptied his revolver's magazine into the head of a 12 year old Palestinian schoolgirl because she got too close to your apartheid wall get punished? No he did not. More, he was congratulated. Israel is a failed experiment that should be moved holus bolus far from humanity.

Why is it that whenever Israel is (rightly) accused of human rights abuses, particularly against children, that Israelis start hissing and screaming about what is happening in Syria? Is it in your jewish mantra to deflect every criticism against Israel, even if it is true? You can't handle the truth? TH UN is well aware of what is happening in Syria, and there are many other web sites where you can vent your spleens about it!

Only one child? Hundreds of Palestinian children have been killed by you and thousands injured. Shame on you!

Thank you for making my point. You don't need me to verify your facts. V Your prejudices are loud and clear!

The reason this report by a UNHRC-related body is rightly criticized is because it is largely based on unsupported claims which, given the nature of "Pallywood" cannot be taken at face value and because UN bodies, particularly the UNHRC, have a proven track-record of obsessively singling out Israel for criticism. I have read the report thoroughly and many of the claims are distorted half-truths or simply nonsense but, unfortunately, they are lapped up by anti-Israel activists. By the way, your comments regarding Israel, the world's only Jewish state, being in your opinion a "failed experiment" is I suspect something you would not say about any other country no matter what they did. I wonder about your true motivation.

Please provide credible statistics from reputable sources. While you are at it, look up the acts of terror perpetrated against Jews -- both in the State of Israel and in the Diaspora -- that have been ongoing for over seven decades. You are woefully ignorant. This probably isn't a good news forum for you -- too many people know the facts, and we will chew you up and spit you out. Try Al Jazeera. They'll probably worship you. They love Jew-hating morons such as yourself.

No Israeli has ever machine-gunned children to death -- look up Ma'alot. No Israeli has ever slit the throats of a sleeping family of five -- look up the Fogel family. No Israeli has ever strapped on a suicide vest and deliberately killed and maimed THOUSANDS of innocent people. Do a little research -- that way you won't make such a complete and utter fool of yourself.

# 24 does not make any sense to you you because you dont have the vaguest idea about the situation here in the ME. I suggest you start to read & learn about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict first, before you sprout rubbish.
