1. Now we know,after Jesus,Rachel, Patriarchs are Palestinians!
Alan ,   Canada   (10.21.15)
Since they seem to be born or are buried on the West Bank then they are all Palestinians, even though Palestine & the word Palestinian did not exist in biblical times!
2. UNESCO
David ,   Montreal, Canada   (10.21.15)
UNESCO has as much credibility as Sepp Blatter and FIFA. The UN has as much credibility as the ice dancing judges who used to sell their votes in exchange for cash and benefits. Remember, this is the outfit that failed every group that has suffered under Muslim atrocities. Why ? Because the Saudis and Gulf States buy votes in order to sanction Israel. Does anyone give a damn about what this disgusting cheap excuse of an NGO has to say about Israel ? Nobody that is worth anything.
3. Turn the tables on UNESCO
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (10.21.15)
Quoting: "The resolution adopted "strongly condemns Israeli aggression and illegal measures restricting freedom of worship and access to the holy Muslim site of the al-Aqsa Mosque."". Very well,put it right and allow UNRESTRICTED freedom of worship and access to the Temple Mount for all including Jews and Christians. If that what UNESCO wants,let UNESCO have it. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
4. Annex Judea/Samaria. End "Palestine" circus
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.21.15)
The evil U.N. can't keep fictional "Palestine" alive. Nor can the E.U. Nor can anyone except Israel. By insanely showering fictional "Palestine" with food, money, electricity, work permits etc., Israel is keeping the evil abomination afloat. The time is long overdue to end the "Palestine" circus permanently. Annex Judea and Samaria and end ALL lunatic support of fictional "Palestine".
5. the resolution doesnt say the Kotel DOES NOT belong to musli
zionist forever   (10.21.15)
The resolution didn't actually say the Kotel was not part of the mosque it just didn't get included in the resolution so the arabs can still claim UNESCO backs them just that bit got left out the resolution. What this resolution does do is say that the Western Wall Plaza and the bridge above are part of the mosque and as the plaza is the only approach to the wall they can argue well if the plaza and bridge belongs to the mosque then logically so does the wall itself si its time for the Jews to leave these Muslim holy places.
6. EXPEL UNESCO NOW!!!!!!
Shadoil79 ,   Jerusalem   (10.21.15)
7. Islamic countries are dominant in UN...
Beary White ,   Norway   (10.21.15)
... so whatever is voted for will be in disfavor of Israel. UN = Arab Legua. UN has no integrity left as an unbiased body in the world. It is a charade.
8. SHOVE IT ! ANNEX J&S NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (10.21.15)
9. r the talking about Netanyahu's holocaust rewrite or Temple
Israela ,   Israel   (10.21.15)
Mount when they say: Israel had denounced the "shameful and deceitful attempt to rewrite history"
10. UNESCO has no authority to determine sovereignty
C   (10.21.15)
unesco is a cultural organisation which is part of the un and subject to its treaty provisions. the united nations and its various subsidiary parts do not have the authority to create new states or to determine unilaterally the borders of sovereign states. all resolutions of unesco are political statements with no further meaning. the tomb of the patriarchs and rachel's tomb are exclusively historic jewish sites and will remain under jewish sovereignty.
11. declare them israeli lands. now!!!! annex immediately.
ralph   (10.22.15)
12. Need more proof of the UN & its accomplices being sick?
(10.22.15)
13. #4:"Hold your fire until they're close enough": I think
(10.22.15)
we're getting there. PM is slowly building the momentum and large segments of our Oslobotomized (WOW: I invented a new term!) public are waking up. I takes time. We'll "pounce" when we'll know we are going to succeed.
14. Jerusalem is Jewish
Selim Mizrahi   (10.22.15)
Who cares about Unesco? They are biased and racist. The old testament mentions about Jerusalem hundreds of times and the Kuran zero! The sun can't be blocked with mud. Jerusalem was, is and will remain jewish; end of discussion.
15. TELL THE PALIS NOT TO STORE GUNS IN THE MOSQUE
IRANIAN JEW ,   LA USA   (10.22.15)
This entire charade was fabricated by Abbas in such way.
16. lawsuit against barak
helmut   (10.22.15)
ironic that turks who precipitated the violence on the marmora should file a lawsuit against barak whose offers to the arabs were overly generous and who bent over mightily to lure them into peace. \the marmora was already reviewed legally and foundd to have no basis to hold israel accountable. \in fact, the israelis should sue the turks for injuries and criminial liability. We know erdogan is a 100% liar along with half his countrymen. \\barak should be supported by resources of the state in legal representation in the \us jurisdiction. \hopefully, erdogan will be thrown out of office and end up in jail where he belongs.
17. LITTLE BY LITTLE THE UN IS RIPPING AWAY ISRAEL'S TERRITORY
(10.22.15)
obviously, Israel's existence can never, and never will, depend on paper scraps.
18. #13 King Bibi the Weak will never pounce,
A ,   Belgium   (10.22.15)
only crawl. It will take a stronger leader than him to annex Judea and Samaria and return the "palestinian"/Jordanians to their homeland across the river.
19. to #5
Adler J   (10.22.15)
but if Israel decides to give up east jerusalem to palestinians, logically Israel will not allow them to come in the Western Wall Plaza or to use the bridge and some holy places will not be accesible to arabs from east Jerusalem, actually holding Israeli id and working in the jewish capital of Jerusalem. never in history the Vatican trust muslims controlling their holy sites. Shalom Javerim
20. Can we finally stop pretending?
Brad ,   USA   (10.22.15)
Stop pretending that the UN has any good reason for its existence. It doesn't have one. The UN is there only to antagonize Israel and the West in general. The UN has a huge Muslim voting bloc, but not much Muslim money. The UN is awash in money confiscated from the West, the U.S. In particular. The UN constantly trashes Israel without cause and offends the Biblical God. He will take care of it. He doesn't pretend, so why should we.
21. BOLLOCKS TO UNESCO
