1. That's right, call it a vote.
Brad   (07.10.17)
Because it's not a ruling. A ruling would imply that UNESCO actually has knowledge, wisdom, and the courage to apply them without an agenda. None of those things apply to UNESCO or the UN as a whole.
2. Unesco sites should be boycotted
Jackieboy   (07.10.17)
By all Jews and friends of Jews. Especially where admission is charged. Petition governments to reject or ignore the designation.
3. Not as Unesco implies that it was built by persons unknown
Jackieboy   (07.10.17)
in 1st cent. CE, and became eventually a place of pilgrimage in Palestine for the 3 religions. It was a place of pilgrimage for Jews over 1750 years before that date, before the existence of Islam by 2450 years, before the still and as yet, non-existent Palestine, and long before most Arabs even knew of the existence of Ishmael, or their largely erroneous descent from him. Hebron was the first capital of Israel under King David and was, and still is in Judea. Ignorance will not forever remain bliss.
4. No major building in that area in 40 years we are the blame
shameOnUs ,   Jerusalem Israel   (07.10.17)
What a joke the second most sacred city in Jewish Civilization
and we are afraid to build up the Jewish population in it
there has been NO that is NO major building there in forty years
despite the demand to live there. We cannot blame the Arabs
or the world if they dont see it as our heritage our leaders
inactions do the same .Something seriously wrong with
Jewish leadership all of them
5. Actually it is situated in the State of Narnia.

6. When EVERY Israeli politician uses the term "Palestinians"
(07.10.17)
what the heck do you expect?! Maybe someone will wake up and start discussing the fabled "Palestine"?
7. The stones in the walls will cry against you (voHG)

Habakuk 2:11 The very stones in the walls cry out against you,
and the beams in the ceilings echo the complaint.
8. The state of Israel must explain to the United Nations and t
(07.10.17)
The state of Israel must explain to the United Nations and to all nations that God gave to Israel all the Land of Canaan, which includes all the Palestine, as it is written in the Bible, in Genesis 12:6-7, 15:13-21, 17:1-8, 17:19, 26:1-5, 28:10-14 and 35:9-12 and Numbers 34:13-29 and Deuteronomy 3:8, and that Israel possessed that land since the year 1466 BCE, and that the Arabs invaded the Land of Israel (Palestine) in the year 635 CE, so that all the Palestine belongs to Israel, including the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, and the Arabs are invaders and must go back to their land, that is Arabia.

The state of Israel must immediately declare null the Oslo Accords and annex the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to its territory and dismantle the Palestinian Authority. The Oslo Accords are null, because they are against the Law of God (Written Torah), because it is written in the Torah, in Numbers 33:50-53 and Deuteronomy 1:8 and 30:5, that God commanded Israel to possess all the Land of Canaan, that is the Land of Israel, that includes all the Palestine. And the state of Israel must not give Israeli citizenship to the Arabs, because Israel is a Jewish state, so that only Jews can be citizens of Israel. This is not racism, because any person, of any race or ethnicity, may convert to Judaism.

The state of Israel must immediately expel the Arabs from its territory, because it is written in the Torah, in Exodus 23:31-33 and in Numbers 33:52, that God commanded Israel to expel the other inhabitants of the Land of Canaan, which is the Land of Israel, which includes all the Palestine. The Arabs invaded the Land of Israel in the year 635 CE, so that they are invaders, and must leave Israel, and return to their own land, which is Arabia. This is not racism, because any person, of any race or ethnicity, can convert to Judaism. Moreover, the Palestinian Arabs are killing the Israeli Jews, so that the Israeli Jews need to expel the Palestinian Arabs from the Land of Israel (Palestine), as self defense, in order to save their lives.
9. when you give a finger, don't be surprised.................
tiki ,   belgium   (07.10.17)
when the hand will be cut of by the genetic Jew haters of the world.

UNESCO is just a a name. It's the countries/people who set the agenda's.

Centuries old genetic Jew hate!
Honoring their Religion of Peace.
Appeasing the Religion of Peace out of fear & financial interest.
Brainwashed opinions.
Sucking up to the 1.5 billion Muslims instead of 15 million Jews.

These make up the agenda of the representatives in the UN/UNESCO

The world came away with the Holocaust without to much damage so they can risk doing it again.

It's up to Israel to stop lending their hand to the butchers.

The war against the Jews & Israel is not fought only by the bullet, but by the word & legislation through people in elegant suits from posh offices.

That's what the Nazi's did. They made new legislations against the Jews.....

"Jews are not allowed to do/have/own".....every day a little more.

Learn Israel. Verbal protest is not enough!

10. Ben Alofs, there is no "Palestine"
C   (07.10.17)
there has never been a sovereign named "palestine."

the territory referred to as the west bank is at most disputed.

the united nations cannot create states.
it can only admit existing states.
11. UNESCO vote: 12 member states of the UN out of 193
C   (07.10.17)
it is outrageous that 12 states can be allowed to determine the status of any territory.

the west has allowed itself to be dominated by islam.
the christian west has always sided with islam against
the sovereign jewish state of israel.

12. Problem is Israeli support for evil fictional "Palestine"
Chaim ,   Israel   (07.10.17)
Nobody would even waste their breath talking about the evil fiction of "Palestine" if Israel didn't keep the abomination afloat with endless mad supplies of food, money, materials, protection, work permits etc. The UN is a totally despicable Jew hating, terror loving organization, but it is not the real problem. The real problem is insane Jewish and Israeli support for our mortal "Palestinian" foes.
13. UNESCO = Neo Nazi's.
BBB   (07.10.17)
WW11 victory over the Nazi's didn't kill the anti semitism that the UN or UNESCO still harbors.
14. I don't even listen to George Enesco anymore.
Jackieboy   (07.10.17)
15. Read and Learn
Marjorie S Rosenfeld ,   Plano, TX, USA   (07.11.17)
Palestine was Southern Syria, an area in the Ottoman Turkish Empire before World War I. Palestine was designated for World Jewry in which to reconstitute the historic Jewish homeland. This was done via the 1920 San Remo Resolution and the 1922 Mandate for Palestine. However, Eastern Palestine was given, as Transjordan, to an Arab ruler and is now the sovereign Kingdom of Jordan. Western Palestine, a much smaller area, is sovereign Israeli territory. A good legal explanation of all this is a paper at:

or

Anyone can read the relevant documents and learn what's what. The political machinations of the UN and the so-called Palestinians don't change the facts.
