Understanding "UN Bias" Against Israel

Picture from CiF Watch

The UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) has made the democratic State of Israel the target of incessant condemnation while neglecting its mandate to challenge the oppressive regimes around the world.

The film clip below uncovers the factors behind the United Nations unreasonable bias against Israel. 

If you support the UN, you should be aware of all of the facts. Please take note of the following:

* 20% of Israeli citizens are Arabs who enjoy full equality in all areas of life.

* Arab Israelis have more money, education, rights and freedom than Arabs living in any other  country in the Middle East.

* Arab Israeli women were the first Arab Women to receive the right to vote.

* The only country in the Middle-East where gays are not persecuted or killed is Israel

* Arab Israelis enjoy a higher GDP than their neighbors in Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and all other Muslim nations, with the exception of the oil kingdoms.

* It is estimated that 30% of UNCHR’s (the UNHRC’s predecessor) country-specific resolutions were against Israel.

* In 2006-2007, the UN passed 22 resolutions against Israel, but neglected to form a single resolution regarding the ongoing Darfur genocide in Sudan.

* More than 17,000 deadly terrorist attacks have been committed by Muslim extremists since 9/11. How many has Israel committed? Zero.

* Over a thousand civilians have been killed in recent political uprisings and demonstrations in Libya, Egypt and Syria. How many were killed during Israel's protests? Zero.

* It is estimated that over 70% of the state specific condemnations made by the UNHRC over the last 30 years, have been against Israel.

* Mahmaud Achmedinijad, Key note speaker at the past Durban conventions, represents a country which tortures and murders its civilians, arrests those who speak against the government, and forbids the international media from entering the country.

* Former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan recognized, in 2005, that the Commission’s (HRC) “credibility deficit” was “cast[ing] a shadow on the reputation of the United Nations system as a whole.”

* The HRC’s resolutions against Israel equal the combined total of country-specific resolutions adopted against all other countries in the world.

* The HRC Bars Israel from participating in a regional group, and from membership in the commission, making her the only country who cannot participate in the commission.

On 21 September 2011, there was a pro-Israel demonstration to hold the UNHRC accountable for its actions as the UN launched its Durban III Anti-Racism Review Conference. The event took place in Dag Hammershald Plaza, NYC. For further information go to the link below:
