A world without the UN
The current session of the UN Human Rights Council concludes today in Geneva. The delegates have achieved another milestone in bashing Israel and turning a blind eye to the genuine human rights outrages among its ranks and elsewshere. Surely the highlight of this session was the "inadmissible" statement made on March 23 by Hillel Neuer of UN Watch to the Council. UN Watch has now compiled a video supplement to put Neuer's "inadmissible" statement in context. UN Watch describes the new video as follows:
This new 3-minute video compilation reveals a small sample of the daily invective and truly offensive statements that are routinely welcomed by the UN Human Rights Council. Insults against ambassadors and mocking of human rights experts; justification of violence against women and gays; glorification of terrorism; Holocaust denial; demonization of Israel—the video shows how all of that and more was allowed by the Council. However, as shown at the end of the video, only one statement was rejected as "inadmissible" and banned from ever being delivered again: UN Watch's lifting of a mirror to the Council and exposing its shortcomings.Highly recommended.
