Quiet: UN at work

The New York Sun’s Jacob Gershman has an excellent story on the one job the United Nations can be trusted to perform reliably: “United Nations bankrolled latest anti-Israel propaganda.” The work of the United Nations in bankrolling anti-Israel propaganda is closely related to standing Agenda Item 8 of the United Nations Human Rights Commission in Geneva under which the commission addresses the “question of the violation of human rights in the occupied Arab territories, including Palestine,” and the work of the commission’s Special Rapporteur of the Commission on Human Rights on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967.
As Anne Bayefsky observed in her NRO column “Undiplomatic unbalance” this past December:

For the past four decades the United Nations has become the personal propaganda machine of the nom de guerre of Arab and Islamic states
