Israel Condemns UN "Blacklist" of Israeli Firms Operating in West Bank
(Ha'aretz) Barak Ravid - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu slammed the UN Human Rights Council on Thursday after it voted to draw up a list of all Israeli and international firms operating directly or indirectly in the West Bank, east Jerusalem and the Golan Heights. "The UN Human Rights Council has become an anti-Israeli circus, attacking the only democracy in the Middle East and ignoring the gross violations in Iran, Syria and North Korea. The absurdity is that instead of dealing with Palestinian terror attacks or ISIS terror attacks in Europe, they decide to condemn Israel. Israel calls on responsible governments not to honor the decisions of the Council that discriminate against Israel."
