Israel: UNESCO Is the -Titanic of International Organizations-
(UNESCO) Amb. Carmel Shama-Hacohen - Israel's ambassador to UNESCO Carmel Shama-Hacohen told the agency's 39th General Conference in Paris on Friday: I would like to thank U.S. President Trump and our American allies for their courageous and just decision to leave UNESCO and for their continuous support of Israel. UNESCO is the Titanic of international organizations, which was hijacked and led by the Arab Group into crashing into the iceberg of politicization, and which has been sinking ever since. Sadly, UNESCO has been hijacked and abused as a tool for the persecution of Israel and the Jewish people, while concocting fake facts and fake history, meant to erase our history in Jerusalem and re-write global history. Undeniably, the lowest points were the attempts to erase the connection between the Jewish people to the Temple Mount and the Western Wall, our holiest of places, and continued with the resolutions against our sovereignty in Jerusalem and the declaration of the Tomb of the Patriarchs as a Palestinian heritage site. Our historic right and connection to Jerusalem and the holy places are thousands of years old and need no affirmation from UNESCO. In the Bible, Jerusalem is mentioned 667 times. There's no mention of Jerusalem in the Quran. What more do you need? No matter how many resolutions are passed here, and even if you do it around the clock, and no matter how much effort Tehran will put into their hallucinations of our disappearance: the truth shall stand strong and Israel is here to stay.
