Nikki Haley Blasts UN Council for Condemning Israel's Record on Women's Rights
(Algemeiner) Benjamin Kerstein - Former U.S. Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley blasted the UN Economic and Social Council on Thursday for singling out Israel for alleged violations of women's rights in a 40-2 vote with 9 abstentions. Among the countries voting yes were some that are notorious for denying basic rights to women. "It is a total mockery of human rights to allow Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, and Yemen to name Israel as the world's only violator of women's rights," Haley tweeted.
