UN Human Rights Council Goes on the Offensive Against Israel
(Washington Times) Clifford D. May - Vladimir Putin is slaughtering Ukrainian men, women and children. Xi Jinping is committing genocide against the Muslims of East Turkistan. Ali Khamenei is murdering Iranian girls for wearing their hijabs in what he considers a provocative manner. What is the UN doing in response? It's going after Israel. The UN Human Rights Council's Commission of Inquiry is funded - with Americans contributing the lion's share - for the purpose of demonizing and delegitimizing Israel in perpetuity. The COI's latest report urges UN members to prosecute Israeli officials for alleged violations of "international humanitarian law" during the May 2021 war between Israel and Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood faction that holds power in Gaza and is designated a terrorist organization by the U.S., EU, UK, and Canada. What does the report say about the 4,000 rockets Hamas fired at Israelis? Not a word. The writer is founder and president of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD).
