U.N. "Human Rights" Council Spews Another Modern-Day Blood Libel

"The United Nations Human Rights Council, the body that sanctioned and peddled the now infamous and thoroughly discredited Goldstone Report (later repudiated by its principle author, Richard Goldstone) is at it again. Late last week, the UNHRC, whose membership includes democracy stalwarts like Cuba, Venezuela, Pakistan and China, released a commission of inquiry (COI)report accusing Israel of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity by deliberately targeting 'journalists, health workers, children and persons with disabilities, knowing they were clearly recognizable as such.'

The 22-page report purportedly examined the deaths of 189 Gazans allegedly at the hands of the Israel Defense Forces since March 30, 2018. That date coincides with the beginning of the Hamas–orchestrated and choreographed Palestinian riots along the Gaza border, dubbed by the terror group, 'the Great March of Return.'

Israel did not cooperate with the UNHRC's investigators and for good reason. The UNHRC is an irredeemably flawed organization whose well-documented bias has made it the poster child for antisemitism on the world stage. The body is obsessed with vilifying Israel to the exclusion of all other nations and maintains the infamous Agenda Item 7, which mandates debate on Israeli actions against Palestinians at every council session. No other nation on the planet, including those with abysmal human rights records, is subjected to such outrageous treatment...

The UNHRC's report reeks of bias and mendacity and represents nothing less than a modern-day blood libel. It is shocking that seventy-four years after the Holocaust, Jews are vilified by a body that purports to represent the world but that in reality represents nothing but a present-day reincarnate of age-old antisemitism steeped in hate and conspiracy."
