While Palestinians are busy stabbing Israelis to death - and billions are abused, starving, and denied the fundamentals of life around the world - the UN's World Health Organization adopted only one resolution critical of a single state for violating the right to health. Israel, for allegedly violating the health rights of Palestinians. The resolution was passed by a vote of 104 to 8 ( Australia; Canada; Guatemala; Israel; Micronesia (Federated States of); Papua New Guinea; Paraguay; United States of America) , with 8 abstentions (Armenia; Cameroon; Colombia; Democratic Republic of the Congo; Fiji; Ghana; Honduras; New Zealand.)

Israel's treatment of victims of the Assad regime in the Golan, advances in medical technology saving lives across the planet, and its humanitarian aid missions all over the world, were not mentioned.
