This blog supports limited government, the right of the State of Israel to live in peace and security, and tries to expose the threat to us all from cultural relativism, post-modernism, and radical Islam.

Does the UN have no shame?

The new UN Human Rights Council once again shows it's anti-Israel bias.
The UN Human Rights Council will hold a special session this week to examine allegations of rights violations by Israel in its battles with Hizbollah militants after a group of mainly Muslim countries called for action.

The meeting, expected to be held on Thursday or Friday in Geneva, is likely to hear denunciations of Israel over the conflict. The group's letter, a copy of which was obtained by Reuters, was presented by Tunisia on behalf of 16 countries, the required one third of the Council's 47 member states needed to call a special session.

Tunisia's ambassador Samir Labidi submitted the request, seeking a special session "to take action on the gross human rights violations by Israel in Lebanon, including the Qana massacre, country-wide targeting of innocent civilians, and destruction of vital civilian infrastructure".
This is all bogus. It's a one-sided attempt to hiject the Human Rights Council and it will succeed.
