A new report by a United Nations expert, and submitted to the U.N. Human Rights Council, blames Israel in part for Palestinian men beating their wives — offering more fuel to those in the Trump administration seeking to leave the council over its anti-Israel bias.
The document, first reported by U.N. Watch, which monitors the international body, was written by Dubravka Šimonović — the Special Rapporteur on violence against women — who filed dual reports based on her trips to the region in 2016. The report in question focuses on the “causes and consequences” of violence against women in the region.
In her filing on Israel, Šimonović highlights what she claims is a “clear linkage” between the “Israeli occupation” and Palestinian domestic abuse:
“While recognizing the imperatives related to security and stability in the region, the Rapporteur highlights the clear linkage between the prolonged occupation and [violence against women], and she notes, like her predecessor, that the occupation does not exonerate the State of Palestine from its due human rights obligation to prevent, investigate, punish and provide remedies for acts of gender-based violence (GBV) in the areas and for persons under its jurisdiction or effective control.
The report states:
"Several testimonies the Rapporteur collected highlighted that the economic situation, the level of unemployment and the pressure of the occupation have a greater impact on women’s and children’s lives, making them more vulnerable to domestic violence, in particular in Gaza, due to the constant pressure felt by the blockade and the recurring cycles of conflict, and the overcrowding that limits their mobility and privacy.

ROTFL! The UN has got to go. It’s a waste of taxpayer dollars.
Don’t look at me in that tone of voice.
Until modern feminism the and cultural Marxism the Muslims had no need to blame other for how they treated women. Now they can blame others and the feminists and Marxists will defend them from “Islamophobes”.
Wife beating by proxy. “They made me do it!”
“.... and I like it.”
C’mon, guys, this is a tough sell.
...and they rape European women because they
can’t find enough bubblegum...

Exactly.
<< offering more fuel to those in the Trump administration seeking to leave the council >>
We should leave the UN entirely, not just the so-called human rights council. Been waiting way too long.
So why do Palestinian men do it here? And teach their sons to attack girls they don’t like in their class?
This is so outrageous even Democrats disagree. Democrats know all the blame should be on Trump /sarc
Beady eyed bints!
Aren’t the imaginary ‘palestinians’ mohameddans?????
Really? And who do they blame for this in all the other countries we find the muzzies beating their wives?
Just like there’s a “clear linkage” between global warming and the rise of ISIS.
Dear President Trump: Haven’t we had about enough of this nonsense?
It would severely cut into prostitution and narcotics business in Manhattan.
That the big gatherings are full of prostitutes and drugs is the worst kept secret in Manhattan.
yeah, right... 
The UN (United Nations) has morphed into UM (United Muslims).
How unmanly of these Muslims.
