UN to open permanent probe on Israel
Jerusalem Post ^ | March 13 2007 | TOVAH LAZAROFF

The United Nation's Human Rights Council is expected to place Israel under permanent investigation for its "violations" of international law in the territories - until such time as it withdraws to the pre-1967 border - according to Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch.

It's one of at least four anti-Israel actions he expects the council to take during its fourth session, which started in Geneva on Monday and runs through April 5, Neuer told The Jerusalem Post from Geneva.

The UN is a joke. America and Israel should withdraw. Knock the building down and develop some condos on their site in NYC.

This is absurd, the UN never helped Israel to defend itself, now they wish to sit in judgment of what Israel does to protect themselves against fanatics?

This collection of tin pot dictators is as corrupt as it is laughable. Individual treaties outside of the UN is the way of future.

But since its inception, the 47-member body - which includes Cuba, Saudi Arabia and China - has continued to single out the Jewish State.

Well, that group should know about violating human rights.

The UN body [the Human Rights Council] was created in June to replace the Human Rights Commission, which was scrapped because it had a faulty membership composition and repeatedly singled out Israel.

It is time to scrap this one too.

Israel should attack the UN Building in New York first, then the Iranian nuclear plant second.

They promise to continue their daily prank phone calls to Israel until Israel agrees to their terms...

The UN is the most corrupt, evil organization of criminals in the world. Well, maybe they're second to our own government!! I had hoped for more when the new UN head took over, but I guess not.

Israel should tell the UN to kiss off using sign language. IF you know what I mean. LOL!

Am I, as an American taxpayer, still paying for this carnival? The UN is useless and I believe the only thing that keeps us in it is the democrat party who seem to just love it. And you know they are wrong when they object to John Bolton.

No! Salt the earth so nothing ever grows there again. That's tainted ground!

The UN is on the site of the old Knickerbocker brewery. So, at one time the land was a place of productivity and mirth.

Evil is on the march, all my representatives talk about is global warming and all they do is give away the treasury (and take a hefty chunk for themselves along the way).

I'm increasingly sick about this inexorable move towards chaos via the defeat of rational thought (the 'age of reason' is over).

Yeah, Right. Just after Israel was attacked by Hezbollah and the Palestinians, the U.N. goes after the attacked. Hezbollah will probably attack within the next couple of years now that they have rearmed at the border.

May God protect Israel and scatter all her enemies.

Can anyone tell me why we continue the UN charade? The UN never was good for anything. Corrupt and feckless in New York...

Don't for one minute think that the UN is not effective. The town or city you live in is following Agenda 21 to the letter. That is 99% certain.

Call your City Mangaer and ask him/her what they have done recently that steps outside of the Agenda 21 Program. It will be a very short conversation.
