UN, including Iran, Saudi Arabia and Yemen, singles out Israel as world’s only violator of women’s rights

JUL 26, 2019 1:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER

Ludicrous. Why is this desperately corrupt slave of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation occupying American soil? Why are American taxpayers still funding it?

“UN Singles Out Israel as World’s Only Violator of Women’s Rights; Iran, Saudi Arabia & Yemen Among the Voters,” UN Watch, July 24, 2019:

GENEVA, July 24, 2019 — Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Pakistan were among members of the UN’s 54-nation economic and social council, a principal organ of the world body, who voted to single out and condemn Israel yesterday as the only country in the world that violates women’s rights.

The Jewish state was harshly and repeatedly condemned in a resolution, adopted 40 to 2 with 9 abstentions and 3 absent (see breakdown below), for allegedly being the “major obstacle” for Palestinian women “with regard to their advancement, self-reliance, and integration in the development of their society.”

Out of 20 items on the UN Economic and Social Council’s 2018-2019 agenda, only one — Item No. 16 against Israel — focuses on condemning a specific country. All the other focus areas concern global topics such as disaster relief assistance and the use of science and technology for development.

The resolution completely ignores how Palestinian women’s rights are impacted by their own governing authorities—the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, and Hamas in Gaza—nor does it mention how women are discriminated against within patriarchal Palestinian society.

Moreover, ECOSOC concluded its annual session by ignoring the world’s worst abusers of women’s rights, refusing to pass a single resolution on the situation of women in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, or DR Congo, all of which ranked in the top ten worst countries in last year’s Global Gender Gap Report, produced by the World Economic Forum….

Discussion of the resolutions followed the presentation of a biased report by Tarik Alami, representative of the Beirut-based Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia, the UN regional body for the Middle East that includes 18 Arab states, but not Israel. Alami accused Israel of preventing Syria and the Palestinian Authority from achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

Voting Record: Resolution Condemning Israel for Violating Women’s Rights

YES: Andorra, Angola, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Benin, Cambodia, China, Colombia, Denmark, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Ethiopia, France, Ghana, India, Iran, Ireland, Japan, Kenya, Luxembourg, Mali, Malta, Morocco, Netherlands, Norway, Pakistan, Paraguay, Philippines, South Korea, Russia, St. Vincent, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Yemen.

NO: United States and Canada

ABSTAIN: Brazil, Cameroon, Germany, Jamaica, Mexico, Romania, Togo, Ukraine, and United Kingdom

How the UK has degenerated.

"How the UK has degenerated."

I've come to the conclusion that the average Englishman is scared of Muslim retribution. Don't know about the Scots or Welsh, but are there any MEN left in England as their citizens are attacked almost daily by the huge Muslim immigration?

From the same people who keep moving the deadline for the worlds irreversible demise if we don’t fund the communist green global warming eco policies to the trillions.

Its already way too late, we’re past several self-imposed point of no returns by these ecofreaks.

The UN should be declared an illegal organisation and booted off American soil.
I’d love to see the UN HQin NYC become a shelter for homeless and injured vets.

I think there is a good chance Trump has a plan to do this in the second term - the evidence suggests so !

YES: ...Denmark...Ireland... Japan, ... Luxembourg... Netherlands, Norway. ABSTAIN: Brazil...Germany... Ukraine... and United Kingdom

Some fine fine allies we have on our side. We defend NATO why?? We support Ukraine independence why?

At least the Russians - who, let us not ever forget, colluded with Trump to get us deplorables to steel the election from the Annoited One - understand about Islamic perfidy and violence.

There have to be some standards of decency, of civilization of western values upheld, before we will fight on your side for your values. Surely?
