"Legislation seeking to shut down U.N.’s Commission of Inquiry on Israel gains momentum." One can tell the outcome of this report by the title they gave to the commission, (Occupied Palestinian Territory).
Greg Steube: The COI Elimination Act was introduced by Rep. Greg Steube (R-FL) since 2019 in late March. It would designate that it is U.S. policy to “seek the abolition” of the COI and “combat systemic anti-Israel bias at the United Nations Human Rights Council and other international fora.”
The ongoing anti-Israel commission formed by the U.N’s discredited Human Rights Council directly obstructs peace in the Middle East and intentionally targets the only democracy in the region,” Steube said in a statement when he first introduced the legislation. “Our U.S. tax dollars have no place funding an anti-Israel commission.”
Navanethem (Navi) Pillay, PhD. Chairman: UN high commissioner; a South African jurist who served as the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights from 2008 to 2014. Ms. Pillay received a BA and a LLB from Natal University South Africa. She also holds a Master of Law and a Doctorate of Juridical Science from Harvard University. She was born in 1941, and has two daughters.
Miloon Kothari, below, is highly prejudice against Israel already, but Navanethem defended Kothari’s statements and said that the remarks had been taken out of context and that accusations of antisemitism had been plaguing the commission from its founding. She also said that “Jews are throwing around accusations of antisemitism like rice at a wedding.” Hey, lady, we call it as we see it, which is too much if you ask us, too!
After hearing Navi Pillay’s comments, Israel’s Ambassador to the UN in Geneva, Meirav Eilon Shahar, wrote a letter to the UNHRC’s President, Federico Villegas. She said, “This issue comes down to one simple question, is the term ‘the Jewish Lobby’ antisemitic? Even in the context Ms. Pillay claims, that Mr. Kothari was discussing governments and NGOs’ attempts to discredit them, both Mr. Kothari and now Ms. Pillay seem to place the blame for this on an imaginary ‘Jewish lobby,” an age-old antisemitic trope, ” such as saying, "The Jewish Lobby controls all the banks."
At the UNHRC in Geneva just last week on June 7th, the probe’s chairwoman Navi Pillay presented the 18-page report against Israel to the council, saying, “The occupation must end.”
Miloon Kothari currently serves as a member of the UN Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel. He's already biased against Israel.
He's from India. His occupation is that he's a policymaker, His
education is attending Maharaja Sayajirao University, BA from
Columbia U, and Pratt Institute
having served on the UN Special Rapporteur on Housing from
2000-2008. He and another Rapporteur, Michael Lynk, sugg-ested that Israel practices the high crime of apartheid. Kothari says “I would go as far as to raise the question of why [Israel is] even a member of the United Nations. Because… the Israeli government does not respect its own obligations as a UN member state.
Federico Villegas, (born 24 March 1966) an Argentine career diplomat, currently serving as president of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) during the year 2022.Villegas previously served as Permanent Representative of Argentina to the United Nations Office at Geneva from 2020, and as ambassador of Argentina to Mozambique from 2016 to 2020.
In May of 2021, after the 11 day conflict between Israel and the Hamas terrorists in Gaza, the United Nations formed a “Commision of Inquiry” to be solely focused on Israel and to root out “systematic discrimination and repression.”The commission’s first report came out last month and its content exposed its three members for what they really are: Jew haters. A summary of the report posted on United Nations website says:
“The continued "occupation" by Israel of Palestinian territory and discrimination against Palestinians are the key root causes of the recurrent tensions, instability and protraction of conflict in the region.”
I'd say it's because of the 1967 Kartoum Conference and the 3 NO's,no recognition of Israel, no negotiations with Israel and no peace with Israel, all the attacks by Palestinians caused by not wanting to live in peace.
The 1967 Arab League summit was held on August 29 in Khartoum as the fourth Arab League Summit in the aftermath of the Arab defeat by Israel in the Six-Day War, and is famous for its Khartoum Resolution known as "The Three No's"; No peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, no negotiations with Israel. The summit also resolved that the "oil-rich Arab states" give financial aid to the states who lost the war and to "help them rebuild their military forces." The final communique of the meeting "underscored the Palestinians' right to regain the whole of Palestine—that is, to destroy the State of Israel." The outcome of this summit has been influencing Israeli foreign policy for the past decades and continues. Leaders of eight Arab states gathered in Khartoum on Aug. 29 to make plans for recapturing the lost territory and defining their relationship with Israel.
