The UN Obsession with Israel!
When the League of Nations (founded in 1920 after WWI) was replaced by the United Nations in 1945, the world was hopeful that the new organization would succeed in averting another world war–a feat that the League of Nations clearly failed at. The UN prides itself in promoting international cooperation and world peace. It even won the Nobel peace prize in 2001 (but so did Yasir Arafat in 1994.) The UN current Secretary is Ban Ki-moon (since 2007.) In the first article of the UN charter, we can read their purpose for existing:
1. To maintain international peace and security, to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
2. To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;
3. To achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character, and in promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion; and
4. To be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations in the attainment of these common ends.
There is no doubt in my mind that the original crafting of the UN charter took a lot of careful efforts from its founding members to assure that the world organization would be equipped to function properly. As a result, we have seen many decisions made by the UN that definitely helped make the world a better place. One of these decisions was the 1947 vote for the partitioning of British Mandate Palestine, that led to May 14, 1948 and the re-birth of Israel as a modern nation (33 for, 10 against, 10 abstentions.)
But 1948 is nearly 70 years ago and since then, the United Nations have been less than friendly to Israel. As a matter of fact, for many years, there have been more resolutions passed against the Jewish state than the rest of the world combined (and here). For instance, in 2015, the UN adopted 23 resolutions, three against Iran, Syria and Korea and twenty against Israel. There are no indication that it will slow down in 2016. It is also very hard to forget the 16 years that it took the United Nations to revoke their 1975 resolution claiming that "Zionism is Racism." And even if they did revoke it, the organizing of the Durban I (2001), II (2009) and III (2011) conferences against racism have shown that the target was once again almost exclusively Israel.
The United Nations' obsession with demonizing Israel is obvious to any unbiased observer. Just days ago, the unbelievable claim was made by the UN that Israel was the number one country violating women's human rights. The UN ignored Hamas, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, ISIS, Syria to name just a few of the countries were animals are treated better than women. Yet it found Israel guilty of human rights violation against Palestinian women. Is it me or whatever comes out of the UN is officially believed as fact by a world population that certainly doesn't care to check for accuracy as much as it cares for stigmatizing and ostracizing Israel?
To add insult to injury, the UN decides to praise and promote violence, lies and murders. How do you explain the UN funded tree planting by Palestinians to honor the memory of terrorists? How sick is it to promote death and make murderers into martyrs while accusing the victims of human rights violation?
This makes it very difficult for anyone who is seeking truth and fairness to not accuse the UN of antisemitism. It is a fact that a large number of UN members are Arab/Muslim nations who are against Israel and are weighing in at every chance they have to vote against the only Middle East democracy. In the meantime, Israel treats Palestinians in their hospitals, gives jobs to Palestinians and even has two Arab parties as a part of the Knesset. This is looking more and more like there is nothing Israel can do to be in good standing with the world in general and the United Nations in particular.
Even if all Jews would die today and Israel as a whole would become Palestine, antisemitism would continue to exist in the hearts of men. You read me right, no Israel and no Jews do not guarantee no antisemitism, it only guarantees no Israel and no Jews, something that God will never allow (Jeremiah 31:35-37). But if the UN could continue trying to play god...well, that's a different story! Those nations are united indeed, but they are united against Israel and as a result, against God (Psalm 83:5.)
This recent resolution regarding women's' rights is insane! In most of the Arab world, women can't hold jobs, drive, go out alone or even have a voice in how they are treated. It is an absolute bias against Israel. If they continue to go against God like this, I pray their days are numbered. The UN would be a great place for job training & a homeless shelter for the people of NY & the US. Veterans could use a place, too. Kick the UN out. They have become wholly useless!
UN is controlled by the Jesuits. Just like the Vatican and the EU & the USG. Our capital is in MARYland and was originally named Rome & owned by Jesuits. Ruled by the District of Columbia who's statue is on top of dome. (Dome & obelisk same as Vatican) Columbia is Ishtar-Ashtarte-Ashtoreth-Madonna-Queen of Heaven. EU motif is Tower of Babel. All Jesuit!
Islam & communism & Freemasonry all tools of Satan but #1 is Rome. Why criticize the club beating you but not the one swinging it? Islam could be smashed tomorrow if Rome wanted to!
Right on, Logan. You have a pretty good understanding of what goes on behind the curtain.
I am a huge supporter of Israel - I love Israel !!
God's Word gives me much hope and confidence.
There is a scripture in the Bible that says that God will destroy all the nations that have come against Israel. No worry, the UN will be part of it.
In the interim, pray that God pours out His Spirit on all flesh, on the Jew first and also on the nations that they may see the awesome plan of salvation God has for mankind through His son's sacrifice - the shedding of His blood for our sins.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Be strong and of good courage. Do NOT fear.
You're claiming anti-semitic because the UN believes Israel is in violation of agreements that they personally agreed to honor and accepted the UN as the body to review? Maybe Israel is truly guilty of the crimes? I mean, over 500,000 Arabs dead since the beginning of Zionism and over 600,000 Christians dead, missing, or expelled as well, and not one case of a violation, huh?? Mathematical probability that Israel has done nothing wrong is zero and Biblically speaking, every Bible book says when Israel went to war, Israel has sinned. If you want us to believe Israel has never sinned or committed a violation, then I got a London Bridge to sell you.
You have received a YouTube video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o83AW_espMiz,
The response to your bizarre, lies, hypocrisies and vile innuendo is I recommend you watch this video, and you would be ashamed of what you said are lies. Please, watch the video, even if it is unbearable truth, which the antisemites will find painful to seat through and hear the truth right before them, and stop the vilification of the only true democracy in the centre of Islamic Antichrist nations, and that includes the United Nazi or UN. For all the Nazi henchmen are members, which Rome helped to south America. Remember the former UN Secretary General, Kurt Waldheim was a Nazi concentration camp soldiers. No wonder why UN is biased towards the Jewish State.
“One of these decisions was the 1947 vote for the partitioning of British Mandate Palestine, that led to May 14, 1948 and the re-birth of Israel as a modern nation (33 for, 10 against, 10 abstentions.)”
The legal bedrock upon which Israel was established is NOT anything the UN ever said or done. The UN is not a legislative body and has no legal authority to either establish nations nor remove them.
Israel's roots in International Law start in the San Remo Resolution 1920 and NOT in the UN General Assembly Resolution of Nov. 1947. The Resolution was only a recommendation which the UN hoped would end the Arab violence and rioting in Palestine and bring peace to the area. But for the Resolution to become a legal document, it required the signatures of both Arabs and Jews.
But although the Jews accepted the terms of the Resolution and under it, would have given away over half the territory given them under the Mandate for Palestine 1922, the Arabs rejected the 1947 UN Resolution outright and started a war of annihilation the following May, when Israel declared its independence.
The only reason Israel now stands divided is because Jordan captured Judea & Samaria in their 1948 war of aggression but when Israel recovered its territory 1967, the area suddenly became know as “Palestinian occupied territory”!
Why it got that name is a complete mystery to me, as never in the history of the world has there been a “Palestinian Race”, until they were suddenly invented in 1964 by the Arab League – 3 years prior to 2nd Arab war of aggression against Israel!
