\u201cFor the day of Hashem is near upon all the nations; as thou hast done it shall be done unto thee; thy dealing shall return upon thine own head.\u201d Obadiah 1:15 (The Israel Bible\u2122)<\/em><\/p>\n

US envoy to the UN Nikki Haley on Friday wrote in a Washington Post op-ed the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) is singling out Israel for relentless condemnations, while truly heinous regimes such as Venezuela and Cuba go scot-free because they are members of the Council.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the council passes more than 70 resolutions against Israel, a country with a strong human rights record, and just seven resolutions against Iran, a country with an abysmal human rights record, you know something is seriously wrong,\u201d the ambassador wrote.<\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, Haley reminded her readers, \u201cIn 2014, Russia invaded Ukraine and took over Crimea. This illegal occupation resulted in thousands of civilian deaths and injuries, as well as arbitrary detentions. No special meeting of the Human Rights Council was called, and the abuses continue to mount.\u201d<\/span>
\nHaley will visit Israel for the first time as UN ambassador next week, presumably to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Six Day War. But on her way over she will stop in Geneva, Switzerland, to address the UNHRC. It\u2019s a crucial visit for the vehemently anti-Israeli world body, because President Trump has threatened to leave. In fact, Haley has stated that she plans to make her recommendations to the President on staying in or quitting the UNHRC based on her discussions in Geneva.<\/span><\/p>\n

Incidentally, Haley\u2019s successor, Obama appointee Samantha Power, was similarly critical of the way the UNHRC treated Israel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Haley detailed her plans for next week\u2019s Geneva visit: \u201cI will outline changes that must be made. Among other things, membership on the council must be determined through competitive voting to keep the worst human rights abusers from obtaining seats.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

She envisions changes in the method of picking new members: \u201cAs it stands, regional blocs nominate candidates that are uncontested. Competition would force a candidate\u2019s human rights record to be considered before votes were cast.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
