UN to Mourn 60 Years of Israel's Existence
Summary ... To commemorate its annual International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian [sic] People, the United Nations displayed a film depicting Jews as Nazi-equivalents and a public exhibit mourning the sixty years of Israel's existence. In addition to the obvious hatred on the UN's part, it's pretty incredible when you consider that there has never been a people known as the "Palestinians".
This Monday, November 24th, the United Nations will commemorate its annual International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People with a film depicting Jews as Nazi-equivalents and a public exhibit mourning the sixty years of Israel's existence.
"The event is an annual reminder that the UN's real agenda is to delegitimize the birth — and the perseverance — of the state of Israel," said Anne Bayefsky, Editor of EYEontheUN.org.
Monday's observance marks November 29, 1947 — the day that the UN voted to establish a Jewish and an Arab state in Palestine — a decision accepted by the Jews and rejected by the Arabs. This year's observance is being held a week early due to scheduling conflicts.
As in years past, there will be a formal meeting Monday morning of the Committee on the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People, a film, an afternoon meeting of the General Assembly on the "Question of Palestine," and the opening of a public exhibit in the entrance to the UN's New York headquarters.
Former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan referred to November 29th as "a day of mourning and a day of grief," and the usual procedure is for UN member state after UN member state to use the opportunity to grieve for the suffering of the Palestinian people at Israeli hands.
The General Assembly is scheduled to adopt another four resolutions condemning only Israel for violations of human rights. The total number of resolutions criticizing Israel expected to be adopted at this fall's General Assembly is 20 or more, as compared to only five resolutions critical of human rights records in any of the remaining 191 UN member nations.
The 2008 installment of what is in essence a repeat of the "Zionism = Racism" allegation, will be the public showing of the film La Terre Parle Arabe or The Land Speaks Arabic. The film draws parallels between the Nazis' final solution and the alleged Zionist design for Palestinians. It is commonly billed with these words: "... the late-19th century Zionists ... drew up plans, put them into practice, then ... used ... force, often brutal."
Here is some of the script for the UN public's edification:
"Christians and Muslims alike ... unite in their hatred of Zionism ... I preferred to die as a martyr rather than be governed by the Jews ... We were against the Jews ... The number of Jews increased constantly ... The children cried ... The Hagana had no mercy, no pity. Zionists! They were Zionists! ... The Jews were shooting at us, they were facing us ... The Jews yelled "turn around you bastards, you dogs." They machine gunned us ... They started killing people who were asleep ... [We] ... found a poor woman ... pregnant. They had killed her and the baby came out of the womb. They started slaughtering them until morning."
The exhibit to be opened at 6 p.m. on Monday in the UN lobby — the public entrance through which school children from across the United States and tourists from around the world pass every day — is entitled "The Palestinians: 60 years of struggle and enduring hope." Bayefsky comments: "The "sixty years" of struggle is telling. It puts a lie to the alleged root cause of the Arab-Israeli conflict as an "occupation" that began with the 1967 war. The real complaint is the alleged wrong of the creation of the State of Israel itself." She adds: "The carefully selected word "struggle" also speaks volumes. What the UN glorifies as a struggle is a series of wars launched by Arabs to annihilate the state of Israel beginning in 1948, and the ongoing "struggle" of Palestinian and other Arab terrorists dedicated to the same end."
Past UN Palestinian Solidarity Day observances have included:
- The display of a map in Arabic with the State of Israel missing altogether;
- Flying only the flags of "Palestine" and the United Nations, and omitting the flag of the UN member state of Israel;
- Opening the day with a moment of silence commemorating the death, among others, of suicide bombers or "all those who have given their lives for the cause of the Palestinian people ...";
- Exhibits promoting terrorism and the alleged right of return while criticizing a host of non-violent efforts by Israel to prevent terrorism from checkpoints to a security fence — all of which are invariably presented as evil steps taken in a vacuum.
"Anyone hoping to see an Israeli flag flown in addition to a Palestinian one in celebration of the UN partition plan that approved a two-state solution, should not hold their breath," said Anne Bayefsky. She continued, "the UN tradition of mourning the creation of the state of Israel continues."

Incredible!! and what are democratic countries doing about it? The US which is the host country for the UN headquaters sits on its haunches silent? How can they let this hatred incitement and anti-semetic continue on US soil? The UNO is the most useless organization ever to be put together by the world. It has never achieved peace in any country that needs them protected from terrorists, military dictators, racial pogroms, etc. They send UN troops who just sit on their bums with their unused guns watching the genocides, and killings going on right in front of them. The UN elect leaders of the same ilk, antisemites, women haters, like kofi Annan who take their huge wages and go home without a care sometimes you wonder how they sleep at night. The UN should be flushed down the toilet.
The UN is an organization that should be dismantled and blotted out of history as the most useless organization ever created. It has done nothing to stop wars or bring peace. It is an organization where 3rd world degenerates get to lie and hate everyone and to steal dollars from the free world to promote their terrorism. A broken toilet bowl is more useful than the UN.

Is the Peace Treaty Between Israel and Egypt Finished?
The deterioration in relations between Israel and Egypt should serve as a reminder to all that the new generation in the Arab world is not marching toward moderation, particularly when it comes to making peace with Israel or even recognizing its right to exist.
How Moral Equivalence Erodes Accurate Reporting
When the media fails to make a distinction between Hamas's aggression and Israel's defense, it leaves out the essential element of the story that allows people to make sense of what's happening. What's left out of the coverage is the element of intentionality. More specifically, it glosses over the reality that Hamas's intention was to kill Israeli school children and Israel's intention, in firing back, was to defend its citizens.
UN General Assembly "Uniting for Palestine"
The PA/PLO, according to several reports, will attempt to obtain statehood through use of what is known in the UN as a "Uniting for Peace" resolution. They have several options under this resolution. However, it is important to remember that the UN General Assembly can only adopt non-binding recommendations. The Assembly cannot determine boundaries nor can it confer statehood. A boundary between Israel and a future Palestinian state can only be determined by agreement between the two parties.

Bin Laden Lessons for Israel
The US assassinated bin Laden, tried to kill Hitler, and also hunted and eliminated Saddam Hussein, yet nobody said a word. For every targeted elimination carried out by Israel, it was hit with numerous condemnations and protests, yet the daily US surgical strikes in Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, and Iraq are met with silence. Every time Israel unintentionally harm civilians, the world raises a hue and cry, yet if it happens in Libya, Iraq, Serbia, or Kosovo nobody protests.
Murder at Tomb Illustrates the Future of Jewish Holy Sites in a Palestinian State
On April 24, 2011 Jewish worshipers at Joseph's Tomb were attacked by members of the US-trained PA/PLO police. One person was murdered and several others wounded. Rather than keep the peace and root out the terrorists who are a threat to the safety of both Jews and Arabs, the PA/PLO police have yet again proven themselves to be a group that is willing to commit acts of terrorism themselves. And this is not the first time they have done this at Joseph's Tomb.
UN Must Help Block Terrorist Plan to Run Israel's Gaza Blockade Disguised as Humanitarians
Once again pro-Arab, anti-Israel activists plan to set sail to Gaza in as many as 15 ships, proclaiming that their only goal is to deliver humanitarian supplies to residents of Gaza. This is a lie. Israel and the United States have called on the United Nations Security Council to take a stand against this action.
Views/Commentary
Those Contradictory Militants
The mainstream media, politicians, and others, prefer to use the term "militant" instead of "terrorist," especially in the case of the Israeli-Arab conflict. Doing so fulfills many different agendas, in addition to furthering the user's cause. Whatever the case may be, the usage generally distorts the story and causes confusion for the reader, which many times is its exact intention. As with much post-1970s journalism, the longer news media use such language, the less they sound like journalists and the more they are heard as political partisans.
Who Will Teach Tolerance to the Muslims?
There was a time when police officers told battered wives that they had to be more understanding of their husbands. Today they tell Americans to be more understanding of Muslims. They do work hard you know. And if they try to car bomb you sometimes, maybe it's because you don't please them anymore.
But There is a G‑d in Israel
The Jewish exiles shall be ingathered only through faith. If they have it, if they truly believe in the existence of the Creator and Guider of history, the G‑d of Israel, they can bring the final redemption today. Far from fearing what the Gentile will do if they do such a thing, let the Jew tremble as he considers the anger of the Almighty if he does not.

Why Is Israel's Presence in the Territories Still Called "Occupation"?
When an armed force holds territory beyond its own national borders, the term "occupation" is usually used to describe its holding on the land. However, not all the factual situations that we commonly think of as "occupation" fall within the limited scope of the term "occupation" as defined in international law.
