#NEW: THE TOP 10 MOST INSANE
U.N. ANTI-ISRAEL ACTIONS OF 2017
--------------------------------
10. The U.N.’s Beirut-based agency of 18 Arab states published a report accusing Israel of “Apartheid.”
In response, UN Watch executive director Hillel Neuer took the floor to ask Algeria, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Libya, Lebanon, Yemen, and the others, a simple question: “Where are your Jews?” For once, the room was silenced. UN Watch’s speech went viral on the Internet, with the video viewed 5 million times worldwide. https://www.unwatch.org/algeria-jews-hillel-neuer-u-n-huma…/

9. The U.N. women’s rights commission condemned Israel as the world’s only violator of women’s rights. Real abusers of women’s rights, such as Iran, Yemen, and Afghanistan, were ignored. https://www.unwatch.org/u-n-calls-israel-violator-womens-r…/
The next month, UN Watch exposed the U.N.’s election of Saudi Arabia to this same women’s rights commission—and the fact that at least five EU states voted for the Saudis. https://www.unwatch.org/no-joke-u-n-elects-saudi-arabia-wo…/
The story went viral, and created a major scandal in Belgium, where the prime minister eventually admitted their vote and apologized, and sparked controversies in Ireland, Norway and Sweden. https://www.unwatch.org/going-viral-u-n-elects-saudi-arabi…/ Click for video: https://youtu.be/66KkXlcGSh0?t=5m24s

8. In June, 16 U.N. agencies signed an agreement with the “State of Palestine” to spend an unprecedented $18 million to fund lawfare attacks on Israel, couched in the language of human rights, international law and “accountability.” https://www.unwatch.org/u-n-gives-1-3-billion-palestinian-…/
The U.N. campaign seeks to erode Israel’s ability to defend itself from terrorist attacks by Hamas and Hezbollah. As noted by Fox News, “UN Watch, an independent monitoring group based in Switzerland, was one of the first places to highlight and criticize the U.N. spending; executive director Hillel Neuer called on the United States, Canada, and Australia and other democracies to ensure that their taxpayer contributions are not being misused to undermine U.N. institutions through an escalation of politicized attacks on Israel.” http://www.foxnews.com/…/un-document-said-to-be-funding-pal…

7. In October, U.N. Palestine Rapporteur Michael Lynk issued a report advocating an economic boycott of Israeli companies.https://www.unwatch.org/report-u-n-palestine-investigator-…/
When Lynk arrived at U.N. headquarters in New York for his annual press conference, he was startled when three different journalists challenged him over his biased report and mandate. The reporters were prompted by UN Watch’s complaint letter to the Secretary-General which objected to Lynk’s call for a boycott and his ignoring of human rights abuses by the Palestinian Authority and Hamas. Lynk falsely claimed to be “unaware” that he could reference Palestinian violations of human rights.
Thanks to UN Watch’s campaign, the U.S. government issued a statement saying that “Mr. Lynk’s remarks, and the very existence of this report, underscore the Human Rights Council’s chronic anti-Israel bias. The United States will continue to oppose attempts to undermine the UN system through actions that unfairly target Israel.”

6. The UN’s World Health Organization singled out Israel as the only violator in the world of “mental, physical and environmental health, ” and, under pressure from Syria’s Assad regime, deleted parts of a report on Israeli actions in the Golan Heights—because they were positive to Israel.

5. Dubravka Simonovic, the U.N. expert on vioence against women, visited Israel and the territories and concluded: When Palestinian men beat their wives, it’s Israel’s fault.
UN Watch’s executive director took the floor to challenge the U.N. investigator’s report: “Why did you fail to mention that official Palestinian TV regularly broadcasts Islamic preachers who tell the people how to beat their wives?”
(VIDEO: https://www.unwatch.org/egyptian-u-n-chair-refuses-thank-u…/)
In reaction, the Egyptian chair of the meeting broke with parliamentary protocol: “I would like to say thank you, but I can’t,” said Ambassador Amr Ramadan. “Because I think that you need to respect this council more.”
***
4. In its ritual annual scapegoating of the Jewish state, the UN General Assembly adopted 20 one-sided resolutions against Israel—and only 6 resolutions on the rest of the world combined. Tomorrow, at an emergency meeting called by the Arab and Islamic states to condemn the United States over its recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, a 21st resolution will be adopted criticizing the Jewish state.

3. UNESCO negated its mandate to protect world heritage by adopting a resolution recognizing Hebron—second holiest city in Judaism because of the Tomb of the Patriarchs—as a Palestinian world heritage site.
UN Watch revealed that UNESCO had rejected its own experts’ advice, who opposed the Palestinian nomination on account of failing to properly recognize Hebron’s Jewish and Christian heritage.https://www.unwatch.org/hebron-vote-unesco-heritage-body-d…/

2. UNRWA launched a global campaign showing the picture of an 11-year-old girl, “Aya from Gaza,” in a bombed-out building—portraying Israel as a cruel oppressor of Palestinian children—but UN Watch exposed it as a fraud: the photo was actually from Syria. The story went viral online. UNRWA suffered massive embarrassment, and was forced to remove the photo worldwide. https://www.unwatch.org/unrwa-fakes-gaza-girl-campaign-ima…/

1. The office of U.N. human rights commissioner Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein spent the past year preparing to inflame the anti-Israel boycott campaign by drawing up a blacklist of companies that do business in the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem and other Jewish communities over the 1949 armistice line. The report is due to be submitted this month, and presented before the council in March. UN Watch will take the lead in countering the blacklist, what Nikki Haley this week called the “ugly creation” of the UNHRC.



The Arabs expelled over a million Jewish families and confiscated all their assets including businesses, homes and over 120,000 sq. km of Jewish owned Real Estate valued in the trillions of dollars plus Jordan which is Jewish territory. Most of the Jewish families expelled from Arab/Muslim countries were resettled in the Land of Israel and today comprise over half the population in Israel.

ALGERIA
The Jewish people have been present in Algeria since the destruction of the First Temple nearly 2,600 years ago. The first major transition in the Algerian Jewish population resulted from Jewish refugees fleeing the Spanish Inquisition in 1492. This made for a considerable increase in the Jewish population in Algeria. Jews thrived as merchants and formed communities in port towns like Oran and Algiers. They were mostly able to conserve their Ladino language and flourished financially throughout the Ottoman period.
In 1830 the French attacked Algeria and began colonizing the region, eventually reconstructing the Ottoman Empire and putting an end to the mistreatment of Jews. By 1841 Algeria Jewish courts were abolished and French Jews were appointed as chief Rabbis and told to teach obedience to French laws and loyalty to France. Under pressure from the French Jewish community, in 1870 the French government granted Algerian Jews citizenship under the décrets Crémieux of 1870. Algerian Jews began to learn the French language, customs, and culture, primarily by enrolling in the French school system.
Prior to WWII in the late 1930’s, there were roughly 120,000 Jews living in Algeria. Provoked by events occurring in Nazi Germany, a group of Algerian Muslims rioted in 1934, killing 25 Jews and injuring many more. As a colony of France, the Jews of Algeria were subjected to the same Anti-Semitic Vichy policies as French Jews. During WWII, the French Vichy government cancelled the citizenship of Algerian Jews, forbade them from working in numerous professions, and confiscated Jewish property.
In 1962 when Algeria gained independence, the government only granted citizenship to residents whose father or paternal grandfather were Muslims. Additionally, Algeria’s Supreme Court Justice announced that Jews were not protected under the law. Like other Jews from Arab countries, Algerian Jews no longer felt safe and protected in their country, nearly 140,000 Algerian Jews immigrated to France, while smaller numbers fled to Israel, and to North and South America.
Between 1948 and present times, roughly 26,000 Algerian Jews immigrated to Israel. Although substantially diminished in size, the Jews in Algeria were again threatened in 1994 when the terrorist Armed Islamic Group stated its objective to eliminate the Jewish community from Algeria altogether. Even though no attacks were reported, the announcement caused many Jews to leave, abandoning the only remaining synagogue in the country. Today no Jews remain living in Algeria.

Re: Israel - To whom it may concern in the Middle-East, Africa, Europe, Asia, Far East, South America, the US and elsewhere: - YJ Draiman We are tired of hearing that withdrawal from Judea and Samaria will bring peace. We know and you know that it would bring another Gaza a terrorist entity. So stop saying it and promoting this fallacy. Past experience has proven that concessions, appeasement and land for peace only increased terror, violence and more conflict. (See Gaza ) We are tired of hearing that land beyond the Green Line is 'Arab-Palestinian land'. The Green Line is simply an armistice line that has no political significance. You know this too. The San Remo Treaty of April 1920 incorporated the 1917 Balfour Declaration as international law and Granted the Mandate for Palestine in its entirety to the Jewish people, the same Allied powers also established 21 Arab States on over 6 million sq. mi. with a wealth of oil reserves and one Jewish State in all of Pale...

The truth – not the fantasy – is that there was never an independent, sovereign Arab state called Palestine - YJ Draiman

The truth – not the fantasy – is that there was never an independent, sovereign Arab state called Palestine Israel is “the only nation in the world that is governing itself in the same territory, under the same name, and with the same religion and same language as it did 3,000 years ago.” Jerusalem was never the capital of any Arab polity in all of recorded history. Only one people has ever made Jerusalem its capital and only one people ever established their indigenous ancestral and biblical homeland between East of the River Jordan and West to the Mediterranean Sea : the Jews. Israel was reconstituted in 1920 by the April 1920 San Remo Treaty which was confirmed by the August 1920 Treaty of Sevres and Lausanne , also by the January 1919 Faisal Weitzmann Agreement. The Arabs received at the same time over 6 million sq. miles of territory with a wealth of oil reserves and the Jewish State was to receive 46,300 sq. miles which is Palestine. In the years before Israel was...

Arabs terrorized and expelled over a million Jewish families from all their countries - YJ Draiman The Jewish forced exodus from Arab lands refers to the 20th century expulsion or forced departure of Jews, primarily of Middle-Eastern background, from Arab and Islamic countries. The forced migration started in the late 19th century, but accelerated after the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. According to official Arab statistics, over 999,000 Jewish families were terrorized and forced out of their homes in Arab countries from 1948 until the early 1970's. Some 800,000 families resettled in Israel , [1] forced to leave behind personal property, businesses, homes and Jewish-owned real-estate for over 2,600 years is over 120,000 square kilometers (six times the size of the State of Israel). Valued today in the trillions of dollars [4] Not abused? I feel like swearing here. You can bet your rear end they were abused. Patricia Metzger's campaign to achieve justice sheds light on a littl...
