The Algemeiner—World’s Democracies Snub Annual Israel-Bashing ‘Item 7’ Debate at UN Human Rights Council Geneva Gathering:

The world’s democracies collectively snubbed the UN Human Rights Council’s annual condemnation of Israel in Geneva on Monday, when none of their representatives attended the council’s presentation and debate on  “Item 7” — a permanent agenda item focused on the “Human rights situation in Palestine and other occupied Arab territories.”

As was the case last year, the seats of all the democratic nations represented on the council were empty for the duration of the discussion, sparking protests from Arab countries.

The United States has never attended an Item 7 debate since the council was established in 2006 as a successor to the Commission on Human Rights. In an address to the council on June 6, US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley charged that “Item 7 is a scandalous provision that must be removed.”

Hillel Neuer — executive director of the Geneva-based UN Watch NGO — told The Algemeiner that the non-attendance at Monday’s session signaled a “significant stand by the Western democracies against prejudice.”

Neuer added that he himself had taken part in the debate primarily to point out why the democratic countries were absent. “Hopefully, one day Item 7 will be removed,” he said.

In his speech before the council, Neuer observed that “the US, Canada, Australia, all European Union member states, Japan, and other established democracies have boycotted this debate.”

Neuer continued: “The democracies are absent to protest prejudice — because this is the only agenda item that singles out one specific state, the Jewish state, for differential and discriminatory treatment. Not Syria, Sudan or North Korea is treated this way.”

Nonetheless, the absence of these countries did not prevent routine denunciations of Israel, with serial human rights abusers like Syria, Lebanon and Venezuela attacking Israel’s human rights record and depicting it as the “greatest threat to peace in the Middle East.”

SnyderTalk Comment:

Thanks to President Trump, some countries are beginning to push back against Israel bashing in the U.N. Human Rights Council (UNHRC), but a lot more needs to be done.

The problem is not limited to the UNHRC.  See “California university hit with lawsuit for antisemitic behavior”.

Anti-Semitism is on the rise throughout the U.S., but it is most evident at our universities.  On college campuses where the pursuit of truth is supposed to be the primary goal, anti-Israel bias has become a politically correct form of anti-Semitism.   Even schools like Harvard and MIT suffer from this malady.

In other words, anti-Semitism is a problem in all segments of our society, even among the intellectual elite.

Watch the short video below.  It speaks volumes about anti-Israel bias in the mainstream media.

Anti-Israel bias is not right.  It’s not fair.  It’s anti-Yahweh to the core.

Switching Gears

See “Turkey aims to tighten Muslim grip on Temple Mount”.

People who are pushing for Muslim control of the Temple Mount are taking sides against Yahweh.  Turkey’s President Erdogan is positioning himself to be their champion.  He believes that it will enable him to become someone like Saladin.  His arrogance and ambition know no bounds.  He is a thoroughly dangerous man.

While the mainstream media is doing its best to take our eyes off the ball, President Trump and people in his administration, with the exception of Attorney General Sessions, are doing their jobs and making great headway.  The U.N. in particular is getting an attitude adjustment thanks to Team Trump.

“If My people who are called by My Name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7: 14)

Change that Yahweh calls “good” begins in the hearts of believers—people who are recognizable because they are different.

We are different because we belong to Him and are called by His Name.  We are Yahweh’s people, His followers.

Must Jewish People Convert to Christianity to be Saved? is a book that you will want to read.

In it, you will discover facts that most Christians are unfamiliar with.  It will enlighten you about the true faith of believers dating back to the time of Abraham.

The Messiah didn’t try to create a new religion.  Neither did the apostles nor His followers.  For the most part, the religion that we know today as “Christianity” is either Catholic or an extension of Catholicism.

That’s a serious problem.  Must Jewish People Convert to Christianity to be Saved? explains why.

The book is available in three formats: paperback, eBook, and PDF format.  Click on the titles below to access the version you want:

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17: 22-24)
