Obama Administration Judges Israel on U.N. Human Rights Council

The Obama administration has once again disgraced the United States by becoming a member of the Jew hating United Nations Human Rights Council. The council is dominated by some of the biggest abusers of humanity, and now they are getting ready to pass five resolutions condemning Israel:


-- “The grave violations by Israel in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem”


-- “Right of the Palestinian people to self-determination”


-- “Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and in the occupied Syrian Golan”


-- Follow-up to the report of the U.N. fact-finding mission on the Gaza conflict (the Goldstone report)


-- Follow up to committee of experts’ report on the “flotilla incident”



Considering the company Obama kept before he became president is it any wonder that he couldn’t wait to join this dog pile council. Exactly how many Jew haters did “The One” befriend in Chicago?





I remember the short story and movie, “The Devil and Daniel Webster” where a jury of the country’s most heinous villains sat in judgment of a man who had broken a contract with Satan.  This reminds me of the HRC:



Old Scratch is always looking for a sucker and this administration signed on the dotted line, throwing away the power and prestige of the United States. Benedict Arnold (a juror) would have been proud.



There is one saving grace. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla) has once again introduced a bill that would withhold funding to U.N. agencies until they have demonstrated real reform. CNS reports the following:

The U.S. provides 22 percent of the U.N.’s regular operating budget. The administration’s 2011 budget request for contributions to the regular budget was $516.3 million, part of an overall $1.18 billion for the U.N. and affiliated agencies (the World Health Organization, International Atomic Energy Agency etc.)


Ros-Lehtinen’s U.N. Transparency, Accountability, and Reform Act, introduced in 2007 and again in 2009, sought to make U.S. funding for the U.N. conditional on the implementation of reforms throughout the U.N. system.


Its provisions included placing restrictions on U.S. participation in the HRC and withhold funding to the U.N. proportionate to the amount allocated to the council.


Her 2009 initiative received the support of 106 co-sponsors, all Republicans.

We can expect Obama to veto this bill if it makes it to his desk. He seems to be quite at ease rubbing elbows with the world’s oppressors.
