T he UN Human Rights Council has
condemned democratic Israel far more
than any of the other 192 states. Indeed, it
shamefully dedicates an entire agenda item
to scrutinize Israel annually—the only country
so segregated.
As U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley has stated:
“No other country—not Iran, not Syria, not
North Korea—has an agenda item devoted
solely to it. Agenda Item 7 is not directed at
anything Israel does. It is directed at the very
existence of Israel.”
Israel has no realistic chance to serve on the
47-member Council. But the worst human
rights offenders on the planet do and are
among those judging Israel. Clearly, the UN
has defaulted on its founding commitment to
the “sovereign equality” of all member states.
