This is very disturbing. The UN “Human Rights” Commission is known to be a hotbed of anti-Semitism, essentially run by Islamist thugs for the sole purpose of denigrating and attacking Israel. But the Financial Post (Toronto) reports that at a meeting chaired by Canada, Canada’s top diplomat at the UN in Geneva cut off a speech by an accredited speaker as he tried to give testimony about the shameful, sickening anti-Semitism found in so many books published in Islamic countries. This action is shocking and deplorable, and one must hope that the Canadian diplomat involved will receive new instructions that will prevent him from shaming his country in this way in the future. Better still, Canada and all civilized countries should withdraw from this repulsive outfit and let the various thugs who remain talk to each other.
“The action by Ambassador Marius Grinius took place in the UN’s Human Rights Council, where Muslim and Arab countries regularly deliver harangues against the "Zionist Entity" — a term many of them use to describe Israel.
“He said David Littman, delivering a joint statement for the Association for World Education and the World Union for Progressive Judaism, had been "off topic."
“The chamber was debating a series of human rights reports.
“Mr. Littman says his bid to call for a "universal condemnation" of defamations of Judaism was appropriate because a report dealing with freedom of expression and hate speech had been at the top of the agenda list.”
Shame on Grinius.
