1/ “Mr. President: Never before, in the history of Israel’s seven decades of existence, has its men, women and children come under such a massive aerial assault, forcing them, at the sound of air raid sirens day and night, to run for shelter.“

2/ “I ask each ambassador in this chamber to take a moment and imagine terrorists deliberately firing deadly rockets at the airports of Heathrow, Charles de Gaulle, or Frankfurt; Rio de Janeiro, Johannesburg, or Tokyo. How would your government react?“
“Finally, we ask: If those who refuse to speak out for Palestinians—1800 Palestinians, if not more—who were starved to death, murdered, by Assad in Syria, but you only cry out when Israel can be blamed, then you are not pro-human rights, you are only anti-Israel.“
That UNHRC debate took place in July 2014, after the Hamas rocket attacks on Israeli civilians of that summer. Tomorrow there will be a UNGA debate on the current sequel to that aggression. Because the UN rewards Hamas, they keep attacking Israelis & sacrificing their own people.
