The Palestinians rejected a million COVID-19 vaccine doses from Israel, claiming they “fall short of meeting the technical criteria” as they were soon to expire.

Now 🇰🇷 South Korea will use them.

I wonder why S. Korea is so successful & the PA so not.

The South Koreans chose moving forward, hard work and prosperity, and the Palestinians together with the Arab states used @UNRWA to nourish grievance, hate and war:
Crates of Pfizer vaccines—what the Palestinian Authority rejected on spurious grounds—were just loaded on an Israeli plane on its way to South Korea.

If like @KenRoth you encourage Palestinian self-destructive behavior, you're not pro-Palestinian.
The Pfizer vaccines left the Israeli Health Ministry-run Teva Sela Logistics Center today for Seoul. The seven vaccine crates were packed at a temperature of -80°C and equipped with highly sensitive temperature sensors.

As the UN Human Rights Council marks its 15th anniversary, let the record show that no country in the world has sat longer on this body than 🇨🇺 Cuba's oppressive regime, which won repeated election to 3-year terms in 2006, 2009, 2014, 2017 & 2020.

@mbachelet, why are you silent?
On May 18, Cuba's regime arrested rapper Maykel Osorbo @Mov_sanisidro—of the viral hit #PatriayVida—on false charges. None of his family was informed for nearly two weeks.

@mbachelet @antonioguterres @ONU_es: Why is Cuba's brutal Communist dictatorship sitting on your “Human Rights Council“?

There have been many great Americans, but the greatest of all was Abraham Lincoln:

“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”
“Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war.”
“We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.”

Palestinian journalists rallied at a UN building in Ramallah pleading for protection from Palestinian forces. Twelve journalists, including 5 women, were assaulted by Palestinian police in weekend unrest.

But if the UN can't blame Israel, they will do 0.
i24news.tv/en/news/middle…
Reporter Naila Khalil, a reporter with The New Arab media outlet, said Palestinian reporters had submitted a letter to the UN urging the world body “to take necessary and immediate measures” to protect media freedom.

Journalists protest outside the United Nations office in Ramallah demanding protection following attacks by Palestinian security forces on their colleagues.

They left their cameras on the ground with a note reading in Arabic ‘Freedom of Press’.

To argue US breaks laws, Beinart in NYT—unwittingly—cited UN's 2 most evil reps:

1. Idriss Jazairy—ex-Algerian diplomat, drafted UN resolution to muzzle experts, took $50K from Russia then did report against sanctions on Russia.

2. Alfred de Zayas—hero to Holocaust deniers.

🧵
Beinart cites Jazairy as a "current U.N. special rapporteur." But he's been dead since February 2020. Doesn't @nytimes check facts?

Far worse, Beinart is citing as an authority someone who has been a lifelong enemy of human rights and an apologist for murderous regimes: ⤵️
NYU scholar Prof. Philip Alston, a veteran UN expert, documented in this essay how Idriss Jazairy as Algerian rep to UNHRC led a "personal project" to muzzle the human rights experts. Later, the tyrant-run UNHRC made Jazairy himself a human right expert... unwatch.org/how-idriss-jaz…

On #WorldRefugeeDay, we ask: How come the 850,000 Jewish refugees from the Arab world after 1948 were all successfully resettled in Israel and other countries—with 0 refugees left today—yet @UNRWA has multiplied the number of Palestinian refugees from 700,000 to 5 million?
Most Palestinians under UNRWA’s jurisdiction are not refugees.

UNRWA ex-General Counsel James Lindsay: "UNRWA does not use the UNHCR criteria & does not engage in the sort of analysis required by the Procedural Standards for Refugee Status Determination."

“UNRWA has become part of the problem. It supplies the ammunition to continue the conflict. By supporting UNRWA, we keep the conflict alive. It’s a perverse logic.”

Shame on @UNESCO for honoring the murderer Che Guevara. He led firing squads.

In 2013, UNESCO enshrined “The Life and Works of Ernesto Che Guevara”—even though President Obama’s ambassador urged UNESCO to “not be used as a tool to glorify and legitimize violence.” Image
And @UNESCO_es's tweet did not show the full picture. They omitted this part of Guevara's UN remarks from that day: “Yes, we have executed people; we are executing people and shall continue to execute people as long as it is necessary.“

I urge @SecBlinken to complain to @UNESCO as Obama's rep did in 2013: "The US Mission to UNESCO requests an immediate review of the inscription of the writings of Ernesto Che Guevara in the Memory of the World Register. Che Guevara is a controversial figure who advocated violence
