Rare Moment of Truth at the UN: Maria Corina Machado, a leading Venezuelan opposition figure, took the floor just now at the UN Human Rights Council to call out the gross abuses of the Maduro regime—which, absurdly, sits on the UNHRC as a member.

"El último informe de la misión independiente para la determinación de los hechos sobre Venezuela evidencia lo que todos sabemos: en Venezuela no hay justicia, no hay respecto a la ley. El régimen Chavista-Madurista se propuso como todo sistema totalitario someter a la justicia."
"La justicia no existe para defender el ciudadano sino para oprimirlo, para hacer intocable al régimen y sus corruptos, para imponer el terror, y los que más miedo tienen son los administradores de justicia: jueces, fiscales, funcionarios, y lo sé porque me lo dicen."
"Una actuación independiente conforme a la ley es considerada una traición a la tiranía y son ellos entonces tanto instrumentos de la represión como rehenes del sistema."

.@TheCJN: “Canada is failing to uphold its values when it comes to racist and antisemitic teachers at UN-run schools for Palestinian children, which Ottawa helps fund. That’s the view of Hillel Neuer, the Montreal-born executive director of UN Watch.”
:thecjn.ca/un-watch-uncov…
In reply to the UN Watch report, the Canadian foreign ministry told The CJN:

“Canada is concerned by the allegations that certain employees of UNRWA posted comments on social media that appear to violate UN values, including the principle of neutrality.
“Canada and like-minded donor governments are engaging closely with UNRWA as it follows up on these allegations.

BREAKING: UNRWA, the UN agency that runs schools for Palestinians, has announced it is investigating 10 of its staffers after UN Watch exposed 100 teachers and school principals that praise Hitler and incite anti-Jewish hatred and terrorism on social media.unwatch.org/unrwa-announce…
UNRWA’s statement also suggested they may have penalized up to 40 more employees appearing on the list of UNRWA employees guilty of incitement, published in this week’s report by UN Watch, a Geneva-based human rights group that monitors the United Nations. unrwa.org/newsroom/offic…
The unprecedented speed of UNRWA’s response follows strong demands made by Israel’s Ambassador to the US & UN Gilad Erdan, who sent the UN and UNRWA harsh letters of complaint, calling on UNRWA to fire the perpetrators.

.@HillelNeuer dans @LeTemps: ”Lorsqu'en septembre 2005, Israël retirait l’entier de ses troupes et de ses civils de Gaza, il espérait la paix en retour. A la place, les villes israéliennes ont reçu des milliers de missiles tirés par le Hamas et le Jihad islamique.” Image
Les Israéliens qui préconisaient le retrait pensaient que cela susciterait au moins un soutien international si Israël était un jour attaqué.

Pourtant, comme le montrent les récents développements à la Cour pénale internationale, c’est le contraire qui se produit.
Les efforts d'Israël pour défendre ses citoyens contre des attaques meurtrières - rien qu'en mai, 4 300 missiles ont été tirés sur des Israéliens par des organisations terroristes palestiniennes - font maintenant l'objet d'une enquête pour crimes de guerre présumés.

How has the UN reacted to the harrowing uptick in antisemitism following last month's Israel-Hamas flare-up?

Thread from UN Watch New York Associate Hilary Miller's op-ed in @TheSpectator. ⬇️ spectator.us/topic/united-n…
António Guterres, the UN’s secretary-general, has described rising anti-Semitism as a ‘multi-headed monster’ of intolerance that’s creating a ‘tsunami of hatred’ across the world, and the UN proclaims ‘anti-racism’ as its defining ideology.
But the UN is failing to confront discrimination and violence against Jews — and at times even nurturing it.
