UN Still a Stage for Anti-Israel Incitement

(Ha'aretz) Shlomo Shamir - Cash continues to flow from the UN budget to finance activities, slogans, and materials that deal with obsolete Middle Eastern affairs. The UN International Conference of Civil Society in Support of the Palestinian People will convene September 4-5, at UN headquarters in New York, just prior to the opening of the UN General Assembly. Israel's deputy UN ambassador, Arye Mekel, noted that the term "terror" as an obstacle to peace does not appear on the conference's agenda. "This event," says Mekel, "is a blatant example of an approach on the part of the UN that is completely cut off from reality. There is cooperation with PA Prime Minister Abu Mazen and signs of progress in the [peace] process, and the UN continues to act as if nothing were happening on the ground."
