That doesn't prove they're bad on HR, it just proves Israel commits a majority of the violations.Really?
"UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon and former High Commissioner for Human Rights Mary Robinson criticized the council for acting according to political considerations as opposed to human rights. Specifically, Secretaries General Kofi Annan and Ban Ki Moon, the council's president Doru Costea, the European Union, Canada and the United States have accused the council of focusing disproportionately on the IsraeliPalestinian conflict."

"As of 2010, Israel had been condemned in 32 resolutions by the Council since its creation in 2006. The 32 resolutions comprised 48.1% of all country-specific resolutions passed by the Council.[55] By April 2007, the Council had passed nine resolutions condemning Israel, the only country which it had specifically condemned.[56] Toward Sudan, for instance, a country with human rights abuses as documented by the Council's working groups, it has expressed only "deep concern."

"In 2006, UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan argued that the Commission should not have a "disproportionate focus on violations by Israel. Not that Israel should be given a free pass. Absolutely not. But the Council should give the same attention to grave violations committed by other states as well." Source - Wikipedia
On 20 June 2007, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon issued a statement that read: "The Secretary-General is disappointed at the council's decision to single out only one specific regional item given the range and scope of allegations of human rights violations throughout the world." Source - Wikipedia
In case you missed the point, even successive UN Secretaries General have noticed the blatantly anti-Israel nature of the UN's "human rights" agency.

I can assure you every Nazi scumbag on the planet agrees with you but that doesn't make your opinion worth diddly. In fact...
There are also plenty of jews in Israel who feel the crazies in the settlements are only stirring the pot and making things worse. Are they Nazi's too?
