When you think of violators of women's rights, what nations come to mind? Maybe Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Iran, Pakistan, Nigeria or Afghanistan? Not so, according to the United Nations. The world body just passed a resolution condemning Israel for violating the rights of Arab women. Meanwhile, Arab women in other countries are being stoned to death for adultery, witchcraft or blasphemy.
Whilst singling out Israel as a "violator" of women's rights is, to any halfwit, bloody ridiculous. I believe that it shows the international communities frustration with Israel...
Yes there are countries, including Muslim countries, that carry out far worse "violations" against women. These "violations", although I do not agree with ANY "violation" against man or woman, are carried out, generally speaking within the law of the country. We don't have to agree with the laws of a specific country, it also does not make those laws right for humanity but, unfortunately they do exist.
HOWEVER....
Using the word "violation" is rather antagonistic...
The vote that took place was based upon a document that was adopted by the UN 20 years ago on action required to achieve equality for women.
The resolution stressed the quest for equality and reaffirmed “that the Israeli occupation remains the major obstacle for Palestinian women with regard to their advancement, self-reliance and integration in the development of their society.” It called on the international community to continue providing urgently needed assistance and services “to alleviate the dire humanitarian crisis being faced by Palestinian women and their families.”
Israel singled out at UN for women s right violations The Times of Israel
Wrong again as it shows the depth of anti Semitism and racist Jew hatred still prevalent today. If you bother to look at the facts you will see that the majority of resolutions against Israel are coming from islamonazi sources in the belief that they are helping the Palestinians and re-claiming what was muslim lands under Dar al Islam / Dar al harb
In your brainwashed, self victim, zionist opinion....
Which counts for very little in these parts Phoney!
The message is very clear to those who can think and see clearly!
Only in your fantasy world were Jews don't exist and Israel was never created
