"[Israel controls world media". Tell that to the Swedes !! ]
“I wanted to do something to counter this disinformation,” Persson said. “So little attention is paid to the fate of victims of terrorism, I decided to focus on that.”
Persson expressed concern that SVT‘s refusal to show his documentary will compel other filmmakers to engage in self-censorship when dealing with the Middle East.” Artists are censoring themselves to remain part of the media,” he said. “They don’t want to be punished by the BDS movement, which is very influential in the European filmmaking community, with the support of people like (award-winning British director) Ken Loach.”

“While there will be a total of 20 resolutions against Israel this session, not a single U.N. General Assembly resolution is planned today or this year for gross human rights abusers such as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Venezuela, China, Cuba, Pakistan or Zimbabwe.”
“At a time when Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and his state-controlled media incite to the continued stabbing and shooting of Israeli Jews, the U.N.’s response is to reflexively condemn Israel in nine separate resolutions, each of them one-sided, each of them utterly silent on Palestinian abuses.”
The resolution drafted annually by Syria condemns Israel for holding on to the Golan Heights, and demands Israel hand the land and its people to Syria.
“It’s astonishing,” said Neuer. “After the Syrian regime has killed its own people by the hundreds of thousands over six years, how can the U.N. call for more people to be subject to Assad’s rule? The timing of today’s text is morally galling, and logically absurd.”
“Today’s resolutions claim to care about Palestinians, yet the U.N. is oblivious to the dozens of Palestinians who have been slaughtered, maimed and expelled by Assad’s forces, and more than 3,000 victims killed since 2011.”
“Today’s farce at the General Assembly underscores a simple fact: the U.N.’s automatic majority has no interest in truly helping Palestinians, nor in protecting anyone’s human rights; the goal of these ritual, one-sided condemnations remains the scapegoating of Israel,” said Neuer.

All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) announced that it endorsed boycotts against Israel until it “complies with international law, in order to stand for the rights of the Palestinian people and to resist the corporate takeover of the Indian agriculture sector by Israeli companies.”
AIKS is a communist organization that is spread across 21 states in India and is over 16 million members strong.
While this boycott’s financial significance is probably negligible, the moral statement is deplorable and must be protested by anyone who espouses moral consistency.
Israel has a long and proud history of providing aid to Indian farmers and helping them develop their agricultural endeavors.
In October 2017, thanks to Israeli drip irrigation, 15,000 farmers in Karnataka, southwestern India, harvested their first monsoon season crop in years.
Israeli biotech company, BioFeed, has developed a “no-spray” solution to kill the fruit flies that have been devastating mango plantations in India.
In 2016, the Indian state of Haryana initiated micro-irrigation projects based on Israeli expertise at 14 sites. Israeli agricultural professionals work extensively in Haryana and neighboring Punjab, as well as around the country.

Lord Polak dodged questions about setting up Priti Patel's secret Israel meetings as he was confronted by reporters at a hotel.
The Conservative Peer was filmed awkwardly shuffling through the corridors of the building's gym, as he tried to flee from the TV crew, and had to call on a member of staff to intervene.
On Monday it was revealed he accompanied Ms Patel to 12 secret summits with Israeli ministers, officials, businessmen and charity bosses during a two-week holiday with her husband and son in August.
Lord Polak is the honorary president of the Conservative Friends of Israel lobby group, which has given the Tories almost £400,000.
