Israel cuts contact with UN rights council, to protest settlements probe
Israel’s Foreign Ministry orders envoy to Geneva to ignore all phone calls from rights council commissioner; ‘The council sparked this process’, says a senior Israeli official.*
Israel decided Monday to sever all contact with the United Nations human rights council and with its chief commissioner Navi Pillay, after the international body decided to establish an international investigative committee on the West Bank settlements.
The Foreign Ministry ordered Israel’s ambassador to Geneva to cut off contact immediately, instructing him to ignore phone calls from the commissioner, a senior Israeli official said.
Israel will also bar a fact-finding team dispatched by the council from entering Israel and the West Bank to investigate settlement construction.
“We will not permit members of the human rights council to visit Israel and our ambassador has been instructed to not even answer phone calls,” said the official. “The secretariat of the human rights council and Nabi Pilawai sparked this process by establishing an international investigative committee on settlements, and we will thus not work with them anymore and will not appear before the council,” said the official.
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Friday that the move by the UN body proves that the Palestinians do not want to renew negotiations with Israel. “We are dealing with Al-Qaida terror on the one hand and diplomatic terror by Abu Mazen on the other,” Lieberman said, referring to PA President Mahmoud Abbas.
Senior officials in the Prime Minister’s Bureau and the Foreign Ministry said then that Israel would not cooperate with the UN committee. The Prime Minister’s Bureau decided Friday that the committee’s members – who are yet to be determined – would not be allowed into Israel.
Israel is also considering sanctions against the Palestinian Authority in response to the human rights council decision.

And, they will never grow up and join the human race. I guess that’s the price they have to pay for designating themselves as “God’s Chosen”, LOL!

This is another of those situations in which I cannot really express my full feelings without violating the (fairly reasonable) civility guidelines in place in this venue.
This action smacks of such incredible arrogance that the word arrogance is itself inadequate. I think we’d have to call it hubris instead.
The Zionists have committed human rights violations against the Palestinians (and many others) with absolute impunity for so long that they seem to have totally lost touch with reality. The disgusting part is that, as we all know to our sorrow, the power of the international Zionist lobby is so pervasive that Israel (or should I say “the illegal Zionist occupation state”) will probably get away with this. The UNHRC will dither and blither and then back off, again.
In a way there’s an almost biblical inevitability about all of this. It’s like the Zionists are set on re-enacting history, except this time they didn’t even have time to rebuild the Temple, and their hubris is about to bring yet another wave of destruction down upon them.

IF only Truman had listened to Marshal and the rest of the Pentagon
in ’48. They warned him repeatedly and when he decided he would recognize Isreal anyway they made out a form in which he would have to write in the country himself as no military man would do it!

when the Zionists become quiet, this is when they are the most dangerous, as they have stepped back into the shadows to plot their next move.”
Absolutely!
There’s a possibility of a false flag event in the Persian Gulf.
False Flag:
“False flag terrorism” occurs when elements within a government stage a secret operation whereby government forces pretend to be a targeted enemy while attacking their own forces or people. The attack is then falsely blamed on the enemy in order to justify going to war against that enemy.

I think it time that Israel was sent to the wood shed and when the U.S. is setting sights on there rockets and planes to change setting by 1000 miles or more.

The caption is wrong. It is not “The only spoiled Brat in the Middle East” but the “The only spoiled Brat in the World”. Not one so called nation in the world can get away with what Israel does. Not one.
