Jack Cohen – The Arab-Muslim Controlled UN
The UN General Assembly has once again passed a resolution denying any connection between the Jews and Jerusalem. This is so obviously false and ridiculous that it brings the UN into ridicule. Everyone with any sense and with minimal education knows that the Jews inhabited Jerusalem for thousands of years as detailed in the Bible, which is in fact a sacred book to Christians and Muslims, as well as Jews. The resolution passed by 148, with 9 against and 14 abstentions.
The Arab-Muslim countries have a stranglehold on the UN and indeed it’s name should be changed to the Arab-Muslim Controlled UN, i.e. AMCUN. The fact is that Muslims conquered Jerusalem in 639 ce and were never there before that date. In fact, Jerusalem has had a Jewish majority since censuses have been taken starting in 1844. Also, Jerusalem has been the center of Jewish culture forever, and that is why the Jews fought against the invading Arab armies and won and recaptured it in 1948. The real question is how can the UN members vote to deny the sovereignty of another member,
These facts however mean nothing to the UN members and they are ignored in favor of the false Arab narrative that seeks to deny Jewish connection with its holiest of sites and in fact deny Jewish sovereignty in the State of Israel. Luckily these GA resolutions are not binding, so actually they make no difference to the status on the ground. The other five anti-Israel resolutions passed included a statement that Arabs are not allowed religious freedom, that is totally untrue and that Arabs are persecuted in Israel, that is an abominable lie.
Every day I interact with Arabs in Beer Sheva, in all walks of life. The Head nurse at my wife’s Residential Home is Wadia, an Arab Beduin. He drives a very nice white car. My GP’s colleague is Dr. Fawzi, an Arab who I have visited on several occasions when my GP was absent. The Ben Gurion University where I work has a very large Arab student population and they are completely free to organize themselves (but they and others are of course not allowed to break the law). These lies are part of the Arab narrative, believed by most of those with a left-wing bias. I challenge anyone to come to Israel and see for themselves how Jews and Arabs live and work freely together. This does not include the Palestinians who live on the West Bank and Gaza, who are not Israeli citizens and many of whom carry out terrorist attacks against Jews and Israel.
As a final act, the UN GA rejected a resolution submitted by the US and Israel labeling Hamas a terrorist organization and a threat to peace. ALthough the resolution garnered 89 country votes and many abstentions and no-shows, it failed to obtain the two-thirds majority required for passage by 9 votes. It was a loss, but also a first. Hopefully a gradual trend started by the resolute action of Ambassador Nicki Haley, who is retiring, and the Trump Administration.
