Gasp a new Israeli insult from women organizations

[Lemon law]

Coming this Friday is an expected UN Women organizations condemnation of long standing Israeli abuse of Palestinians women rights.

And in typical Israeli style, Israel now claims look not at Israel, look instead at Assad's abuse of Syrian women.----ole Bozo Netanyuhu has a millions of similar deflections

Missing in that action is two things. (1) The Israeli abuse of Palestinian women rights has been on going for 64 years. (2) The Syrian Abuse of Syrian women rights is a totally more recent separate issue that involves Israel in almost no way.

So therefore we must address both issues separately and not allow either Assad or Israeli leadership to muddy the water by combining and comparing apples to oranges.

Addressing both issues separately is the only fair way.

Talk about an all encompasing one sided report that is obviously biased......ohhhh

Why would you not post the whole article??
What do you have to hide??? hmmm...okay lets take a look --

UN women's rights panel due to culminate annual session by condemning Israel
Israel's envoy to UN Prosor bemoans Commission on the Status of Women 'obsessive' preoccupation with Palestinian issue, while ignoring women being 'butchered, tortured, raped' in Syria.

Friday's session will include such professional resolution as concerning "woman and natural disasters," "women hostages," women and girls and AIDS," and "mortality among women.

However, the panel is expected to also an eight-clause resolution, determining that the "Israeli occupation" in territories, including East Jerusalem, is the main obstacle for the advancement of the Palestinian woman.

The panel, which includes representatives from 45 countries, including Israel, is considered to be one of the UN's most active and respected bodies.

Responding to the decision to condemn Israel, Israeli envoy to the UN Ron Prosor told Haaretz that the "council's bring levels of absurdity and cynicism to new heights."

"The thousands of Syrian women butchered, tortured, raped and trampled under Assad's iron boot don't even get a passing mention in the panel's decisions," Prosor added.

In private discussions and in response to official Israeli appeals, the panel's European members have attacked the wording of a resolution specifically addressing Palestinian women, and agree that it is not professionally motivated.

However, like similar resolutions accepted in last year's session, European representatives are expected to either back the draft or abstain the vote.

Prosor referred to this apparent pattern, saying that "under the protection of the European states' abstaining, the [CSW] turns its back on the tortured and murdered women of Damascus and continues to obsessively deal with Palestinian women."

"Does the resolution denounce 'honor killings' in the Palestinian society? Does the resolution discuss Hamas' repression of women in Gaza? Of course not. The UN continues to deal with the Palestinian issue without any connection to what's happening on the ground.

As again, Jediy proves my point, by stressing again only Assad abuse of women right in Syria, while refusing to address Israeli abuse of women rights.

Gee it must be my fault and my bias, when I have no control of the findings of women human rights findings by UN international organizations.

Maybe the KarlA comment is more revealing, as he refuses to start thinking for himself. When challenged again, as KarlA curls into a little ball of total denial. Please silly rabbit, don't force me to think? My mind is made up, don't confuse me by the facts.

What a shame that a panel that should be solely concerned about woman's rights around the world should be co-opted and corrupted purely for political grandstanding by a few certain members of that group.

Pathetic.

Then their useful AT idiot comes trotting straight to P&N to make a post about it, aparently oblivious to a cause being completely politicized and hijacked.

Even more pathetic.

So if one believes all Palestinians are being abused by Israel, and some Palestinians are women, therefore this is a women's rights violation!!!!

It is obvious the panel is a sham....phoney one sided....

Gee it must be my fault and my bias, when I have no control of the findings of women human rights findings by UN international organizations. --
no but you are derelict in not posting all the facts! Just because the article title seems to anti Israel you jump on it without reading it...hmmm...ok Kylebisme...

I would not object so much to what the article says if it was not one sided....and addressed as Prosor said -- "The thousands of Syrian women butchered, tortured, raped and trampled under Assad's iron boot don't even get a passing mention in the panel's decisions,"

But hey I thought you were different than Kylebisme...oh well.... Or for that matter what about the other countries with womens rights issues??? This is purely political!!

 

[Freshgeardude]

Does the article condemn the greater middle east's abuse of women?

Absolutely not.

this is all politics.

If this organization really wanted something to change, they would make notice of the atrocities against women in the sharia-lawed countries like Saudi Arabia which makes it punishable by death for a women to walk the street alone, without a man.

1) Why stop at Israel at 64 years. Muslim denials of women rights have been for 900 years.

2) The article slams the report as political fodder - which you prefer

3) Where are you addressing the Syrian issue? Or did you convienently forget to start a thread on that issue. :whiste: Why - because it does not support your political views - fairness is not the word you understand - bias is.

If they condemn Israel and fail to condemn another regime with a vastly worse record on womens' rights, they are hypocrites. You should be well familiar with this form of hypocrisy since you practice it yourself on a regular basis.
