UN Official Investigating Israel: ‘Jewish Lobby' Controls Social Media'

[Free Beacon] A United Nations official investigating alleged Israeli crimes said in an interview that social media platforms are controlled by an all-powerful "Jewish lobby."

Miloon Kothari, a member of a U.N. Commission of Inquiry that is leading what critics say is a biased investigation against Israel, made the comments during an interview this week with Mondoweiss, an anti-Zionist blog that has been dogged by accusations it amplifies anti-Semitic hatred of Israel and Jews.

"We are very disheartened by the social media that is controlled largely by whether it's the Jewish lobby or it's the specific [nonprofit groups]," Kothari said. "A lot of money is being thrown into trying to discredit us."

Pro-Israel organizations say the investigation into Israel is biased due to its broad mandate and open-ended nature and that Kothari's comments are another sign the investigation will be unfair to Israel. The commission is tasked with identifying the root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It already has concluded in one report that "Israel has no intention of ending the occupation"—language that critics of the probe say reveals the inquiry's implicit bias against the Jewish state.
