UN chief accuses Israel of misinformation
2024-06-25
[GEO.TV] United Nations
...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense...
 Secretary-General António Guterres
...Portuguese politician and diplomat, ninth Secretary-General of the United Nations. Previously, he was the UN High Commissioner for Refugees between 2005 and 2015. He was the Prime Minister of Portugal from 1995 to 2002 and was the Secretary-General of the Socialist Party from 1992 to 2002. He served as President of the Socialist International from 1999 to 2005. In both a 2012 and 2014 poll, the Portuguese public ranked him as the best Prime Minister of the previous 30 years...
 accused Israel of spreading misinformation about him during the more than eight-month-long war between Israel and Hamas
..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
 in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
 Strip.

"I've heard the same source many times saying that I never attacked Hamas, that I never condemned Hamas, that I am a supporter of Hamas," Guterres told a news conference on information integrity, without naming Israel.

"I have condemned Hamas 102 times, 51 of them in formal speeches, the others in different social platforms," he said. "The truth, in the end, always wins."

Israel's UN Ambassador Gilad Erdan said the condemnations by Guterres were "empty words when compared to his actions."

"His sole aim has been to help Hamas survive this war. We find it despicable that the secretary-general refuses to abide by the UN's standards and paints a distorted picture of events on the ground," Erdan said.

"Antonio Guterres is an accomplice to terror and should resign today."

#2  a little-remembered fact about the UN (as per yesterday's story Misunderstandings of Islam) is that one of its first ever votes (possibly the first) was for the creation of Israel plus a Muslim arab state out of the remains of British Mandate Palestine (from the river to the sea, ie: after they gave Jordan to other Arab Muslims from Mecca, the Hashemites)

So, that vote came down to the wire, 21 to 20 if i recall, there was just 1 vote in it.

And the Arab Muslims made it clear they would immediately declare war the second the British left - and wipe Israel off the face of the earth.

And they did immediately declare war.

And who supported them? Britain. Britain sent a million pounds per year to Jordan to support their cavalry fighting Israel in that war and sent 27 officers to advise them, because Lawrence of Arabia friendships and other nonsense ties created by them in WWI. The Jordanians were the only ones making any inroads against the Israelis, as the other Arab Muslim nations were generally hopeless.

The US told the British - if the UN is seen to fail in this its first ever important undertaking, then nobody will have any faith in it as a mechanism to avert war in international relations. They must be seen to succeed.

And if you don't stop sending money to the Arab Muslims, we are going to cut off your rebuilding money. Britain was in rubble after the war but they were sending money to islam. Yes.

So the British stopped supporting Jordan, and Israel won.

The Arab Muslims also told the United States - if you support the creation of Israel we will turn against you. We will side with the USSR (it was the start of the cold war)

And THAT is why the left sides with Islam

Because the Arab Muslims immediately made alliance with the USSR after the US backed the UN vote to establish Israel and stopped the British from covertly helping Islam

The USSR helped Islam and vice versa after that. Yasser Arafat created the "Palestinian" fake ethnicity with the help of the USSR propaganda strategists in 1964.

#1  The largest voting block at the UN is the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation which is 54 Muslim nations organised on religious grounds.

All of them want Israel to become an Islamic state renamed "Palestine" and think they are religiously entitled to that outcome.

That's your problem at the UN.
