Updated: The Anti-American, Anti-Semitic Agenda of UN Human Rights Council Envoy Richard Falk
What type of person serves as the UN Human Rights Council’s permanent Investigator of Israeli violations? The type who compares Israel’s treatment of Palestinians to Nazi atrocities, who promotes conspiracy theories about 9/11 and who posts anti-Semitic caricatures depicting Jews as bloodthirsty dogs on his personal blog.
UN Watch reveals the latest manifestation of extreme bias by the UN Human Rights Council’s envoy who was appointed to “investigate” Israeli “violations.” Read about it and UN Watch’s letter of complaint to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights here.
UPDATE: Falk Responds to crticism about the caricature posted on his blog by first denying it and then deleting it. Click here to see a screen shot of the blog before Falk deleted the offensive cartoon.
