2 terror groups take part in shameful UN forum to mark 50 years of occupation:
Danny Danon told Fox News: “The UN is colluding with supporters of terror seeking to harm Israel,” A Ramallah human rights group called Al Haq, has ties to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP.) This group claimed responsibility for killing woman police officer Hadas Malka. The other group is the Gaza based Al Mezan Center for Human Rights, which does legal work for the Hamas.
“It’s beyond comprehension that UN funds are supporting organizations which aid terrorists and incite against Israel. We call on the Secretary General to intervene immediately and prevent these individuals from appearing at the UN,” Danon said.
Needless to say the forum is shameful and it should surprise no one that the UN sits with its natural partners for shameful meetings that are nothing more than Israel bashing.
