And now UNESCO

Post by DRSB » Thu Oct 12, 2017 2:23 pm

Why don't they quit everything and self-isolate!
The United States has formally notified the UN’s world heritage body Unesco that it is withdrawing its membership of the organisation, citing “continuing anti-Israel bias” and “mounting arrears”.

The US really is a world embarrassment. It's the ultimate evidence that we are a fuckup of a species.

I mean, they are right about UNESCO. Not sure it amounts to reason to withdraw from it.

Why is "continuing anti-Israel bias" reason to leave UNESCO when Israel is still a member?

Well, it all comes down to declaring Hebron a World Heritage site, and designating israel as an occupying force.
I must admit i AM surprised israel has not withdrawn either.

Not surprised the scumbag regime is supporting another scumbag regime. After Saudi Arabia it shouldn't be a shock.
