U.N. Condemns Israel 8 Times, Ignoring Rest of the World

The United Nations General Assembly has adopted eight resolutions condemning Israel, while no resolutions were passed against any other country. The resolutions single out Israel for "repressive measures" against Syrian citizens in the Golan Heights and reaffirm the mandates of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) and the U.N.'s "special committee to investigate Israeli practices affecting the human rights of the Palestinian people and other Arabs of the Occupied Territories." Critics argue that these resolutions demonize Israel and ignore human rights abuses in other countries.
