Europe, US pressuring Israel to endure discrimination at UN Human Rights Council
Rådet skall den 29 oktober behandla Israel och hur de mänskliga rättigheterna respekteras i landet (UPR).Behandlingen borde ha skett redan i våras men eftersom Israel vägrade infinna sig sköts behandlingen upp.
Israel bojkottar rådet eftersom Israel särbehandlas i rådet. Israel ensamt behandlas under en speciell permanent punkt på dagordningen medan alla andra 192 stater behandlas tillsammans under en annan punkt.
Israel är den enda staten som inte tillåts vara med i någon av de fem regionala grupper som förbereder arbetet i rådet och Israel fördöms gång på gång i rådet där de muslimska staterna understödda av andra diktaturstater har stort inflytande.(ca 35% av alla resolutioner som kritiserar en speciell stat har riktats mot Israel.)
FN:s mänskorättsråd sköt upp behandlingen av Israel (29.01.2013)
Här kan man läsa hur Saudi-Arabien prisades i rådet:
