United Nations anti-Semite-in-chief Richard Falk has pinned blame for the Boston Marathon bombing on America and, you surely guessed, Israel.
So once more, the call goes out for the UN to fire Falk as the Human Rights Council’s special investigator of conditions in the Palestinian territories, a post he uses to groundlessly bludgeon the Jewish state.
Alas, once more, Falk appears likely to stay in place among the council’s like-minded ilk. All too mildly, a spokesman noted that Secretary General Ban Ki-moon had not appointed Falk and hoped that he would “understand that . . . public comments can undermine the credibility and the work of the United Nations.” Fat chance.
Falk has called Israel’s leaders Nazis, accused them of genocide and suggested former President George W. Bush ordered the destruction of the twin towers. He has posted a cartoon of a dog wearing a yarmulke with a Star of David, eating a human carcass and urinating on Lady Justice.
Now he rationalizes the Islamist radicalization of the brothers Tsarnaev by writing: “The American global domination project is bound to generate all kinds of resistance in the postcolonial world. In some respects, the United States has been fortunate not to experience worse blowbacks, and these may yet happen.”
He added: “As long as Tel Aviv has the compliant ear of the American political establishment, those who wish for peace and justice in the world should not rest easy.”
Falk is a loon, the council is despicable and the secretary general is distressingly tolerant of a deep stain on the world body.
