UN rights council scorecard: 5 Israel resolutions, Syria 2


Haley railed Friday that the Geneva-based Human Rights Council every March sets aside only two sessions to debate rights violations and abuses — one for Israel and one for the rest of the world. "When the Human Rights Council treats Israel worse than North Korea, Iran and Syria, it is the council itself that is foolish and unworthy of its name," she said. "When that happens, as it did today, the council fails to fulfill its duty to uphold human rights around the world," she said. Haley said the Trump administration is continuing to evaluate its membership in the Human Rights Council. "Today's actions make clear that the organization lacks the credibility needed to be a true advocate for human rights."
