Islamic group boasted: “We created the Goldstone Report”

From UN Watch:

In a few weeks, on January 12, 2010, we will mark the one-year anniversary of the UNHRC resolution that commissioned the Goldstone Report. Who was pulling all the strings? Who created Goldstone’s “fact-finding” mission?

The Organization of the Islamic  Conference (OIC), which controls the UNHRC, is not shy, and, in many ways, is far more honest about this than Goldstone. Here’s what OIC secretary-general Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu told Al Jazeera in October:

Let me first start by completing the story of the history of the Goldstone report. What I would like to put on record is that the OIC was the initiator of this process.

On January 3, during the attacks on Gaza, we convened the executive committee of the OIC on a ministerial level. It was decided that the OIC group in Geneva should ask the Human Rights Council to convene and consider the possibility of sending a fact-finding mission to Gaza.

The OIC was instrumental in getting through this resolution and thanks to the good offices of Ms Pilay, the UN high commissioner, that she formed this fact-finding mission headed by Judge Goldstone.

On October 8, I visited Geneva and had a meeting with OIC ambassadors and the high commissioner. We revived the process again and the Goldstone report has been approved by the rights council.

  1. Mass delusion, the Leftists’ disease, really is a form of mental illness which enables the Islamists to play the West like a violin. Disgusting!

    Just as cult members need to be deprogrammed, the West seriously needs to open therapy facilities for Leftists. No joke. We are a society which has no immune system.

  2. Since Islamic groups are getting so adept at taking advantage of the West’s legal system (UN and Goldstone, British arrest laws for diplomats, etc.), they should be seen as abusers and banned. They have no credibility in our society. When will we put 2 and 2 together?

    The UN Security Council has rogue/failed states (Lebanon) as part of their leadership. US’s Homeland Security second in command is Muslim.

    It’s time to dissolve these infected institutions, reaffirm what we stand for in a balanced and realistic way and move forward. Our institutions no longer serve us.
