It's ridiculous, but isn't it just one of those rotational roles within the UN, whereby everybody gets a go?
Yes, I guess not everyone knows.
Perhaps reading the article from UN Watch might help enlighten you...

EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell defended Iran’s appointment as a matter of regional rotation, “in consistency with established UN procedures.”

But UN Watch research shows in fact that the Asian group, to which Iran belongs, has held the position four times in the past six years, denying rotations to several other regional groups.
But Iran only once ?

Once is too many in my opinion.

You're happy to defend a regime - that kills young girls for not wearing a piece of cloth on their head - contributing to an organisation that supposedly promotes "human rights", I'm not.

In the end it's your opinion to which you're entitled.

We used to send them up chimneys and hang them for stealing. The self righteous in the UK gladly still buy cheap goods made in foreign lands by kids for minuscule wages.

I'm not talking about what's been on this board but what's been out on the streets . See my link above . Hamas and their supporters are defiantly 100% Nazi's . Hamas themselves have said they want to kill all the Jews . What's your definition of a Nazi if that's not it . ?

Countless Israeli politicians have said they want to kill all Palestinians - they generally say that on Israeli TV, radio etc. The current set of Israeli politicians are rabid, ultra right wing, religious fanatics. And yet we have even liberals here in the UK supporting an ultra right wing regime purely because they don't want to offend the jewish population.

For a western audience they like to say they never target civilians and that the military only engages in precision warfare. The evidence on the ground suggests they are following through with their rhetoric aimed at the Israeli public.

noun

a member of the far-right National Socialist German Workers' Party.

So you and the other two are talking absolute bollocks. Offensive bollocks at that.

None of them show that left wingers are Nazis since Nazis are right wing. You might consider them to hold extreme views, but that is different. Hope this helps!

Correct, the "Pro-Palestinian Peace Marchers" are not Nazis by the definition of the word, even though they draw swastikas on things.

They're just anti-semitic.

They also seem to have a hatred of McDonald's for some reason.

Can't speak for all of them but assume drawing swastikas on stuff is part of accusing others of being Nazis, rather than saying "hey guys, we're Nazis!". But either way, doing so on Jewish or Jewish related buildings or monuments is deplorable.

Is this real? Sounds like a film.
It reads legit, and corroborates the IDF claims of warning civilians in advance of a strike. I cannot begin to imagine how terrifying it must be to be on the receiving end of one of those calls though, and knowing that you have to raise the alarm amongst your neighbours.
