Israel, and only Israel, came under the gun of the United Nations Human Rights Council Monday, which voted for two resolutions criticizing the Jewish state.
In the six months since its formation, this organ of the UN has voted exclusively against Israel.
As far as it is concerned, no other nation on the planet is currently murdering, torturing or otherwise abusing the human rights of others.
In Monday's votes Israel's 1981 annexation of the Golan Heights was ruled illegal. The fact that:
the Heights were part of the land promised to the Jews under the Balfour Declaration and by the League of Nations in San Remo
Syria used the Golan as a platform from which to murder Jewish farmers and other civilians in the Upper Galilee; and
while Syria only occupied them for 19 years, the Heights have been under Israel for more than twice that length of time
all this meant nothing to the council.
In the second vote, the council decided that Israel should reverse its policy of buiding and expanding towns and villages for Jews in the heart of that nation's ancient homeland.
Canada was the only participating state to vote against the resolutions.
