Israel Withdraws From UNESCO Over Jerusalem Decision by morereb10: 4:17pm On Dec 24, 2017
The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that his country will withdraw from the UN cultural agency UNESCO. Must news agency has rumored that Israel withdrawal maybe in connection to the UN decision against US on Jerusalem.

Netanyahu had already announced in October that Israel would pull out of UNESCO following a decision by President Donald Trump to withdraw the U.S. from the agency for its alleged “anti-Israel bias.”

A Foreign Ministry spokesman had said Saturday that a letter of withdrawal will be sent before the start of the new year.

“Over the weekend I instructed the Foreign Ministry to withdraw from UNESCO,” Netanyahu said at the start of his weekly cabinet meeting. “I think that this is necessary in light of the biased, unilateral and absurd attitude of the organization towards us and also in the background of the U.S. strong stance in the UN, which we welcome,” he continued.

Israel has complained that a succession of UNESCO motions condemning its actions in Jerusalem did not take into account Jewish links to the city and the disputed holy site known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary and to Jews as the Temple Mount.

Earlier in the year, the agency added the old town of Hebron in the West Bank, a pilgrimage site for Christians, Jews and Muslims, under its World Heritage Sites in Palestine, sparking outrage in Israel. Netanyahu’s statement comes as the UN General Assembly last week overwhelmingly voted to rebuke Washington over its recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

“Those who do not want a solution to the conflict are the Palestinians,” Netanyahu said, referring to a statement by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas that he would not work with the U.S. on any peace process.

Have you ever asked yourself why majority of the UN members oppose the move of the United States?

Let’s forget about history embedded in holy books and focus on the present reality of the new days.

This present state of Israel is a creation of the UN and there is a resolution binding that creation as to adopt a certain agreement of a two- state solution to the issue about Jerusalem.

Most UN members are against trump not because they want to favor Palestine or the Muslims but they are just fighting for common sense and humanity.

Just go on google and read about the creation of this present state of Israel.

Jerusalem will not be divided. It's Israel's capital. Trump is blessed for this but those who oppose it are not. May there be peace in Jerusalem.

It is not because of their economic interest. There was never a time Europe supported Israel. Trump's actions contributed to more votes against Israel. Everybody knows that Trump's move is political and he needs to be cut to size. Trump will never get it right if he continues this way.

You call it a joke. Try and find out the major budgetary donors before typing trash.

Anyways, it's a good thing. The US has been looking to leave the UN for decades and this Jerusalem brouhaha seems to be the perfect decoy.

The world needs the US. The US does not need the rest of the world.

The Isrealis are a stubborn bunch, and now Trump's decision has given them the momentum to ride on.

Whether fairness or humanity or whatever, what will be, will be. The way i see it, things is about to get very turbulent and the man in charge in US of A doesn't seem to care whose ox is gored especially if he has the backing and support of Jews. At the end he will be a tool to further their agenda.

Much of Americans wealth are in Jewish hands, so we know who will be pulling the strings.

I am just curious as to what role the Russians are playing in all this, that has to be the region that always comes out alive no matter the enemy.
