Israel singled out

In the September 2nd daily press briefing by the office of the spokesperson for the Secretary-General of the U.N. the following was discussed.

On the Horn of Africa, the UN refugee agency (UNHCR) says that it is very concerned about the increasingly poor health of Somalis recently arriving in Ethiopia. Nearly one fifth of all children at the Kobe camp are suffering from severe acute malnutrition, while high rates are also being reported at other sites.

One would assume that this would be a major concern for those attending the briefing. However, when the spokesperson asked if anyone had any questions, the first question, as well as the preponderance of questions, related to the Gaza flotilla report.

My first question is that, actually we were told by the Spokesperson’s Office that the Secretary-General was going to have a statement on the flotilla report, and we haven’t heard about the flotilla report. Has the report been submitted to the Secretary-General officially?
Read full briefing and get an idea of how acute malnutrition doesn't disturb the questioners. http://www.un.org/News/briefings/docs/2011/db110902.doc.htm

WND has an article about an attorney who is not assured that an ariline won't discriminate.

The New York Port Authority has been asked to investigate what state and federal anti-discrimination laws might be violated by imposing anti-Jewish Islamic restrictions on passengers boarding flights to Jeddah from the publicly owned JFK Airport.
The request has been brought by a Washington attorney who first raised questions about Delta Air Lines and its new agreement to include Saudi Arabian Airlines in its Sky Team Alliance of airlines.

  1. Heartbreaking that the real atrocities are overlooked due to their obsession with Israel:
