UN Watch wrote a letter to the head of the UN Human Rights Council and attached a 30 page report proving that Navi Pillay, who was appointed to lead an inquiry on Israeli actions, is biased against Israel.
The facts aren't even in question. Of course she is biased. Here is the table of contents of the report:
STATEMENT OF FACTSA. Commission of Inquiry Was Created to Target Israel.B. Pillay Declared Israel Guilty for 2021 Hostilities That She is InvestigatingC. Pillay Repeatedly Accused Israel of “Apartheid”D. Pillay Described Israel’s Actions as “Inhuman”E. Pillay Defended Antisemitic Durban ProcessF. Pillay Defended Agenda Item Targeting IsraelG. Pillay Pre-Judged Israel Guilty in Prior Gaza ConflictsPillay Prejudged Israel Guilty in 2009 Hamas-Israel ConflictPillay Prejudged Israel Guilty Within Hours of 2010 Flotilla IncidentPillay Prejudged Israel Guilty in 2014 Hamas-Israel War
The head of the Human Rights Council responded with one of the more ridiculous statements the UN has ever put out:
The President of the Human Rights Council places the utmost importance on examining the independence and impartiality of each member in order to ensure the objectivity of the body.Additionally, the President places special emphasis on the qualifications, skills, expertise and experience of the candidates when making his/her appointment.While there were differing views during the negotiations and voting on the resolution that created the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel, once the Council adopted that resolution, the Commission became a mechanism of the Council that deserves the full respect and cooperation of all Council stakeholders.
In other words, we are wonderfully objective and you cannot complain about us with facts.
And it could not be any other way, because he cannot refute a single sentence of that document.
