The U.S. And Israel to Withdraw From UNESCO

The U.S. And Israel to Withdraw From UNESCO

The United States and Israel announced on Thursday they were withdrawing from The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) amid claims the organization is biased against Israel, putting the future of the organization in doubt. UNESCO is either ignorant about history or it is trying to rewrite history.
“This decision was not taken lightly, and reflects U.S. concerns with mounting debts at UNESCO, the need for fundamental reform in the organization, and continuing anti-Israel bias,” State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said in a statement.
Totally ignoring a fact of history, UNESCO has passed multiple resolutions negating any Jewish connection to historical religious sites in Israel, even though the Jews have their historical roots in Israel since 3100 BC as Semites when it was called Canaan. In 2016, UNESCO passed a resolution declaring the Temple Mount “a Muslim site of worship”, while labeling Israel an illegal “occupying power”.  The truth be told, the so-called Temple mount is not anyone’s religious site, but - it is’ in fact an historical site of Israel. It was historically used as King Herod’s Roman Fort of Antonia where 6000 roman troops were quartered during the 1st century AD when in 28AD the roman aqueduct was built bringing the first much needed water from Bethlehem to the soldiers at fort or the misnamed Temple Mount.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was highly supportive of the decision by the U.S. and announced on Thursday night that Israel will also be withdrawing from UNESCO, stating: “This is a brave and moral decision because UNESCO has become a theatre of absurd. Instead of preserving history, it distorts it.”
UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova expressed her disappointment in the U.S. decision. “At the time when conflicts continue to tear apart societies across the world, it is deeply regrettable for the United States to withdraw from the United Nations agency promoting education for peace and protecting culture under attack,” she said. “This is a loss to the United Nations family. This is a loss for multilateralism.”
 “Today is a new day at the U.N. when there is a price to pay for discrimination against Israel,” Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon said.
The price is indeed steep. In accordance with an amendment mandating a complete cutoff of American financing to any United Nations agency that accepts the so-called Palestinians as full members, the U.S. began withholding its funding for UNESCO in 2011. American funds account for $70 million annually, about 20 percent of the organization’s budget. This was in protest to UNESCO admitting Palestine as a full member. Washington’s arrears on its $80 million annual dues are now over $500 million. The organization is struggling financially and this recent development puts its future in question.
Under UNESCO rules, the U.S. withdrawal will take effect in December 2018.
UNESCO has been in the process of selecting a new head and after four days of secret balloting, Qatar’s Hamad bin Abdulaziz al-Kawari qualified for the Friday runoff. Qatar is a small oil-rich nation and an ally of the U.S. that has been sponsoring terrorism and allowing terror financiers to operate within its borders.

THE BOTTOM LINE: The United Nations is nothing but a United Communist Islamic Jihadist promoting organization. And the only reason that the U.S. should continue to be a member of the U.N. is the old proverb of “keep your friends close and your enemies closer.” The United Nations is the enemy of the Free World. 

And folks hang on to your camel dung, as I have been claiming for longer than I can remember, there is really no such people as the Palestinians.  The existence of the Palestinian people is truly the biggest hoax ever perpetrated on the entire world.  Read about it and watch a video.  

Why then are the Palestinians even recognized as a nation or a people?  For two reasons. One - the world is ignorant about their own history. And two - the world is ignorant about their own history.

I hope that answers the Question… 
Thanks for listening my friend. Now go do the right thing, pray and fight for truth and freedom.
