UN Response to US Attack on Syria: Noble Words, Empty Deeds

NOVANEWS By Alex GORKA | Strategic Culture Foundation The refusal of the United Nations to qualify the recent US airstrike against Syria as an act of aggression makes the Organization irrelevant – something Russia has been trying to prevent. It has become vulnerable to scathing criticism after demonstrating its impotence and inability to act. The continued paralysis is an eloquent example of the UN’s disengagement and lack of political will to fulfill its duty. The Organization’s image has suffered great damage. It still has a chance to rectify it by launching an investigation into what really happened in Syria. Article One of the UN Charter states that one of the purposes is «To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the pr...

Russian ambassador to UN asks US counterpart to avoid insulting Russia

NOVANEWS TASS Russian Deputy Ambassador to the UN, Vladimir Safronkov, on Friday urged U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley to refrain from insulting Russia and to put collective work at the Security Council on a healthy basis. “I’d like to ask the speakers here – the U.S. representative and members of other delegations – to refrain from insulting my country,” Safronkov said at an emergency meeting of the Security Council. “No one has the moral right to do it. We never allow ourselves to do such things.” As the U.S. Ambassador and current President of the UN Security Council, Haley “has a real chance to put collective work at the Council on a healthy footing but this will never happen if the viewpoint of just one nation is passed off for absolute truth.” Nikki Haley alleged in her speech at th...

Russia submits resolution to UN on chemical weapons attack in Syria

NOVANEWS By Adam Garrie | The Duran Russia has tabled a UN Security Council resolution calling for a through investigation of the chemical weapons incident in Idlib Governorate. Vladimir Safronkov, Russia’s acting Ambassador to the UN who has stepped in to fill the position of the late Vitaly Churkin has said, “… we submitted our short draft resolution, drawn up in a business manner and aimed at conducting a true investigation rather than to appoint the guilty ones until the facts are established”. The Russian draft resolution proposes to, “… fully investigate the reports about the incident on the ground under the mandatory condition that the list of investigators will be submitted to the UN for approval and will be geographically balanced as well” This is in sharp contrast to the US-UK...

Nazi Practices Towards the Palestinian People and the Question of Apartheid

NOVANEWS Palestine Media Digest March 21st 2017 In the last Digest (March 17th) a link was given to the UN publication "Israel Practices Towards the Palestinian People and the Question of Apartheid". This was an important, fearless and fact-based 74-page report by the UN agency Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia, based in Beirut. It was highly critical of the state of Israel and therefore doomed to a short life. Nobody realised just how short that life would be, and it was disgracefully withdrawn after less than three days and there is now no trace of it on any UN website. Israel of course had rejected it out of hand, but its fate was sealed when Israel's guardian USA spoke out: “That such anti-Israel propaganda w...

Haley Calls United Nations Human Rights Council ‘So Corrupt’

NOVANEWS Nikki Haley Calls United Nations Human Rights Council ‘So Corrupt’ By SOMINI SENGUPTA Nikki R. Haley, the United States ambassador, speaking at the United Nations on Wednesday.CreditBebeto Matthews/Associated Press UNITED NATIONS — The American envoy to the United Nations, Nikki R. Haley, described the United States on Wednesday as the “moral conscience” of the world, and she dismissed the United Nations Human Rights Council as “so corrupt” without offering evidence. Ms. Haley said the United States would never close its doors to foreigners who flee persecution, even as she defended the Trump administration’s travel ban, which closed the door to refugees from six war-torn, mainly Muslim nations. She insisted that American taxpayers should get value for the money they...

Out in the Open: Jewish Power Rears Ugly Head in Censoring of UN Report

NOVANEWS By Richard Edmondson | Fig Trees and Vineyards Recent developments at the United Nations–(with regard to the censoring of a report on Israeli apartheid and the resignation of a high-ranking UN official who had been ordered to repudiate it)–should be viewed in the context of remarks made earlier this month by Alan Dershowitz. Speaking at an anti-BDS conference in Los Angeles, the former Harvard Law School professor and now CNN contributor offered the following advice to his fellow Jews: People say Jews are too powerful, we’re too strong, we’re too rich. We control the media. We have too much this. We have too much that. And we often apologetically deny our strength and our power. Don’t do that. Don’t do that. We have earned the right to influence public debate. As you can te...

UN Rejects Saudi Zio-Wahhabi Call to Oversee Yemeni port

NOVANEWS The United Nations has rejected a call by Saudi Zio-Wahhabi family and its Zionist allies to supervise a Houthi-held Yemeni port, where tens of refugees were killed last week in an aerial attack blamed on Riyadh. The Saudi Zio-Wahhabi call came after more than 40 people lost their lives and dozens of others were injured in an apparent Saudi Zio-Wahhabi airstrike that hit a boat carrying Somali refugees near Bab al-Mandeb Strait on Friday. Saudi Zio-Wahhabi family and its Zionist allies have denied being behind the air raid despite witness accounts citing an Apache helicopter – which is only used by Saudi Zio-Wahhabi family in the war on Yemen – to have attacked the vessel. Reacting to the call on Monday, UN spokesman Farhan Haq said the warring sides in Yemen are responsib...
