UN designates Israel as TERROR STATE that murders children

It is official: The United Nations (UN) has added Israel to its official “blacklist” of countries that hurt children in conflict zones due to the Benjamin Netanyahu regime’s actions in the Gaza Strip.

Israel now finds itself alongside terrorist-designated entities like ISIS, Al-Qaeda and Boko Haram as far as the UN is concerned, prompting Netanyahu to fume and rage against the UN for siding with supporters of Hamas.

With the official Palestinian children death toll in Gaza now exceeding 15,500, the UN considers Israel to be a terrorist threat. The new UN designation was confirmed by Israeli Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan, who says he received official notification from UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.

“This is simply outrageous and wrong,” Erdan wrote in the caption to a video of him speaking via telephone in condemnation of the UN move.

“I responded to the shameful decision and said that our army is the most moral in the world. The only one being blacklisted is the Secretary-General who incentivizes and encourages terrorism and is motivated by hatred towards Israel.”

Responding to Erdan’s statements later that same day, Guterres spokesman Stephane Dujarric said a UN official called the Israeli envoy as “a courtesy afforded to countries that are newly listed on the annexe” of the annual “Children in Armed Conflict” report.

“It is done to give those countries a heads up and avoid leaks,” Dujarric told the press, adding that the official report will be presented to the UN Security Council on June 14, followed by its publishing a few days after that.

Dujarric would go on in a statement to criticize Erdan for recording and leaking the news via social media – see below – which has apparently never been done by a country that is added to the UN blacklist.

“Ambassador Erdan’s video recording of that phone call, and the partial release of that recording on Twitter, is shocking and unacceptable – and frankly something I’ve never seen in my 24 years serving this organization.”

Israel could face arms sales restrictions

The Palestinian Authority is thrilled by the addition of Israel to the UN’s blacklist for human rights abuses as the Jewish state belongs on “a list of parties engaging in violations against children.” This includes maiming, sexually violating and killing children at schools and hospitals.

Some Palestinian rights advocates were previously upset that Israel was not on the list alongside the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Somalia, Syria, Haiti and Russia.

Countries that find themselves on the UN blacklist could face arms sales restrictions in addition to the public shame of being found on the blacklist in the first place.

“Now, faced with the catastrophe in Gaza that the world sees with its naked eyes with the genocide that specifically targets children and women, the UN secretary general no longer has excuses not to place Israel on the blacklist,” commented senior Palestinian official Riad Malki, who welcomed the decision.

Since October 7, more than 36,700 Palestinians, many of them women and children, are dead as a result of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
