> The U.N. Genocide Report Against Israel Is an Assault on Critical Thinking

It is indeed. The arguments are so poor and obviously ideological. To give one example, it would necessarily imply that every war is an example of genocide.

Experts aren’t taking it seriously, but then again the UN has not been a serious organisation for as long as I can remember. Some serious scrutiny needs to be made of that organisation.

Genocide is a very particular crime, I’m not sure what the obsession with it is. It’s evident that there are examples of war crimes.
