Zionists making Jewish museum in al-Khalil, snubbing UNESCO

According to Reuters, calling the resolution “another delusional UNESCO decision”, the Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced “a $ 1m cut to Israel’s payments to the UN and said the money would be diverted to establish a Jewish heritage museum” in al-Khalil, where a few hundred Zionists live under heavy military protection in the midst of more than 200,000 Palestinians.

In the UN session, twelve countries voted for the Palestinian request to name al-Khalil a heritage site, three voted against it and six countries abstained.

The site is important to all Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

The Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki hailed the decision in a statement saying, “This vote is a success for the diplomatic battle fought by Palestine on all fronts, in the face of Israeli and American pressure on member states.”

“Despite a frantic Israeli campaign spreading lies and distorting the facts about the Palestinian rights, the world has recognized our right,” to register al-Khalil and the Ibrahimi mosque under Palestinian sovereignty, the statement added.

Zionist regime’s Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman also reacted to the resolution in a Zionist manner and derided the UNESCO calling it “a politically biased, disgraceful and anti-Semitic organization.”

The Zionist regime occupied al-Khalil, along with eastern Quds, the West Bank, and many other Palestinian areas in the 1967 war, and contrary to widespread international criticism, goes on with occupation, mocking the international community.
