Israel's Permanent Representative to UN accuses Security Council of madness

Israel's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ron Prosor, suspects the members of the UN Security Council of insanity and said that they misconstrue the causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

"Month after month, individuals in this Chamber argue that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a territorial dispute that can be resolved by addressing the quote-unquote root causes," TASS cited him.

He was extremely dissatisfied with the performance of UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, who completely focused on the Palestinian-Israeli settlement. "This debate is called the Situation in the Middle East, but listening to today’s briefing, one would think that the only thing going on in the Middle East is the Israeli-Palestinian conflict," Prosor said.The world’s unrelenting focus on this conflict is "an injustice to the tens of millions of victims of tyranny and terrorism in the Middle East." "One has to wonder why the Palestinians deserve more time and attention than the Yemenis, the Syrians and the Libyans put together," he noted.
