Israel UN envoy condemns Gaza probe head

Israel’s Ambassador to the UN Ron Prosor calls an urgent meeting with UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and asks him to denounce the appointment of William Schabas as head of the Gaza probe.

In a blistering critique, Prosor says the choice of a staunch anti-Israel figure is an insult to the intelligence, and reflects the Human Rights Council’s moral bankruptcy. The choice is like asking ISIS to organize the religious tolerance week at the UN, he says.

Prosor says the UNHRC has set a new record for the anti-Israeli incitement which characterizes it.
