Meretz head says Israel shouldn’t have cold-shouldered UN panel

Meretz chair Zahava Gal-on says Israel was wrong to boycott the UN’s commission. “When a team doesn’t show up for the match, the referee calls it a technical,” she says.

Israel missed an opportunity to use the commission as an arena to influence global public opinion, and the commission’s findings should raise a red flag,” says Gal-on.
