Malheureusement ce genre d'événéments de diabolisation d'Israël sont monnaie courante en Europe, un vrai sport. L'Université de Heidelberg recensait pour 2008 pas moins de 39 conflits majeurs dans le monde. Mais les autres conflits, certains bien plus meurtriers et destructeurs, ne semblent pas retenir l'attention des médias, du monde politique et des ONG européens, peut-être tout simplement parce qu'ils n'opposent pas le seul état juif à d'autres états. UN Watch et Fox News ont dénoncé avec succès cette nouvelle fantaisie européenne.
Francesca Marotta Head UN Staffer for Goldstone Report Was to Headline Anti-Israel Event in Lausanne (UN Watch)
GENEVA - FOX News has revealed that following a UN Watch protest, the United Nations chief of staff for the Goldstone Report canceled her scheduled keynote address for an anti-Israel event held last Saturday in Lausanne, Switzerland. (See full FOX News report below.)
Francesca Marotta, Head of the Secretariat of the UN Fact Finding Mission on the Gaza Conflict, was to headline an event lobbying for "the Russell Tribunal on Palestine," [Un zététicien pour juger les 'crimes' d'Israël au 'pseudo tribunal Russell'] a one-sided political exercise with a foregone conclusion. The Swiss gathering was sponsored by “Collectif Urgence Palestine,” a group that was recently condemned by a United Nations expert panel for having organized an “apparently anti-Semitic” demonstration last year with stone-throwing and verbal threats against members of the Geneva Jewish community.
UN Watch, which holds Special Consultative Status with the United Nations, immediately filed a protest with Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, urging him to enforce the UN Charter’s Article 100 requirement that his staff remain neutral, professional, and above political partisanship.

UN Watch distributed the protest worldwide to 1,000 journalists, 18,000 UN Watch subscribers — a group that includes diplomats, parliamentarians and other opinion-makers — as well as 5,500 registered Facebook fans of UN Watch. As a result, now confirmed by the FOX News report below, Ms. Marotta canceled her appearance — even though she was already advertised as headlining the event on numerous websites. (See here, here, here, and here.)
UN Watch will be writing to thank Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon for upholding the UN Charter.
