U.N. names 3 commissioners for new probe against Israel

UN je imenovao tri " comisionera" za   novu istragu  protiv Izraela

GENEVA, July 6 - The UN Human Rights Council today began its sixth inquiry into alleged Israeli violations, naming three female jurists: Christine Chanet of France, Unity Dow of Botswana and Asma Jahangir of Pakistan (photos, left to right).

UN council za ljudska prava je počeo šestru istragu o  navodnom nasilju u Izraelu. Imenovane su tri pravnice Christinne Chanet iz Francuske, Unity Down iz Bitswane i Asma Jahangir iz Pakistana.

Trebalo bi se istražiti implikacije izraelskog naseljavanja na civilna,politička, ekonomska, socijalna i kulturna prava Palestinskog naroda na okupiranom palestinskim teritoriju, uključujući istočni Jeruzalem, izjavila je UNHRC predsjednica Laura Dupry Lasserre.

Grupe za ljudska prava u "UN Watch" su izrazile zabrinutost da u istrazi nema ravnoteže, i nema govora o nasilju od palestinske strane.
