Knesset Speaker: UNHCR is Rotten

Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin met José Manuel Barroso, the President of the European Commission, and told him that the United Nations Human Rights Commission is "a rotten organization, both morally and politically." He called on Barroso to side with Israel and withdraw from the UNHCR, following the appointment of its new committee for looking into "the settlements and their ramifications for violation of Palestinian human rights."
