Barak at UN: Assad killed 2000, lost legitimacy

Share:

After Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak met with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on Friday, he told the Press he had discussed “the region.” Inner City Press asked him, “Did you discuss Syria with the Secretary General?”

Barak replied, “I mentioned the fact that we are watching it. We do not intend to be an influence on what happens there… We cannot ignore, what we see there is illegitimate behavior — Assad if using weapons and his armed forces against his own citizens in a way that’s caused the loss of two thousand lives. I believe he has lost his legitimacy.”

Israel, or most Israeli politicians and diplomats, have tried to say little about Syria, thinking that to attack Assad would only help him domestically. But Barak has gone further.

Asked about the Palmer report on the nine Turks killed on last year’s Gaza flotilla, Barak said it is mostly the fault of the IHH, but he hopes something can be agreed between now and August 20.

While Barak did not say it about the Palestinians’ possible moves in September, a long time Permanent Representative gushed to Inner City Press that even with a US veto in the Security Council that could block UN membership, Palestine could ask for statehood, or what could be called statehood, in the General Assembly.

    as if he cares about the lost of innocent lives!

    the dog, i wonder what would he be telling Ban keamon with the palestinian acceptance issue…he has managed to change Obama’s views after his speech in congress…wonder if he will do the same at the UN.

    1. eaArak the traitor to his people did NOT change Obama’s views.  Obama wants Jewish money and a majority vote to win the presdency for a second time in 2012.

        If all the ‘conservative’ twits in the USA have their way, he won’t get a 2nd … and that includes Jewish ones.

        1.  Obama is the worst not only for the Jews but for Arabs in the ME who wish to have a secular democratic state where peple are free , as well as free to worship how they want.

          Look how selective, Obama, has been in his support or even interference (through NATO) for the so-called Aab springs!  You’ll notice he has only expressed support or even initiated military assistance to revolts in countries where the current regime could be toppled and the replacement would even be worse and more tyrannical where an off-shoot of the Muslim Brotherhood could take control: Egypt, Tunisia, Libya.

          WHy has he not supported the revolt against Assad or why has he not supported a Free Lebanon against the Fanatical take over of Lebanon by Hezb’ullah (Iran/Syria)?  Because, though more or less secular Assad/Hezb’ullah perpetuate the radical ideologies of the Muslim Brotherhood already (murder of all Jews World wide, take over of all countries to make a repressive Caliphate. ALso, the Mullahs in IRan also already mimick the radical ideologies of the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt.

  5. Barak is a traitor to his own people.    As far as the Security council verses the General assembly resolutions….”resolutions” by the General Assembly are simply NOT enforceable and are considered suggestions. The author may wish to consult the UN charter.

    Furthermore, even if the Security council passed a resolution it wouldn’t be legal in this case-why?  Because if one does the research from the 1917 Balfour declaration and the 1922 League of Nations and San Remo accords  (signed by almost all nations and Feisal Hussein on behalf of the Arabs) the Jews own, according to international law, all the land from the Jordan river to he Mediterranean sea.

    Actually, most of their homeland is also on their East bank (78% of the Jews homeland)  as well.  But the East bank of ISrael (78%) was given away in a “two-state solution” to create another Arab- Muslim state , this time on Jewish land and this to placate the Saudi Hashemite Hussein family (who was crying because he didn’t receive a kingship/country to rule like his cousin in Iraq).
    The invasion and ocuppation of 1948-1967 by Syria, Egypt and Jordan was not recognized nor legal (that is when they poured even more people into those areas, too).

    ****So, when the UN and its charter was created according to articles 2 and 80 it accepted and held as valid ALL the decrees by the former international body known as the League of Nations.  Therefore, ownership of the territories (Gaza, Judea, Samaria/West Bank) has not changed.
