The United States has formally notified the UN’s world heritage body UNESCO that it is withdrawing its membership of the organisation, citing “continuing anti-Israel bias” and “mounting arrears”, according to the Guardian.
Unesco’s director general, Irina Bokova, said she had received formal notification of withdrawal from the US secretary of state, Rex Tillerson.
The US state department said the decision also reflects US concerns with mounting arrears and the need for fundamental reform at the organisation.
UNESCO has drawn the ire of Israel and the Trump administration for a series of decisions, including the listing of Hebron, a city in the southern part of the occupied Palestinian territories, as a Palestinian world heritage site.
Israel has said it will join the US in pulling out of the UNESCO, praising the US decision as “brave and moral”.
Good riddance to Israel and the US, both countries are ultimately responsible for the obliteration of many world heritage sites , directly and via proxy terrorism.
Without a strong Israel, Europe will be in a difficult position.
U must be a comedian
That makes no sense whatsoever. The Israeli-Arab conflict has had a cover sideshow playing out in Europe for many decades – a nexus of Israeli and Palestinian violence and counter-violence transported into the European capitals.
Without Israel, Wahhabis would have taken Levant and would have sent millions of Wahhabis into Europe with a great ease.
You do realize ‘Wahhabis’ are a product of Saudi Arabian education system, and their internationally exported mosques and madrases. That would be the same Saudi Arabia that is US regional ally, and is also ever increasingly politically close to Israel in an anti-Iranian coalition. The salafist terrorists in Syria and Iraq – both secular Arab republics – are recruited and funded by the fundamentalist Sunni Gulf States, allies of the US, the latter being of course Israel’s core support in the region. In factual reality, Israel has done nothing but support the salafists in Syria – systematically aiding the Al Nusra militants based on Golan Heights, with high-end public-cost military treatment inside Israel itself and artillery and warplane cover against the SAA attempts to dislodge the terrorists. So, no dice on those fraudulent claims.
Hamas is Wahhabi and is against Israel. Al-Qaeda is Wahhabi and still against Israel. You are the fradulent one.
Once again, Israel provides medical aid and military protection to Al Qeada/ Al Nusra militants inside of Syrian territory, based below the Golan Heights. Incidentally, you do realize that the Levant you referred to earlier is on the western side of Israel, where Israel assists the salafist militants inside Syria, whereas the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood derived Palestinian Hamas faction are in the Gaza Strip, on the far north east side of Israel and adjacent to the Egyptian Sinai…
Israel has helped Egypt fight MB and ISIS. Your comment is false.
However, yet again, you failed to even remotely address Israeli aid – medical treatment and military air and artillery cover – to Al Nusra militants tucked up securely under the IDF umbrella at western base of Golan Heights…
And ISIS apologised to the Israelis after shooting at them accidentally in the dark. Apologised!!!
The only thing to parrot is the supposed “aid”. Nothing else. Let me tell you something. ISIS was created by former elements of the Saddamist regime, the most anti-Israel regime in the ME.
Not the only thing, the bombings of Syrian army and Israeli munitions photographed by Syrian army hidden in overrun terror bases, what about that?
Israel and Syria have decades of enmity towards each other.
There was no ISIS before the murican invasion…
And suddenly ISIS came out of nothing right?
Ken O’Keefe: ISIS = Israeli Intelligence Security Service
Partial transcript of the video – Ken O’keef speaking
If you really want to know what is happening with the Middle Eastern policy you must read Oded Yinon’s Strategy for Israel in the 1980’s”. In that document, which is pretty much being played out to a T right now and has been for many years. There were serious objectives for Israel and Israel’s main objectives were to expand and grow in line with the Greater-Israel project and in order for it to do that there would need to be an excuse to justify the expansion of Israel and in order to do that we would have to sow the seeds of sectarian hatred and violence in the region. The number one target of this plan was Iraq. We have achieved that, that is not a failure, that is actually a success. Iraq is a failed state, it is an absolute basket case, sectarian hatred is absolutely insane. It is all part of the plan to break up Iraq into three different states. When we look at Syria, we also find that the goal is once again the same thing: sow the seeds of sectarian hatred and basically turn that nation into a basket case. This is happening according to plan as well. ISIS could stand for the Israeli Secret Intelligence Service. Many people are seeing big benefits to the “State of Israel”, the so-called “Jewish State of Israel” by the break up and the balkanization of the surrounding states,Why has ISIS or Al-Nusra -Front or Al-Quaeda not once have they eve attacked Israel? In fact, ISIS militants are getting medical attention in the Golan Heights and in Israel itself. What does that tell you?” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReOSGFyGWJI
Imam gave a speech in 2015
When ISIS attacks non-Muslims, they immediately blame Islam for it. I have no doubt that ISIS is motivated by an agenda run by the enemies of Islam – by the enemies of Islam. And I want to bring this to your attention: ISIS has targeted people:
• in Lebanon, • in Syria, • in Iraq, • in Kuwait, • in Saudi Arabia, • in Pakistan, • in Afghanistan, • in Yemen, • in Algeria.
The only place – the only place that has been completely safe and has never been threatened by ISIS nor has it been targeted is Israel. What does that tell you? It speaks out, it speaks volumes, that ISIS somehow is connected to Israel. And ISIS is playing the role of the arm of the Zionist in the Muslim world to kill more Muslims and non-Muslims so it can defame the name of Islam. So people can blame Islam for its atrocities so people will be alienated from this religion, a peaceful religion, our religion. Otherwise, who is benefiting from these atrocities? Are Muslims benefiting? When they are jeopardizing the fate of 6 millions in the United States. 20 million Muslims live in Europe. Their fate, their well being, their livelihood is being jeopardized by ISIS. Has Islam benefited? No! The number 1 beneficiary of all these atrocities – I tell you – is the Zionist. It is the Zionist regime. And unfortunately this is the fact that we need … we have not been able to make people understand. This is the fact that we need to tell the world that ISIS – no matter how they look, with long beards and robes, and Islamic slogans, shouting “Allah- Wa-Akbar” after every atrocity, after every crime they commit, that does not mean they are Muslims at all. These are the enemies of Islam and the enemies of the Muslim Umma who are bent on destroying the reputation of Islam.

They have also targeted Israel but a few times because Israel is well defended. Instead of using conspiracy theories you can see the truth. The truth is that Assad has killed 100 times more Syrians than Israel!
When they targeted “Israel” how many Jews did they kill?
They can find them here if ISIS wants to get Jews, right?
Can’t they find them here? US 6,000,000 France 460,000 Canada 388,000 Britain 300,000 Russia 180,000 Germany 117,000 Australia 113,000 Brazil 94,000 South Africa 70,000 Belgium 30,000 Italy 27,000 Switzerland 19,000 Sweden 15,000 Turkey 15,000 Spain 12,000 Iran 9,000 Azerbaijan 8,000 Venezuela 8,000 India 5,000 Morocco 2,500 Tunisia 1,000

“ISIS fanatics issue chilling call to ‘terrorise’ Jewish people in the West”
Tell me why they NEVER kill Jews. The Muslim and the Christian lives are never spared but that of the Jew is. Why has ISIS NEVER killed Jews? Therefore, you came up with a threat to Jews because you found no Jews that ISIS murdered, right?
https://i.imgur.com/7XHW9Mf.png
You are missing the point and you don’t see the truth.
You are peddling lies with nothing to back it up!
ISIS attacked and killed thousands of Muslims. ISIS attacked and killed thousands of Christians. ISIS never attacked Jews – not even once! Is 2 + 2 still = 4?
What rubbish. ISIS are the consequence of NATO and Gulf State policy of indiscriminate weaponizing of the fundamentalist terrorists within Syria. Large numbers of the Syrian ‘opposition’ defected en masse to ISIS, with their NATO and Gulf training and weaponry. Initially ISIS were not overtly militarily successful – until they opted to invade into Iraq to seize heavy weaponry – and why were they able to do that? Because they also had a raft Iraqi ex military officers on-board – from ranks of those Baathist Iraqi officers summarily mass dismissed by US in 2003.
Nice story, I have heard it a hundred times. And I don’t support NATO or Gulf States.
Alas, ignore reality at your own peril.
The reality is that I don’t support NATO or Gulf States.
That is a terrible attempt at diversion. What has Egypt got to do with the topic at hand? You singularly and repeatedly fail to address Israeli support and aid for Al Nusra inside Syria at base og Golan Heights. The Israeli medical support and hospital treatment for militants from Syria so infuriated the Israeli Druze near the Golan, whose Syrian relatives were subject to Al Nusra attacks, that they blocked an Israeli ambulance loaded with militants – those Druze Israeli citizens were later prosecuted by Israeli state and given heavy jail sentences…what does that tell you?
Israel never helped Al-Nusra, they just went into the hospital and got kicked out of Israel afterwards.
Ah, and here we have a begrudging admission, a gritted teeth moment of accepting the realities of the conflict, that Israel treats -and by the simplest definition – aids and protects the Al Nusra militants based on Golan border. To the extant of literally prosecuting actual Israeli Druze citizens that hindered the project.
Any website that proves the prosecution of Druzes?
Seriously – your laziness is such that expect me to do most basic research for you? Alas, see the following links, first three are proof of Israeli aid to Al Nusra militants at base of Golan Heights, and last link is proof of the prosecution of Israeli Druze citizens, who intervened against IDF transports of militants to Israeli hospitals, from Israeli news-site Haaretz:

Have you ever seen these groups attack Israel?
I have seen Israel bomb the Syrian Arab Army, who is fighting terrorists, Israel prefers terror to a secular independent Arab state on its border, they have declared this repeatedly, so what is your point?
They don’t attack Israel because they are cowards. Only Hamas had the guts to attack Israel and Hamas is Iran-friendly. Secular dictatorships doesn’t mean that they are good.
Hamas is an Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood offshoot, and in last decade they grew much closer to Qatar (who are Muslim Brotherhood allies and bankrolled the recent and failed Morsi Muslim Brotherhood regime in Cairo). With onset of the Syrian war, Hamas actually severed their ties with both Syria and Iran. As Hamas officially moved their headquarters to Qatar in 2011, and then officially announced their position in alignment with Qatar, in supporting the fundamentalist Sunni opposition, against both the secular Assad leadership and its Iranian backing. Of note – much of Syria’s armed opposition was always based in the Syrian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, who are essentially rural and Sunni fundamentalist based, and have decades of long standing conflict with the secular Syrian state.
I have already known that.
m8 take a look what Saudis were saying about Hamas when ‘protective edge’ operation was lead.
That speaks for itself.
Hamas is Qatari.
Saudis and Israel are children from the same mother.
Without Israel there would be no support for wahhabis, they would n’t even exist. Mark Al-Assad words: “terrorists are as strong as the states that support them, without external support the war would be finished in one month”
Israel has great enmity with Wahhabis and no dpilomatic relations.
Israel does has have diplomatic relations with Saudi and gulf petrol-monarchies, no relations with Iran and Syria. Accuses Iran of “meddling” in Syria, when it is the USrahell who is trying to overthrow militarily legitimate governments.
Israel doesn’t have good relations with petro-monarchies. Only US has and that’s why I believe that Israel should leave US and go with Russia.
Isis fighters ‘attacked Israel Defense Forces unit, then apologised’ claims former commander
Moshe Ya’alon reportedly referred to a clash with Isis-linked group last November
Chloe Farand Tuesday 25 April 2017
The Independent
Isis-affiliated fighters “apologised” after launching an attack on Israeli soldiers, the country’s former defence minister has claimed.
Moshe Ya’alon was reportedly referring to an incident when a group linked to Isis in the Syrian Golan Heights exchanged fire with Israeli forces last November.
The area is a rocky plateau in southwestern Syria, which was partly seized by Israel during the Six-Day War of 1967 and later annexed in a move never recognised by the international community.
“There was one case recently where Daesh [Isis] opened fire and apologised,” Mr Ya’alon said speaking at an event in the northern city of Alufa, during which he was was being interviewed about Israel’s policy on Syria.
After a short gun battle, the Israeli military attacked Syrian jihadist group Khalid ibn al-Walid with airstrikes and tank fire, killing four of them, The Times of Israel reports.
This was the first direct clash between Israeli forces and Isis militants after the terror group opened fire on a military patrol on the Israeli side, a military spokesman said at the time.
Khalid ibn al-Walid, which affiliated itself with Isis in May 2016, seized territory including a large town and several villages on the Syrian border with Israel in a surprise attack on moderate rebel forces in February this year.
A spokesperson for Mr Ya’alon refused to elaborate on how Isis expressed its apology to Israel after the attack and the Israel Defense Forces also refused to comment.
According to the first Western journalists, who have entered Isis’ territories and survived, Israel is the only country in the world the Islamic group fears because it believes its army is too strong to face.
Under Israeli law, communication with the group is illegal because it constitutes contact with an enemy agent.
Mr Ya’alon is the former chief of staff of the Israel Defense Forces and served as Defence Minister from 2013 until his resignation in May 2016.
During the interview, he said Israel carried out strikes against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s forces in retaliation when the Golan Heights was attacked.
Israel has adopted a largely non-interventionist position regarding the complicated conflict on its doorstep, although it has retaliated on occasions when conflict has spilled over into territory it controls.

Moshe Ya’alon’s office refuses to elaborate after alluding to contact with terror group
By JUDAH ARI GROSS Times of Israel 24 April 2017
Former defense minister Moshe Ya’alon on Saturday said the Islamic State terrorist group in the Syrian Golan Heights “apologized” for attacking an Israeli unit.
“There was one case recently where Daesh opened fire and apologized,” Ya’alon said, using the terror group’s Arabic nickname.
This was an apparent reference to a clash that took place near the Syrian border last November, in which IDF troops exchanged fire with members of the Islamic State affiliate. After a brief gun battle, the Israeli military attacked the terrorist group with airstrikes and tank fire, killing four of them.
Israel and much of the Western world considers the Islamic State affiliate in the Syrian Golan Heights, known as the Khalid ibn al-Walid Army, to be a terrorist group. Communication with them is technically illegal under Israeli law, constituting contact with an enemy agent.
Ya’alon was speaking at an event in the northern city of Afula. He was interviewed on stage by Eli Levi, a Channel 10 news correspondent.
His comment about the Islamic State’s apology was made as part of a broader point about Israel’s policy for Syria, which is largely non-interventionist.
Ya’alon was explaining that Israel carries out strikes against Syrian President Bashar Assad’s forces in retaliation when spillover fire hits the Israeli Golan Heights.
Ya’alon’s officer refused to elaborate on how exactly the Islamic State expressed its apology to Israel after the attack. The IDF also declined to comment.
Syrian officials have accused Israel of directly aiding the Islamic State and other rebel groups, a claim Jerusalem vociferously denies.

ISIS are cowards.
Would have – could have – should have – have no value.
All World and Middle East conflicts and terrorism happened after 1948, i.e. after the arrival of European Jews to Arab Palestine to colonize it.
There were:
• no radical Islam • no ISIS • no Al Qaeda • no Taliban • no El Shabab • no Hezbullah • no Hamas
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_terrorist_incidents
There were pogroms agaist Jews before the creation of the so called “Israel”.
Why do you keep saying “Jews”? Pogroms were against the Ashkenazi of Europe but not against African or Arab Jews, right?
https://i.imgur.com/4k6tJcL.png
Pogroms in Libya and Iraq.
The only problem without Israel would be the long lines of Jew refugees wanting to settle where I live :)
Better would be no jew refugees and no ISrael, so these rats would just sink in the Mediterranean.
True colors are showing.
As their proxies fail the mafia bosses are obliged to grab their own guns.
Both countries?
Its one country with Tel Aviv as capital :)
UNESCO – culture, human rights, science, eradication of poverty. All things lacking from President Netanyahu and his Foreign Minister, Trump. Only natural that they should withdraw!
Trump is a good goy!
Hillary is the one that is being funded by Saudi-Qatar-Kuwait-Bahrain-UAE.
Trump is a non-entity. stop cheering on him, his administration is handled by Israel and the generals.
I can’t believe trump supporters are celebrating and saying MAGA and etc. More Sellouts to the Zionist State.
I think his base is fracturing, just read the Breitbart comments section. I voted for him, but his tantrum directed towards Shayrat airbase was the last straw for me.
Yeah, Trump is a complete knob-end but he is a blessing in disguise. He stopped the 100% bought-and-paid-for Zio asset Hillary from getting in to the WH, and his absurd antics will now drive a wedge between a failing Imperial Murica and the rest of the world, alienating many of its its “allies’ AKA vassals in the process.
Now we just need to keep working towards killing the petro-dollar…
Killary is not “Zionist”. Killary supports the states of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and UAE which are the sponsors of Wahhabi terrorism and want the abolition of borders and nation-states.
Killary is most definately a Zio minion. She encourages Wahabbis only as part of the Yinon plan to weaken the Arab by encouraging them to fight against each other. Taking down governments that oppose US dominance is only one small part of the overall plan.
Egypt was a US-friendly country and still Mubarak was overthrown.
What is your freaking point, CIA troll?
I don’t like CIA.
Looks very much like you do, CIA has a psyop in favor of Israel, whom you like.
And your point is?
The only blessing is that the eastern powers bought more time with Trump being elected. Now Russia and other eastern countries will not be roll over targets in the eventual event of war. In fact trump is the worst thing for the current American empire. Hillary would have already ignited the fuse to WW3 and that would be Americas best chances, since its all we know, because were at the best position to pull some geopolitical stunt that could sustain the shitty system for another decade or so. Either way billions will lose their lives and we might not make it as a civilization, just the timing has changed a bit and other nations got more time to prepare.
The petro- dollar is on its last throes, nobody can save it, nor sink it before its natural death. Trump is a non-entity, Zionists and generals control his administration, he cannot even control his wife.
Yes, unfortunate his foreign policy decisions especially with Russia. Still, he is better than Hillary. Things can always be worse.
Truly, the US serves as the greatest goyim.
And???? Just remove their sites from the heritage list and let the real world move on.
israhell and united snakes are collapsing … time to rot in their own hell
The US has stopped funding UNESCO in 2011, Israel has never paid a damn dime to the UN or any of it’s programs. They both are known for looting and destroying UNESCO and World Heritage sites , can see why they don’t want to be a part, since they don’t want to be seen as hypocritical in the eyes of the world. Israel is mad because of Hebron and Jerusalem and then the US is mad is because their museums were caught in antiquity scandals recently with artifacts from Iraq and Syria.
Then both these groups should pull out of the UN world body and it can be moved out of the US , if they don’t want it in Europe ,they can move it to Canada sure they will help out since they have done that in the past.
Listing of Hebron as World Heritage site – so now it cannot be bulldozed! Ah the tragedy of it! How can this be allowed?
Tel Aviv on the other hand is not so protected, and will be scraped clean and returned to its original condition from before the filthy pus-filled sore was erected.
bleah xD
Jews conquered the US from within. By 1914 the Ashkenazi-Jews are gained full control over the US Financial and Media institutions. http://realjewnews.com/
How are they Jews if they are promoting atheism?
https://i.imgur.com/tw6DfWk.png
Even though their DNA has no trace of Middle Eastern ancestry, somehow they are so deluded that they believe to be Israelite.
Ancient Israelites were whites.
https://i.imgur.com/SGkedUm.png
Of course, you have no proof for that stupid remark, right? But DNA does not look at skin color, does it? Therefore, you are saying the Ashkenazi and the Israelite both look European? How then did the African Jews and Arab Jews look very different from the European Jew?
I have talked about Israelites not about Jewish religion.
https://i.imgur.com/OeMhkmr.png
Why does the African Jew look African and the European Jew European and the Arab Jew Arab?
Because the Jewish religion spread.
Yes, like Christianity and Islam spread – and that is exactly how the white man known as the Ashkenazi became a Jew – just like the German Christian became a Christian. Is there a difference?
Askhenazis are from the Jewish migrants which left Jerusalem when Romans destroyed it. Then they moved into Scythian lands.
https://i.imgur.com/3bAoKIl.png
These are Ashkenazi women. Who can mistake them for Middle Eastern? The only time the Middle East had white Europeans like these women was when they either came as tourists or colonial settlers. The Ashkenazi in Palestine – 100% of European origin – is a colonial settler like the French in Algeria and the British in Kenya.
Don’t be repetitive or maybe you are a troll.
https://i.imgur.com/nFpWNN6.jpg
I am Middle Eastern and when I look at the Ashkenazi is exactly as the Kenyans looked at the British – i.e aliens to the region. The Ashkenazi arrived on Arab land pretending to be “returning”? How can the white man “return” to Palestine? These are Palestinians. Do they look European?
Ancient Israelites were white. Look at ancient Egyptian monuments.
https://i.imgur.com/jgfKNuC.png
Stop the trolling please.
Therefore, you have no answer? I will tell what the answer is: d)
https://i.imgur.com/6q4UVjU.png
Do you see where the “Ashkenazi DNA” is located? It is not in the Middle East, is it? Where is it? Poland, Hungary, Austria, Slovakia, Czech Republican, right? The Ashkenazi does in fact have ZERO % Middle East DNA, right? What happened to it? Did it just evaporate?
You confuse nation with race, troll.
Does the Ashkenazi claim to be descended from Abraham, Isaac, Jacob?
I am not Ashkenazi, I don’t know. Abraham was a Vedic prophet.
What is the reason that the Ashkenazi was given Palestine to erect his state and not Poland, Hungary, Ukraine where his ancestry is from? https://i.imgur.com/7EFzMDf.png
And what Arabs are they doing to Palestine? They should go back to the desert according to your opinion.
Are you saying that when the Israelite men left for Europe abandoning women and children and started to produce HYBRIDS in Europe with European women that that land remained vacant? What became of the abandoned Israelite women and children? Are you saying the “Arabs” came to that land only after the HYBRIDS began to arrive from Europe?
Hybrids? Hebrews and Arabs have come from somewhere east of Mesopotamia. Probably in modern day Pakistan. Hebrews went to the Middle East and probably mixed with the white Middle Easterners while Arabs went to the peninsula and mixed with the brown Kushites. This has happened over 5000 years ago. When Assyrians conquered Israel many lost tribes were dispersed across the world. The 2 tribes that left were the Judeans and the one I can’t remember. When the Romans conquered Jerusalem then the remaining Judeans went into Europe, some into England and some into Eastern Europe and they became the Ashkenazi Jews. And in 1948, they established the state of Israel. That’s what I believe.
https://i.imgur.com/VL1lk6p.png Look at Alan Dershowitz’s DNA results. 1) Europe is highlighted to trace his 99.9% European ancestry. 2) Africa is highlighted because he has 0.1% African ancestry. 3) Asia is highlighted because he has 0.1% Asian ancestry. 4) The Middle East is totally left blank because they found no trace of Middle East ancestry – not even 0.1% – nothing – zilch!
Stop wasting my time with utter nonsense. No interest to have exchanges with you. Goodbye!
