In reply to the discussion: Lessons on hypocrisy from Syria [View all]shira
(30,109 posts)30. You didn't count many resolutions vs Syria. There've only been a few in the past 2 years....
There have been dozens against Israel.
I don't see how anyone like yourself, who says they stand for universal human rights everywhere, can justify that.
And only the deliberately blind would deny there's been 100x more world coverage about Israel's perceived violations against Palestinians than Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan, or Syria's violations.
You're not fooling anyone with your bullshit games here.
