“The Secretary-General expresses grave concern over reports of air strikes in Syria by the Israeli Air Force,” Ban’s press office said in a statement.
“At this time, the United Nations does not have details of the reported incidents,” it said. “Nor is the United Nations in a position to independently verify what has occurred.”
It added that Ban “calls on all sides to exercise maximum calm and restraint, and to act with a sense of responsibility to prevent an escalation of what is already a devastating and highly dangerous conflict.”
The UN would have grave concern if an arab farted.
The Israeli U.N. Ambassador should get up in the assembly and quite clearly tell Mon-ki Moon to go to hell (and then HE should “exercise maximum calm and restraint”)!
If the syrian government killing over 75,000 of its citizens isn’t considered an escalation, I don’t know what is…. oh wait, I do, any thing Israel does.
Yeah, “grave concerns” – concerns about why there aren’t more Israelis in graves.
Shouldn’t the genocide in Syria constitute reasoning for grave concern? Oh I forgot, they aren’t Jews.
