    The U.N. chief on Tuesday told the Security Council that settlement activities are “an affront to the Palestinian people,” and he called for Israel to freeze them. He also said “it is human nature to react to occupation.”

    Ban spoke out again Wednesday, telling a General Assembly committee that the Palestinians “watch as Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, expand and expand.”

    The U.N. chief, who is in the final year of his term, also said that “you can count on me to speak up” to help achieve an Israeli-Palestinian peace.

    We should ban him and send him to the moon. There are no Settlements there. This just goes to show the eternity of the Torah. Hashem hardened Pharaoh’s heart to act irrationally against the Jews , even at his own peril. The leadership of today’s world is no different . As the world tries to fight the scourge of terrorism , they cannot help but blame the chief targets of Islamic terror, Israel, on the Jews themselves. Incredible.Take your place in bigoted historical contempt for the Jews Mr Moon. We look forward to your disappearance from any position of leadership. Of course the next UN clown may be jut as bad..or worse.

    I lay the fault squarely upon the Israelis. It is the they who have accepted all along the terminology and concept of settlements and occupation, names given by the the deligitamising UN, which resulted in negotiating and giving away our land. It is not too late to take a stand and say enough is enough, there’s no occupation coz it’s all our Gd given inheritance.

    Mon-Ki Moon:

    Your statement legitimizes terror. For that, I wish you to become one of the victims of terror.

    The Palestinian people are owed nothing. The land was never theirs. Israel captured it from Jordan when the Jordanians attacked Israel. Israel has given more rights to Palestinians than any Muslim country ever did. Even the autonomy given to Palestinian police and their “government” is a gracious gift. All Israel has ever received in return is waves of ever increasing terror, bloodshed, and stupid comments like the junk you have spewed since assuming your UN post.

    If you had an ounce of morality in you, you would be all over the savages in the Muslim world for embracing terror, and you would assist Israel in insuring that this barbaric cruelty would result in absolutely nothing.

    Are you that beholden to the liberal hogwash, political correctness, and similar excrement that defines the Obama administration? Such a shame that those with clout behave so foolishly. Can’t wait for you to leave. You are a closet terror lover. Go away.

    UN once has Kurt Waldhein head it, until someone mentioned he was a former SS Nazi.
    UN schools keep missiles stored in them. Peace organization does that?Hillary said well they had no other place..
    UN takes up needed space and we pay taxes to be told these nonsensical things that some want to believe or say they do. Gevalt! makes affordable housing and free up some space for parking. UN is fanning more than putting out flames.
