Israel responds to UN blacklist of companies in Judea and Samaria

by Jordan Hilger, Worthy News Correspondent

(Worthy News) – The Israeli Ministry of Strategic Affairs and Public Diplomacy responded in February to a UN “blacklist” of Israeli companies highlighted for supposed human rights abuses with an expose detailing the terror-links of the groups that lobbied for the list’s creation.

Notable among the four groups that petitioned the UN to create the blacklist were Addameer and Al-Haq, two Palestinian NGOs, one of which employed the terrorist who engineered the August 2019 murder of Israeli teen Rina Shnerb, and the other of which is currently led by Shawan Jabarin, a man once imprisoned “due to his role in terror activities,” according to the Israeli government report.

“The UNHRC, which consists of tyrannical states and despot regimes, proves once again that it is a rotten institution that makes delusional decisions which have no connection to actual human rights,” Israeli Minister for Strategic Affairs Gilad Erdan said in a statement.

In publishing the list of 112 companies operating in Judea and Samaria, the UN claimed it did not wish to “qualify any company’s activities as illegal” but only to “highlight” activities of “particular concern.”
