Israel continually gets away with its brutal, military occupation of Palestine, often by getting the US to intercede for them. A recent event demonstrates this. The release of a 74 page UN report, “Israeli Practices Toward the Palestinian People and the Question of Apartheid” concludes that Israel is guilty of policies that constitute apartheid and, therefore, crimes against humanity. Most of the world understands this. US Ambassor Nikki Haley quickly condemned the report and the UN was forced to remove it, two days after it was released. In this fascinating report, Craig Hanson looks under the covers as to what is going on. In his analysis, Craig references an article by Richard Falk, “Richard Falk: Anger at my Israel ‘apartheid’ report puts free speech at risk,” one of the authors of the well researched report. Curiously, Israel makes no mention that Richard Falk is Jewish. Falk is an international law and international relations scholar who taught at Princeton University for 40 years. In 2008 he was also appointed by the UN to serve a six-year term as the Special Rapporteur on Palestinian human rights. In Part II, Craig will analyze the contents of the report in depth in “The Israeli Emperor Has No Clothes-Part II – Exposing The Facts.” (29 mins.)
