World Health Organization lies about Israel on coronavirus and other health issues

"President Trump renewed his criticism of the World Health Organization Thursday for the way the United Nations organization failed to challenge false information China initially provided minimizing the coronavirus outbreak in that country. He should also call out the WHO for its disgraceful role in spreading absurd lies and hatred about U.S. ally Israel for years.

Trump recently suspended U.S. funding of the WHO. America is by far the largest donor to the agency and was scheduled to give it $894 million during the current two-year funding period.

The president said Thursday that "the World Health Organization should be ashamed of themselves because they're like the public relations agency for China." He could have also added that the WHO has operated like a PR and propaganda agency for the enemies of Israel – the only democracy in the Middle East.

A year ago, WHO member countries voted 96 to 11 – with the U.S. in opposition – for an annual resolution blaming Israel for 'health conditions in the occupied Palestinian territory, including east Jerusalem, and in the occupied Syria Golan.'

While one might expect the WHO to be apolitical, it – like nearly every other U.N.-associated organ – is used by Israel's enemies as a platform for viciously attacking the Jewish state.

What may be even more disturbing is that democracies that should know better – including France, Belgium and Sweden – joined in the unjustified condemnation of Israel..."
