General Assembly,
Guided by the purposes and principles of the
Charter of the United Nations and
reaffirming its role under the Charter, including on questions related to international peace and security,
Reiterating its strong condemnation of terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, committed by whomever, wherever and for whatever purposes, as it constitutes one of the most serious threats to international peace and security,

General Assembly resolution 49/60 of 9 December 1994, the Declaration to Supplement the 1994 Declaration on Measures to Eliminate International Terrorism, contained in the annex to
General Assembly resolution 51/210 of 17 December 1996, and the 2005 World Summit Outcome, in particular its section on terrorism,
Recalling all
General Assembley resolutions on measures to eliminate international terrorism, including resolution 46/51 of 9 December 1991, and
Security Council resolutions on threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts, as well as relevant resolutions of the General Assembly on the protection of
human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism,
Recalling also that at the 2005 World Summit Outcome world leaders rededicated themselves to support all efforts to uphold the sovereign equality of all States, respect their territorial integrity and political independence, to refrain in our international relations from the threat or use of force in any manner inconsistent with the purposes and principles of the United Nations, to uphold resolution of disputes by peaceful means and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, the right to self-determination of peoples which remain under colonial domination or foreign occupation, non-interference in the internal affairs of States, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, respect for the equal rights of all without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion, international cooperation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural or humanitarian character and the fulfillment in good faith of the obligations assumed in accordance with the Charter,

Reaffirming that acts, methods and practices of terrorism in all its forms and manifestations are activities aimed at the destruction of human rights, fundamental freedoms and democracy, threatening territorial integrity, security of States and destabilizing legitimately constituted Governments, and that the international community should take the necessary steps to enhance cooperation to prevent and combat terrorism,

It's one sided, the same as the loon site. but, we've already crossed that bridge in this thread. Maybe have bear catch ya up.
The loonwatch website monitors neoconservative Islamaphobic websites like theReligionOfPeace.com and JihadWatch. I referenced them, because they already did the research which proves that these neoconservative Islamaphobic websites embraced by Colpy and daSleeper are pure trash. Unlike the Islamaphobic websites which pull numbers out of thin air, loonwatch posts the links to their sources. Loonwatch's conclusions are based reports by the FBI and Europol. Are you claiming these loonwatch sources are one sided?
Why would the FBI and Europol try to minimize or make fraudulent claims regarding the number of Muslim extremist terrorist attacks in their reports?
I think you have been affected by pro-Israel propaganda which associates legitimate criticism of Israel with antisemitism. You've read enough of these threads to know that is the first slander used by Israeli apologists to stifle legitimate criticism of Israel.
I have nothing against ordinary Israelis or Jews. I oppose Israeli policies which oppress and discriminate against non-Jews for the same reason I opposed Apartheid South Africa policies which oppressed and discriminated against non-Whites. I am no more anti-Semitic than I am anti-White. (BTW, my ancestry is mostly Western European and some of my ancestors were probably Jewish). I am against all war crimes including those committed by some members of the Israeli Defense Forces. I am against crimes against humanity including those which limit Palestinian access to humanitarian food and medical aid.
I don't support holding Israelis to higher standards than other nations. I support holding them to the same standards as other nations that our government routinely condemns for human rights abuses, war crimes and crimes against humanity. I don't think Israel should get a free pass to commit atrocities free of criticism and I refuse to be intimidated by slander and anti-Semitic slurs.
Like I said, if you believe I am anti-Semitic, give me an example of a post made by me (not by someone else about me) which you believe supports your opinion that I am anti-Jewish or even anti-Israeli.
