Israeli Ambassador Danon Slams Palestinian Rep. Antisemitic Statements to UN "Human Rights" Council

Israeli Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, responded on Tuesday evening to statements made by Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister, Riyad al-Maliki, who called to countries across the globe to deny entry to Jews who live in Judea and Samaria.

"These remarks are pure anti-Semitism and must be treated as such. Such statements are reminiscent of dark times in history. Jews will no longer be marked and singled out"," said Ambassador Danon, "I call on the international community to denounce the Palestinian Foreign Minister's remarks and to unequivocally condemn all manifestations of anti-Semitism," he continued...

Sources close to Israel's envoy to the UN indicate that Ambassador Danon is in contact with senior UN representatives to urge them to condemn al-Maliki's statements and stop the PA-bred anti-Semitic initiative.
