Palestine urges UNSC

Palestine urged UNSC (United Nations Security Council) to take practical steps against Israeli apartheid against Palestinians.
Palestine's Ambassador to the United Nations Riyad Mansour has slammed the Israeli apartheid against his fellow countrymen. He called on the Security Council to take practical steps to stop the crime against Palestinians.

An UNSC meeting on the Middle East peace process took place on Wednesday. At the meeting, he described how the rights of Palestinians have been denied for 75 years by the Tel Aviv regime. 

He also wore a mask printed with the phrase “End Apartheid.” Reportedly, he complained that Palestinians are uprooted from their homes, displaced, and unable to return. Earlier, Israeli settlers uprooted dozens of olive trees in several West Bank cities.

The ambassador also cited examples of “settler colonialism” to talk about Israeli apartheid. He said that the Palestinians see their houses demolished as Israeli settlements expand in the occupied lands.  He said that they took their land and properties. He called on Security Council to take necessary measures to stop crimes against Palestinian people in Jerusalem.

He also accused the Tel Aviv regime’s authorities of withholding hundreds of bodies of Palestinian victims. He also said that the regime has designated human rights defenders in the occupied Palestinian territories as terrorists. He added, “Apartheid is real.” Mansour said that Israel does not give "right" to security to Palestinians.

His remarks came weeks after Amnesty International issued a 280-page report charging Israel with the crime of apartheid. Earlier, the Palestinian Foreign Ministry held the Israeli government directly responsible for the Jewish settlers’ practices in the West Bank. It also criticised the Israeli government’s policy. The  Palestinian Foreign Ministry also expressed its grief over the United States and the international community’s silence on the violations and crimes against Palestinian people by Israel.

Al Gore has history of climate predictions, statements proven false

  Noted climate activist and former Vice President Al Gore, who made headlines this week after he claimed   global warming was "boiling the oceans,"   has a history of making climate-related proclamations later proven to be false. During remarks made Wednesday at the  World Economic Forum summit  in Davos, Switzerland, Gore warned that continued carbon emissions into the atmosphere would destroy the planet and lead to widespread calamities. "We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth," Gore said. "That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees." Gore then not
