Also going viral was UN Watch’s tweet on the UNHRC membership, which prompted this La Vanguardia op-ed by Spanish human rights activist Pilar Rahola:
Mi artículo sobre la bonita @UN "El comité de defensa de los derechos humanos de la @UN, donde están Arabia Saudita, Qatar, Paquistán, Venezuela…, no es un comité de defensa de las víctimas. Es un blanqueador de sus verdugos."@HillelNeuer @UNWatch https://t.co/mEK0mhnGpz

World chess champion, dissident and author Garry Kasparov:
This organization is convincing advertisement for a League of Democracies. Otherwise no standards & the worst violators and dictatorships abusing the system. https://t.co/OdUV7OwrZn

Editor Bobby Ghosh:
The United Nations has long since discredited itself on human rights. The Council is a boondoggle for UN bureaucrats, and a fig leaf for authoritarian regimes.
Time to shut it down. https://t.co/un0ShYA6if— Bobby Ghosh (@ghoshworld) December 26, 2018
UN Watch’s report on the UNGA’s November votes was covered in Bild, Europe’s highest circulation newspaper:
.@BILD Hillel Neuer erklärte: „Die Farce bei der Generalversammlung unterstreicht eine einfache Tatsache: Die automatische Mehrheit der Vereinten Nationen hat kein Interesse daran, den Palästinensern wirklich zu helfen oder die Menschenrechte zu schützen.“ https://t.co/jAvQxb6fnA
