Richard Falk 

(Scroll down for video) A Jewish appointee leading the U.N. Human Rights Watch, was expelled by the U.N., after voicing extreme anti-Israel comments as well as publishing anti-Israeli cartoons, according to an official report by the United Nations.

 

Richard Falk, professor of law at Princeton University, has been removed from the commission of Santa Barbara and the NGO no longer listed him on the website of the Committee.

Falk, who is Jewish, had been “strongly condemned” by Prime Minister David Cameron for publishing an anti-Semitic caricature and has been criticized for having supported an anti-Semitic book written by musician Gilad Atzmon.


He was recently criticized by U.S. Ambassador at the U.N., Susan Rice after calling to boycott companies with ties to the Israeli settlements.

“His call for a boycott of private companies is irresponsible and unacceptable,” Rice said. “Throughout his tenure, Falk has been very biased and made offensive statements.

His recommendations do nothing to promote a peaceful solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and actually poison the environment for peace,” Rica said.
