| Summary / Abstract (Note) | "Unfortunately?.?.?.?Israel [has] suffered from bias-and sometimes even discrimination" at the United Nations, said none other than the UN's highest official, Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, speaking in Jerusalem in August. Back at headquarters a week later, Ban withdrew the substance of the comment without denying he had made it. The retraction was less surprising than the original assertion, which was remarkable because of the identity of the speaker, not for what was said, the reality of which is about as well concealed as the sun on a cloudless noon. |
