Germany to Netanyahu: Boycotting UN rights council review will hurt Israel
 Israel is under heavy international pressure to attend a review by a United Nations agency scheduled for Tuesday in Geneva. On Friday, German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle sent a personal letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, warning that Israels failure to attend the Human Rights Councils Universal Periodic Review would cause the country severe diplomatic damage and Israels allies around the world would be hard-pressed to help it.I'm not going to comment on the special quality of a German government official's thuggish threat against Israel. I'm also not going to expand on the contrast between thuggish anti Israel rhetoric and trembling submission in the face of islamofascism. My point is that any reasonably sane and reasonably moral actor should be doing whatever is in his power to disempower, delegitimize and ultimately dissolve the abomination that calls itself UNHRC.
