We call on the Prime Minister and the Government to dissociate themselves from the action of the UK representative at the UN World Health Organisation May 2015 meeting, supporting singling out Israel as the worst violator of health rights in the world

The Issue

Israel has one of the strongest records of any UN country in improving world health, both in research and development and the discovery of new life saving treatments and drugs, and in going to the aid of countries around the world providing medical care in disaster areas and hands on treatment in Third World countries.  The most recent example has been the state of the art field hospital in Nepal and previously similar provision in Haiti.    Hardly a day goes by without some new breakthrough in the treatment of life threatening illnesses and disease discovered by Israeli researchers.  Israel has been a beacon of light in improving the health of its Arab population, with increased life expectancy and a vastly better infant mortality rate than any of its Muslim neighbouring countries.   The resolution is a complete travesty  and it is hard to believe how the representative of any self respecting Western country could put their hands up in support of such a blatant lie.

StandWithUs UK and all the undersigned call on Prime Minister David Cameron to dissociate himself and his Government from this grave injustice which is yet another example of the unjust way Israel is treated by the United Nations
