BAD News from the UN

I filed a 13-page Report, Complaint and Petition detailing the abuses of the Israeli Ministries of Social Affairs and Social Services; Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health against minor children and their families.
I sent them to:
1) The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay
2) The United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child
3) The United Nations Committee against Torture ...
4) The United Nations Committee Against Racial Discrimination

This is the last paragraph of the Report:

The world is watching, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Pillay. We hope our faith in the justice of the United Nations can be fully restored. This is an opportunity for the UN to demonstrate to the world that the New World Order it wishes to usher in and an International Court, are a boon to Humanity and herald the beginning of a new era of freedom, welfare, prosperity and justice, and not, as many all over the world fear, the beginning of another dark age, distinguished only from the dark ages gone by in the fact that it will be higher tech and more efficient.

Just after I sent it to them and a few key people, there was a huge power outage.

My Husband couldn't get the hard copies sent because there was an outage at the Post Office too!

Within minutes, I received this in regard to Complaint 4:

"Dear Mrs Dotan,

After careful consideration of the content of your petition (communication/complaint), we sincerely regret having to inform you that the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights is not in a position to assist you in the matter you raise, as Israel is not a State Party to the Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

Please accept our apologies for not replying in a more personal manner. You may understand that, while we appreciate your reasons for writing to us, the existing procedures require that it is ascertained whether certain preliminary criteria are satisfied before proceeding with the examination of a petition.

For information about the procedures for the examination of individual petitions on human rights violations, please consult our website: www.ohchr.org, (direct link http://www.ohchr.org/english/about/publications/docs/fs7_r.doc). If you have difficulty accessing our website, please write to the OHCHR, Information Office PW-RS-011, 1211 Geneva 10, and ask for Human Rights Fact Sheets Nos. 7, 12, 15 and 17.

Yours Sincerely

The Petitions Unit"

That link didn't work for me.

I wrote in response:

Dear Representative of the UN Petitions Unit:
Does the response below relate only to my Report and Complaint of RACIAL DISCRIMINATION Including Against Minor Citizen Children on the Part of the State of Israel?
Or, does it also relate to my Reports, Complaints and Petitions concerning violations on the part of the Israeli government in matters of of the Rights of the Child and Torture?

Israel *is* a signatory to the Pact for the Rights of the Child since 1991.

Thank you sincerely for your concern,

Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan, Tzfat, Israel
Within a couple of minutes, I received this:

"Dear Mrs Dotan,

This answer relates to your three petitions as Israel isn't a Party to any of the individual petitions mechanisms.

Yours Sincerely

Petitions Unit"

I wrote them this:

How weak and pathetic the UN is!

You can say "No" to doing justice in minutes.

But you cannot DO justice. You cannot make peace. You cannot save a child.

All of your armies, your technology, your organization – and you are nothing.

You hold only the power of death of the body in your hands.

But you know nothing of the Life of the Spirit.

Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan, Tzfat

Within another couple of minutes of posting that on my Mystical Anarchy site, I got a notice from Blogger that the blog is locked and being reviewed as possible Spam.

And 10 times today I've gotten a notification that I've been signed off Yahoo! chat because I've accessed the program through another computer or device. I'm not on Yahoo! chat!

Isn't the power of the UN just awesome? Don't they just bowl you over with their wisdom, intelligence style and grace?
