Comisión de Derechos de la Mujer (ONU): sólo Israel es culpable

El pasado día 9 de Marzo se reunió la Comisión de Derechos de la Mujer de la ONU. En el orden del día: estatus de la mujer palestina, protección frente al SIDA, ablación y matrimonio obligado.

Pensarán: el resultado de tal Comisión no puede ser otro que una resolución contra aquellos países donde se vende a las mujeres en matrimonio, se las obliga a trabajar como esclavas-prostitutas, la ablación es habitual y la asistencia sanitaria es nula. Uno podría pensar que Irán forma parte de la lista, o Sudán, o Arabia Saudí. Je! se equivocan: el único país oficialmente amonestado es…. ISRAEL:

In line with the priority theme for its current session — the elimination of all forms of discrimination and violence against the girl child –- the Commission approved a draft resolution on the situation of and assistance to Palestinian women (document E/CN.6/2007/L.2) by a recorded vote of 40 in favour to 2 against (Canada and the United States), with no abstentions. (See annex.)

By the terms of that text, the Commission would have the Economic and Social Council express the importance of providing assistance, especially emergency assistance, to alleviate the harmful impact of the financial crisis that had exacerbated the already dire socio-economic and humanitarian situation faced by Palestinian women and their families.

Further, the Council would demand that Israel comply fully with the provisions and principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the regulations annexed to the Hague Convention IV of 18 October 1907 [“Convention Respecting the Laws and Customs of War on Land”] and the Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War of 12 August 1949, in order to protect the rights of Palestinian women and their families.

Also by that draft, the Council would reaffirm that the Israeli occupation remained a major obstacle for Palestinian women with regard to their advancement, self-reliance and integration into the development planning of their society. It would encourage all women in the region to take an active role in supporting the peace process. Fuente
