Elliott Abrams' Righteous Take Down of UN "Special Rapporteur" Michael Lynk

It would be an understatement on an epic scale to say that Abrams is not a fan. Re the Canadian Palestine-venerator, Abrams writes:
[The appointment of Lynk is] a travesty of justice, a breach of the UN’s own rules—and absolutely par for the course when it comes to the UN and Israel. In his press conference on the Human Rights Council’s session, which thank God is now over, the U.S ambassador to the UN, Keith Harper, did not even mention this despicable appointment. He did however, denounce the “especially disturbing” resolution to set up a database of businesses operating in settlements in the West Bank and Golan Heights. The resolution “only serves to reinforce the council’s one-sided actions against Israel” and exceeded the council’s authority, he said. Better than nothing, I guess. 
Lynk will never set foot in Israel or the Palestinian territories, because the Israeli reaction to this nonsense is to deny these “special rapporteurs” a visa. He can write his report in Ontario, [where he now resides], and there will be no surprises in it: another in the long line of UN assaults on the Jewish state.
Whatever moral authority the UN once possessed has long since been squandered on efforts to punish Israel (that uppity, stiff-necked Jewish state that has the effrontery to exist--and thrive--on land claimed in perpetuity for Allah).
