The countless anti-Israel resolutions and related debates consume an astonishing proportion of the UN community`s precious resources.

Last year, during the 61th Session of the General Assembly, the time spent by ambassadors on enacting the 22nd anti-Israel resolution of the year was time not spent on passing a single resolution on Sudan`s genocide in Darfur. Diplomats at foreign ministries or UN missions have a limited amount of time to devote to any particular UN session. Because every proposed UN resolution is subjected to intensive review by various levels and branches of government, a direct result of the anti-Israel texts is a crippling of the UN`s ability to tackle the world`s ills.
