A brilliant Israeli on the UN

One of the most brilliant scions of Israel (and there are many) was Abba Eban (also see here). Born in South-Africa in 1905, he was a leader of Jews his whole life, in different capacities and circumstances.

This man said the following of the UN:

"...if the Arabs were to propose to the UN a resolution that the earth was flat, it would be passed by an overwhelming majority."

He said this 30 years ago.
