Israel Returns to UN Human Rights Council, With Protest Over "Unfair" Treatment

Israel's foreign ministry said the country will appear this week in Geneva at a meeting of the United Nations Human Rights Council, despite claims by the country that it has been unfairly targeted for human rights abuses.

Sunday's announcement effectively ends Israel's shunning of the international body. Last March, Israel cut working relations with the council over its intention to launch an investigation into Jewish West Bank settlements.
