When the results don…

When the results don’t meet your preconceived notions, chuck the report. That’s what the European Union has done with a report on anti-Semitism.

A European Union study conducted amid an upsurge in anti-Semitic violence was blocked from publication because it concluded Muslims and pro-Palestinian groups were responsible for many of the incidents.
…
The anti-Semitism report’s focus on Muslim and pro-Palestinian perpetrators, however, raised objections with the Berlin center’s staff and management board.

The center also did not like the authors’ definition of anti-Semitism, which included anti-Israel acts.
…
Some of the EUMC board members also did not like left-leaning and anti-globalization groups portrayed as harboring anti-Semitic motivations.

“The decision not to publish was a political decision,” said the person familiar with the report.

And to seal the fact that the UN is not only extremely liberal, but extremely unfair…

The EUMC has published three reports on anti-Islamic attitudes in Europe since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the Financial Times said.

This ought to shatter any illusions UN supporters still have about the validity and moral authority of the organization, but of course it won’t.
