Navi Pillay receives Nobel recognition amid controversy

Original: Nobel rewards Navi Pillay’s anti-Israel crusade

Navi Pillay, the former UN human rights chief from South Africa, has been awarded Nobel recognition, drawing sharp criticism from pro-Israel outlets that describe her career as an anti-Israel campaign. Pillay led UN inquiries into Israel's conduct in Gaza and the occupied territories, which supporters call impartial human rights work and critics call one-sided. The award has reignited debate over the UN's treatment of Israel.

Why now: The Nobel honour for a figure behind contentious UN investigations into Israel has reignited arguments over bias in international human rights bodies.
