“The UN Security Council has passed a landmark resolution condemning Israel over the expansion of settlements in the occupied Palestinian Territories, after the US abstained, allowing the measure to go through despite harsh criticism from Donald Trump and the Israeli government.
The Obama administration did not veto the measure because of the acceleration in settlement activity that has occurred since the US vetoed a similar resolution in 2011.
“The Security Council reaffirmed its established consensus that settlements have no legal validity,” said Samantha Power, US ambassador to the UN. “The US has been sending the message that the settlements must stop, privately and publicly, for nearly five decades.”
The vote infuriated Israel and its congressional allies in the US. Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister who has a poor relationship with Barack Obama, said Israel “rejects this shameful anti-Israel resolution at the UN and will not abide by its terms”.
I can not understand politics less it be “speaking to the rock” Moses instead of striking it. Donald Trumpf is angry. John Hagee is angry. I wait for the day when the Prince of Peace becomes angry.
This abstinence of US Amb. Powers is politics for lying. By saying nothing they lie. What will the new servant for Israel do next year? He is another false prophet come to blasphemy Heaven and dispossess CHrist Jesus of this earth, and his kingdom.
Why are there no UN troops “peace makers” in the “holy land”?! Because Un is an Israeli agency and all this indignation is Jew hypocrisy and histrionics.
Time will tell.
Its Obama’s last swipe at Israel, he is an Islamic enabler. The Muslims will take Obama’s backhand of Israel as a reason to try Benjamin Netanyahu’s resolve. Obama’s animosity towards Israel won’t go unnoticed……
