UN Security Council Bashing of President Trump’s Jerusalem Decision
Canada Free Press ^ | 12/11/17 | Joseph Klein

Posted on 12/11/2017 5:17:35 AM PST by Sean_Anthony

Security Council became a kangaroo court, turning a perverted version of “international law” against the Trump administration for its just defense of the Jewish state of Israel and Israel's right to choose its own capital

On December 6th, President Trump announced his decision to officially recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and to instruct the State Department to begin the process of relocating the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Two days later, at a special meeting of the United Nations Security Council, the other 14 members of the Council, including U.S. allies such as France, the United Kingdom and Italy, ganged up on the United States to condemn President Trump’s decision. Allies and adversaries of the U.S., one after the other, claimed that President Trump’s decision had defied international consensus on how to achieve a viable two-state solution, violated international law and risked destabilizing the region as well as imperiling the peace process. Bolivia’s ambassador was the most strident, demanding that the Security Council take action against President Trump’s decision if it wanted to avoid becoming “an occupied territory.”

To add insult to injury, the UN ambassadors from five member states of the European Union – the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Sweden and Germany - further criticized President Trump’s decision in a joint statement they read following the adjournment of the Security Council meeting. They claimed the decision “is not in line with Security Council resolutions and is unhelpful in terms of prospects for peace in the region.”

“demanding that the Security Council take action against President Trump’s decision if it wanted to avoid becoming ‘an occupied territory.’”

They already occupy prime real estate in New York, and are worried about becoming “occupied territory”. That’s rich.

“Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.”

Psalm 2:1-4

EU Weenies beware that your NATO Dues are overdue and an “Unfunded Obligation” you yourselves have failed to meet - Trump just might ask his alleged buddy Putin to take over the EU and collect whatever Dues he wants from the morally lacking EU.

...international consensus on how to achieve a viable two-state solution...

Yeah. How's that working out? Maybe it's time to try something else...

That would be fun to watch! What would also be fun to watch is Trump moving our bases in Belgium and Germany to Poland! Their economies would collapse with a quickness!

How long has the UN been around?

This is evidence of the global reach of islam one more time by them demonstrating they are a political system masquerading as a religion. The largest voting block within the UN IS the OIC.

“”demanding that the Security Council take action against President Trump’s decision if it wanted to avoid becoming ‘an occupied territory.””

“”They already occupy prime real estate in New York, and are worried about becoming “occupied territory”. That’s rich.””

Who occupies prime real estate in NY?

What’s going to become occupied territory? Who’s “they”?

Is Bolivia saying they will invade/occupy the US? Things are bad enough without having to figure out what on earth people mean constantly!!!
