“It is in the direction of the Eternal Father that you remove from your country the forces of satan now running rampant in the grouping you call the United Nations.
“You must as a nation take yourself away from this group of satan. You have opened your doors to the enemies of God! These enemies do not defend you, but they wait to pounce upon you like vultures! They are bringing you down to your knees now, My children. Like vultures, they will await their time.” - Our Lady of the Roses, September 13, 1974

"Wow...that Susan Rice. What a powerhouse in the UN, eh?

Did you see her stutter? The woman carries no sense of authority when she speaks. She was also pretty obvious about Obama being unhappy about this particular vote and the process. She said 0 wants "direct talks" and a "two state solution" (as when he tried to arm twist Bibi with in the past over the 67' borders).

Looks like Obama had his thunder stolen today. Bet he can barely wait for another day to attempt to divide Israel and do it all his way.

P.S. ONE "STATE"/ONE NATION:ISRAEL!

You know as someone who is Married to a Palestinian in think I have the Pull say that this bid for Statehood is nothing but Posturing Crap!

How many of these countries will help the People with setting Up food? Bring in Supplies? Establish Trade? Train Troops?

Building a Nation isn't easy and now the Leaders of these nations can say "I helped the Palestinians" when they are looking for something eat after Israel has to carpet bomb the whole place.

Also aren't Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru and Palau Untied States Territories? So only Canada, Panama and The Czechs decided to stand with Israel?

SCREW THE UN!

Hammer, nail, head. The UN just voted for World War Three and the Great Tribulation.
