The resolution upgrading the Palestinians’ status to a nonmember observer state at the United Nations was approved by a more than two-thirds majority of the 193-member world body — a vote of 138-9, with 41 abstentions.

"For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape." 1 Thess 5:3

Peace and safety were the EXACT words being used all during this vote on an illegal sham of a Pali-State being pushed by the islamists. We need to get ready because destruction is on it's way. The final jihad is in the works. They have been emboldened today. I don't say this casually.

“I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there on behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations; and they have divided up My land.” (Joel 3:2)

So the Palestinians are no longer terrorists but have been upgraded to state sponsors of terrorism?

“...joined by Canada, the Czech Republic, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau and Panama.”

Good for them. Out of all the earth, only nine nations were willing to stand up for the right.

We believers are most fortunate because the Almighty has granted us eyes to see and ears to hear. For this we see and hear that our great Creator is indeed real and His Word is Truth. Those who willfully deny Him or oppose His authority are in for a very rough ride—and if without ultimate repentance—then forever. Yikes!!!

IMO, the UN has outlived what little use they were. It is time for them to be “relieved of duty” here in the U.S. and be given 3 months to pack their bags and go, perhaps the Palestinians will take them. The US needs to distance itself from them completely.

The abandonded UN building can be turned into a home for the homeless. What a unique idea, wish I had thought of that.

Oh, before they leave they can pay all their parking tickets which should go to offset the massive overspending by the demmodummies.

So the UN disgraces itself yet again. While this disgusting vote can’t change a thing, it should finally wake up a few of our liberal friends that we need to shut down, or at least export, the UN (and stop paying for it!) Now.
