Nikki Haley is killing it at the United Nations
Washington Times ^ | Friday, June 15, 2018 | By Cheryl K. Chumley

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley is just about killing it at the global body.

In recent remarks to the General Assembly, Haley first condemned the anti-Israel faction of the bunch for using the global body for politics, not peace promotion. And then, dramatically enough, she brought to vote a U.S.-penned measure that explicitly faulted Hamas for violence at the Gaza border — a measure that was tacked on as an amendment to an anti-Israel resolution and that actually received the thumbs-up from the majority of the voting parties.

Did you get that? It actually received a majority backing.

This Haley amendment ultimately failed, due to a procedural glitch — a politically strategic glitch that came only after most in the body, 62 versus 58 (with 42 abstentions) voted in favor of the add-on. But what’s clear is this: Haley, who’s been rocking at the United Nations since day one, hasn’t slowed her pro-Israel bent a bit.

She’s entirely unafraid to take on the forces who want nothing more than to see Israel wiped from the face of the map.

“It’s a new day at the @UN,” Haley tweeted, in the aftermath of the vote. “We were proud that more countries were on the right side of history … than weren’t, when it came to condemning Hamas and holding them responsible for Gaza.”

"...a majority of nations in the U.N. voted for the first time to condemn the terrorists of Hamas,” tweeted Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon.

explicitly faulted Hamas for violence at the Gaza border **

That’s more than heather has done ... she put the blame on Israel as much as anyone else. To do that, one has to be blind and biased against Israel.

She caved and took down the stars and bars... and for that, she’ll never get my backing.

The supporter of Marco Rubio and supporter of John McCain’s jihadists in Syria with her speech about the next fake “chemical attack” in Syria in her drive and ready to go.

The Syrian regime is launching an offensive in the South any day now and watch out for the next raging speech from Nikki supporting the false flag.

Its bad enough to blame guns for mass murder, but a flag.

She was toadying to the big businesses that do business in SC I strongly suspect.

Big corporations run our big government and use it to their advantage.

They love super organizations as long as they can be manipulated and Nikki will work to make the UN into a super EU if she has her way.

She is only carrying out Trump’s policy. If she was not doing it well, Trump would replace her. These actions are not hers, they are Trump’s and he deserves the credit.

Nikki Haley is killing it at the United Nations...only by reading off of papers and doing what Trump tells her to do. By her own she is an establishment Republican.

If she disagreed with those policies she would resign, therefore endearing her to the swamp, Never-Trumpers and GOPe that so many on here believe she is one.

Can’t really fault her or Trump for being pro-Israel but Israel needs to stand on its own two feet.

No military intervention in Syria using alleged atrocities or the security of Israel as excuses.

The rumblings from Washington are not good......

Our Syrian efforts are about creating a new nation for the Kurds and Sunnis from former Iraq and syria

The attack on the gas facilities are humanitarian efforts of the world leader

Normal humans love (a) God and desire peace.

That's all.

Lemmee grow my potatoes and tomatoes (or whatever) and rear my family in peace.

LIFE IS NOT COMPLICATED NOR DIFFICULT.

"She is only carrying out Trump’s policy."

That's all that matters right now..and she's doing it well.

“Can’t really fault her or Trump for being pro-Israel but Israel needs to stand on its own two feet.”

Well, there’s only about 5M or thereabouts Isrealis and there’s well over 100M Muslims surrounding them. So, even though the isrealis have an excellent military there’s just not enough of them for a long sustained conflict if one should occur. Example; every Israeli fighter pilot is like gold. They can’t afford to loose many of them as there’s no bench...
