“”I think this was an effort to box the in-coming Trump administration in, . . . “

The facts on the ground say otherwise.

Words, just words. Sometimes I think that Lawyers and politicians think that because they say or write something, that makes ‘it’ real.

And then when reality bites them on the a$$, they get all flustered.

On the other hand, the Obama administration seems desperate to start a war, any war, any where, why?

As for myself I think that they see that scenario of a war as the last chance to reverse the election of Donald Trump. Well... it’s something to consider anyway.

Seems what obama did could backfire if we did get out of the UN. There are countries that are not fit to have the voting rights. There used to be some talk about getting the UN out of this country..

How about if we stay in, stop carrying them financially, kick them out of NYC, and relocate it someplace like the blazing/freezing prairie in central Kansas....far from an airport (but plenty of parking)

Then we should just veto everything.

My money’s on Mumia Abu-Jamal.

Much as he might want to, Obama can't do a thing for Mumia Abu-Jamal.

He's doing time in the state pen, charged with a crime against the state.

Obama's pardon power extends only to federal crimes.

I was particularly disgusted by Democrats when Netanyahu visited Washington to try and convince them as friends not to sign the Iran deal, because it would be like a stab in the back to Israel. Democrats acted civilized at first, but I could see the hatred in their eyes for this “Jew” trying to tell them what to do. Pelosi and the rest of her God-cursed bunch would just as soon kill every Jew like Hitler did. They are not Israel’s friend. They signed that bill out of sheer hate.

The proposed resolution says Israel’s occupation is “illegitimate,” said Bolton, and “therefore it has no land to give back in exchange for peace.

...

Peace won’t happen anyway. Keep the land in any case.

Should be absolutely no reason for the Trump administration to not just ignore the UN resolution like most countries ignore US or US ally led resolutions.

The UN is a has been body with no teeth and full of third world US hating members. Past time to dismantle it and kick the members back to their individual hellholes.

I hope Trump retaliates by simply canceling our membership in the UN, and serving them notice on January 21st that they have 30 days to vacate that building, because we are turning it into a veteran’s hospital.

Won’t be the last middle finger salute Obama gives before finally going on permanent vacation.

I agree!!! This would solve a lot of other problems. Like all the money spent to protect the so called UN diplomats as well as take away their immunity.

Bo’s bigotry and hate runs deep and wide for Jews, Europeans, american citizens, and all non-blacks. The psychopath is a menace to the planet.

I think this is just a very minor speedbump in Trump’s agenda. Very petty for Obama and hopefully ends Mrs Sunstien’s career.

The resolution does not carry sanctions. It is more like a suggestion if you want to interpret it that way.

A big red flag here for me is that Lindsey Graham -- one of the most despised Republicans here on FreeRepublic -- has been the loudest critic of Obama on this from the Republican side.

As if Obama doesn't signal the biggest red freak flag?
