UN rejects proposal for ceasefire between Israel, Lebanon

The United Nation's Security Council rejected a proposal to call for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon following the Israel Defense Forces' strikes in Lebanon and Hizbulla's rocket fire aimed at Israel, diplomats involved in the discussions reported.

The proposal was rejected due to the objection of the United States, which is a permanent member of the Security Council and has a veto right. (Reuters)

We can pray the UN sees through the gambit of the Iranian Hitler - hopefully Syria will also.
