For our Executive Branch to now whine about Israel not supporting us in the UN is beyond pitiful. It is the weakest form of idiocy that I have ever witnessed. Would you say the same if the US does not support Israel in the UN and Netanyahu "whines" about it?

Please. The US is a superpower, and Netanyahu has never whined about a thing in his life. Other than Israel being the Jewish State, do you have other problems with Israel?

Would you say the same if the US does not support Israel in the UN and Netanyahu "whines" about it? It doesn't work that way. Any time the US needs to pass a resolution it introduces, they specifically ask Israel not to support it. Israel support of any resolution will automatically result in dozens of opposing votes.
When we support Israel, we oppose the world. When we need the world's support, we politely ask Israel to abstain.
The fact that this Administration doesn't understand this screams of incompetence and naivete. And now they want to make Israel a scapegoat for their own failure at leadership? This is not the America I was born in.

Would you say the same if the US does not support Israel in the UN and Netanyahu "whines" about it? Would you say that Israel carries the same weight in world affairs as the US? If not, then your question is irrelevant and frankly rather obtuse.
