Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Saturday night called on the United States to withhold funding to the United Nations, until such time that the global body reverses the resolution condemning Israeli presence in Judea, Samaria and eastern Jerusalem.

In a tweet, Cruz said he had spoken with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Saturday night to assure him of the strong support Israel has in Congress in the wake of President Barack Obama choosing to break with protocol and abstain during the vote at the UN Security Council, thus allowing the resolution to be approved.

“Spoke w/ Israeli PM @netanyahu tonight to wish him Happy Chanukah & assure him of strong support in Congress. No US $ for UN until reversed,” ...

But what about all the good the UN does--oh, never mind.

[FreeperCell]

I know.

[ZOOKER]

Will our ambassador still have a job Jan. 21st?

[Washi]

It's a good first step.

The U.N. needs to go. For good.

[Fai Mao]

I’ll give Ted credit where credit is due and applaud him for this.

How about eliminating the underlined portion? No more funding for the international anachronism that is the United Nations.

No more money for the U.N., ever!

[toddausauras]

Why the F are we even giving them a dime??

[Go No]

That’s some fine deal making, Lyin’ Ted, lol! Pardon our dust.

[Yaelle]

I’ll give Ted credit where credit is due and applaud him for this.

Agree.

The UN is nothing more than an association of thugs and dictators from third world countries that scheme to confiscate wealth from the US and Western European counties.

Trump should lock the doors and demolish the building.

[txhurl]

You’re not helpful.

[dp0622]

no he is not.

[Scooter100]

Wow! Did I just hear Cruz say something that I agree with? I wonder if his buddy Glenn Beck is on board with that sentiment?

[txhurl]

We got a big war on our hands and the primaries are over.

Six months over.

[Ethan Clive Osgoode]

Why is that, Cruz? Because of your allegiance to a foreign country, Israel?

[dp0622]

Yep. a comment like that at this point in time makes the poster look like an ass.

[txhurl]

Yeah, some of us value our bond with Israel.

[Ethan Clive Osgoode]

some of us value our bond with Israel.

Enjoy your allegiance to a foreign power, American.

[txhurl]

Why, thank you. Think I’ll be checking you out.
