US ambassador to the UN slams Iran at Security Council
Jerusalem Post ^ | January 24, 2020 | Deborah Dahan

US Ambassador to the United Nation Kelly Craft slammed Iran and supported Israel at the United Nations Security Council debate on the Middle East last Tuesday, as reported by the Jewish News Syndicate. She urged council members to focus on Iran instead of Israel.

“While the world criticizes Israel, Israel is making the world a better place. The council should not lose sight of this fact,” she said. “Our failure to address Iran’s central role in destabilizing the region sends a powerfully damaging message to those seeking lasting peace and prosperity in the region.”

Craft urged the council to “focus on the regional actor fueling division, violence and hatred. The regime that funds and trains militants focused on the destruction of Israel. The regime that provides weapons and other support to the Houthis and to Hezbollah, props up the [regime of Bashar] Assad [in Syria] and seeks to interfere with Iraq’s fragile democracy. The regime that guns down its own citizens when they protest the corruption, lies and mismanagement of the leadership.”

Kelley Craft sounds like another great pick for that post.

Im not sure but it appears that PDJT is setting the stage for the Iranian people to finally get out from under the IslamoNazi dictatorship there.

Perhaps the only thing causing some good Irani to hesitate is the simple fact that Obama double-crossed them a few years ago, resulting in thousands of people being shot down or otherwise murdered by the dictatorship at that time.

But, now it looks like it really could happen!?
We will see
