It's one thing to look out for U.S. interests in the long term. My biggest problem is that this was all done at the behest of foreign government.

If Israel had a problem with the U.N. resolution they should have contacted the other Security Council members directly instead of calling on an incoming transition team in Washington -- that doesn't even have any legal authority to do anything about it -- to fix the problem.

This is accepted work for an incoming administration.

You can't possibly be serious.

1. Administration A -- which is still in office -- conducts affairs in the U.N. as it is legally authorized to do under U.S. law.

2. Administration B -- which isn't in office yet and has no power to conduct affairs in the U.N. -- gets called upon by Foreign Government X to put pressure on other foreign governments to oppose the actions of Administration A.

What planet do you live on where this is "accepted work" for any government in transition?

Talk about the IRONY.

The Obummer Deep Staters pushed and pushed the Flynn case, and Golly Gee,
dirty secrets about his “scandal free” administration are exposed.

There is a God.

Thank you for saying what I am thinking.

But then I never made a study about what a TRANSITION TEAM is suppose to or not supposed to do.

I leave that to the experts. Sounds to me like Flynn had every “right.”

The UN is a big nothing. The transition from Obama to Trump was the biggest abortion ever foisted on the American people. Obama and his treasonous bunch tried to start a couple of wars for our President. Because of Flynn it was averted. Brennan was responsible for some pretty bad stuff. It will come out.

************

Per the article “According to the Jerusalem Post, the prime minister [Netanyahu] called Russian President Vladimir Putin as well as President-elect Trump to lobby against the forthcoming measure.”

Given the gravity of the matter its likely that Netanyahu probably contacted other Security council members as well. But we’ll never know for certain.

Back channel lobbying goes on all the time between countries and leaders and again I emphasize the eleventh hour circumstances in this matter that made it anything but business as usual. Had Obama not engaged in such Machiavellian subterfuge none of this would have happened in the first place.

Obama was trying to give a nasty “parting gift” to the incoming administration that not even the Russians would agree to. It was that bad. Considering the underlying bad intentions of Obama’s scheme I have no problem with Flynn working to stop it.

When someone is in the process of stabbing you in the back do you fret over the legal niceties of defending yourself? No, you do what everyone (and every country) would do to prevent it from happening. That is just life in the real world.
