Multiple sources from across the Jewish organizational world and in Congress are accusing the Obama administration of stabbing Israel in the back on Friday by choosing not to veto a United Nations resolution censuring the Jewish state, according to conversations with sources.
The resolution, which has been floating through the U.N. for some time, finally came to a vote in the Security Council on Friday, where the Obama administration reversed years of policy by abstaining from the vote instead of vetoing it.
The decision quickly drew outrage across the pro-Israel community and in Congress, where multiple sources told the Washington Free Beacon that the incoming Trump administration is likely to pursue consequences for the U.N.s action.
Israeli officials also lashed out at the Obama administration, calling its behavior shameful and alleging that President Obama used the anti-Israel vote as a way to express his hostility for the Jewish state before vacating the Oval Office.

It fits right in with his cowardly votes of “present” when he was a mere legislator. Can’t be held responsible for any consequences. It’s the equivalent of HRC’s “I don’t remember” and “I don’t recall”.
“How about the Israelis annex the West Bank and expel all the Arabs?”
After what Jordan went through in 1970, no Arab country wants Palestinians - often leftists & thugs.
“By right of conquest, the West Bank should belong to Israel.”
The borders were set up long along. I believe mainly by the British.
I believe incorporating land by conquest is now verboten by international law.
“A so-called ‘two-state solution’ is never going to work if the inhabitants of one state are sworn to annihilate the inhabitants of the other.”
Yup, big problem.
“And I don’t see that mindset changing until the Israelis kick the living dog crap out of the Palestinians.”
The P’s still produce plenty of “dog c”.
He chose to do it right before Christmas, when most Americans are too busy to notice, and when the media happily hides the story.
I hope Bibi wishes Queen Putt a Merry MOSSAD....
Why Jews continue to vote for Democrats is beyond me.
Clown Prince nobama has always been a jackal.
Three more weeks of this America hating Marxist Muslim.
<sarc>Hmmm, yes, that should have been clear enough. </sarc>
Of course, the proper way to incorporate land is to move in and outbreed the locals. Apparently there ain't no law agin' that. (Certainly not in EU or NA.)
You think he’s done. I don’t.
Hear, hear!
Done being Prezzy Stompyfoot? Absolutely. Done being a PITA? Of course not.
Understandably so. Thus it will be incumbent on the "world community" to either find a place(s) nobody else owns or wants or to purchase such a place and move the Palestinians to their new digs. Denmark might be prevailed upon to sell Greenland, e.g. Or the USA might be willing to donate Shemya to the cause...
The borders were set up long along. I believe mainly by the British.
And the borders were authorized an approved by the UN. Importantly, Jewish settlers actually owned virtually every square inch of what is now Israel, having bought the land from the Arab landholders.
I believe incorporating land by conquest is now verboten by international law.
If there is such a law, it is unenforced. Moreover, the Israelis conquered the West Bank in 1967 -- when I'm virtually certain such a law did not apply.
Barack Hussein Obama sat for an interview with a reporter from the N.Y. Times prior to his election to the Presidency. He stated “the most beautiful sound on earth in the evening is the call to prayer”. In perfect Arabic, Obama receited the “call to prayer” which is an affirmation of the Islamic faith.
We knew by his words who Obama is, the Democratic Party knew as did the Press. He was defended by the Press, the Democratic Party, Hollywood moguls, and also by Republicans like John McCain.. We should not be surprised by Obama’s actions now that he no longer needs the support of the Jewish Or Christian Communities.
He did anti Israel stuff prior to this
American liberal Jews
Many detest the predominate culture of the West which they see as threatening or counter progressive more than they fear Islam or love Israel
Loving Israel is like going to temple for them
Show
Right of conquest.....lol
Putin meet Okie
The reasonable minded Palestianins gave up the struggle by the 80s....many if not most were Christian
But yes the refugee swarm which has grown leaps and bounds hurt Jordan and Lebanon
Putin meet Okie
If a nation is attacked and then beats back the attacker, are they not entitled to some compensation? Especially as the conquered territory provides security against a subsequent attack.
I believe you'll find that Putin's "conquests' exhibit a different pattern, where he is the attacker.
If you've got a better idea, happy to hear it...
Just remember what God told Abraham, “I will bless him that blesseth thee, and curse him that curseth thee.” Obunga is storing up for himself a heap of misery for eternity.
And when he tells them to pound sand, he should send the U.N. to where there’s plenty of it; somewhere in the Sahara Desert. NYC is far too cushy for those conniving, ungrateful bahstids.
More importantly, Israel WAS ATTACKED, beginning the war. By all rights, the arabs forfeited their rights to the land when they began the war.
