United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley issued a scathing criticism of the UN Security Council over their “anti-Israel” bias on Thursday after emerging from her first regular monthly meeting at the international body.
“I have to admit; it was a bit strange,” Haley said of the council’s agenda.
The former South Carolina governor noted that while it is the UN Security Council’s mission to discuss ways to maintain international peace and security, their meeting on the Middle East failed to address some of the region’s most pressing issues — namely, Hezbollah’s illegal buildup of rockets in Lebanon, the money and weapons the Iran regime is supplying to its terrorist entities throughout Latin America and the Middle East, ways to defeat the Islamic State, and how to hold Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad accountable for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of his countrymen.
“Instead, the meeting focused on criticizing Israel, the one true democracy in the Middle East,” Haley said. She added that while she is “new” to the United Nations, she is well-seasoned in her understanding of the UN Security Council’s generations-long bias against Israel. “I’m here to say the United States will not turn a blind eye to this anymore,” she said. “I’m here to underscore the ironclad support of the United States for Israel.”

I lost all respect for her over that.
Excellent.
Fair enough. Getting my panties unwaddes. Lol.

Sorry, nothing personal. And I’m delighted that the administration is standing up firmly for Israel, and with the job Haley is doing so far. I just hope we will keep pointing out the fact that the UNSC has devolved into a nonsensical organization devoted to nothing besides the condemnation of Israel.
No worries. Did not take it personally. Was just trying to add some humor, even though all of this is no joking matter. Also learned a long time ago that if someone can’t take a little heat here, they should don asbestos garments or not bother posting!
Kick them out. Stop funding it. It’ll breakup and vanish in a year.
There is no reason for us to be supporting those a$$holes.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Nikki Haley, I like Nikki Haley, and was glad to see her appointed to a high post. UN Ambassador, wouldn't have thought of that, obviously amongst the "chaos" people are far smarter than I. She has the courage (would it have been rude to say balls?) for the job. A Russian delegate pounds his shoe on the table to her, his foot will be in his mouth. At least his shoe.
Courage? She took down those confederate flags and caused Amazon to ban them. A flag that once was sold along with the American flag when I was a child and represents the heritage of many decent southerners. She created division among people with her stance and NOW she wants to mediate between the Palestinians and Jews? She’ll probably demand the Jews ban their own flag since it discriminates against islamist nutcases!
She is a Christian now.
But her roots are coming through.
