Good on her! Show the vipers in this den that she isn’t a light-weight that can be pushed around.
Who is better than Assad in Syria? Who does the US want to see in power?
All this grandstanding. Reminds of babies being thrown out of incubators.
Good for her, though doubtless assad would find eager defenders who will post against her on this thread. Some people like a genocide.
I’m quite impressed with Haley at the UN.
I wonder who Evo Morales is planning to gas?
In other words, the only purpose of the session was to put on a public show.
WOW....I wasn’t happy with her being put in this post, but she is proving to be truly GREAT!
When Trump chose Haley for the UN ambassadorship, I cringed, thinking, as the (other) Don put it, that you should keep your friends close and your enemies closer, and letting someone who was your political enemy flail away in NYC while you’re in DC is not keeping her closer. Today Haley made her bones, and I am pleased once again that it is Trump in the White House and not me, for I would never have chosen her. (Oh, and thank God it is not the Matron of Chappaqua either.)
Haley’s got a little Jeanne Kirkpatrick in her.
Using liberal interventionist “responsibility to protect” ideology is a colossal mistake. It strengths the leftist narrative about the world and makes more disasters like Libya more likely. Sounds like Hillary could have made this statement.
I heard part of her speech today: it was terrific
I was a little worried when she was selected. Not any more she has been on fire
She may be anti-Trump but she's sure pro-America.
I like this thread. There are no weeping willows here.
She did great on that one. About time they know not all of our women are like that Samantha Powers.. Nikki gets applause from me on that one.
I love the job this lady is doing.
Is she going to mention atrocities in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, or most of Africa and all the Muslim world? No? I mean, if the US is going to right all the wrongs in this world, why stop with just Syria?
The million dollar question is, how does this benefit the US?
It's possible Venezuela was seeking to support Assad, perhaps even to "defend atrocities", but I'll guess it's more like the Venezuelans wanted to criticize Trump, instead.
Which means Haley possibly got away with misrepresenting an opponents viewpoint.
If so, her doing so would be ---not exactly intellectually honest.
The Venezuelans however, are not due any deference on that score. They are far from being 'honest' about much of anything involving the United States.
Gamesmanship at the UN.
The world would like to blame the U.S. for (ALL) of that too (like they're all just innocent little babies, picked on by the world's biggest bully ---who sends about half of them foreign aid dollars) but just maybe that will either; end, at least somewhat abate, or else the U.S. will start playing by their rules, the rules they use to govern their own behavior, and words?
There are more than a few who should think long and hard about whether they'd want the U.S. to be just like themselves ---when it comes to how they hold their mouths when speaking out loud, at the so-called 'United Nations'...
You would think that the Bolivians would know better since they are in the middle of a diplomacy campaign to regain a seacoast between Peru and Chile.
