Close U.N. Vote Expected on Motion To Denounce Israel (France Still A Wimpy Traitor!)
Arutz Sheva ^ | 7/13/06

Posted on 07/13/2006 12:33:41 PM PDT by areafiftyone

IsraelNN.com) The United Nations Security Council is to vote on a resolution condemning Israel for its retaliation in the Gaza region following heavy Kassam rocket attacks. A close vote is expected. The United States wants to postpone the vote until after the weekend, but Qatar wants a vote Thursday night.

The United States is lobbying the council's 15 member nations to vote against the motion, while Qatar is pressing for its passage. A two-thirds majority is required to pass the resolution. France said it will vote for it.

Well, I'll say one thing for France, it is consistent. Consistently full of bleep, but at least consistent.

Does the UN recognize Israel? I didn't think that they did. Not that it really matters...

Kofi Annan is doing his darndest to look like the UN still has pull. His salary is on the line and I think he knows it. I wish the US would pull the plug on that corrupt, defunct org sooner rather than later.

"Those damn Jews are defending themselves again! What an outrage!"

This is the real UN -- viciously anti-Semitic, anti-Western, criminal, psychotic.

US just vetoed it, according to Fox.

Why are we still in the United Nations? It is not united, and it is more a league of tyrants. Many nations are not free, the will of the criminals who run them is not the will of their nation, why should we care?

Wonder what would happen if the people of the world could take a vote to condemn the UN?

Why are we still giving them money. The U.N. Should move to France. They would feel very welcome there.

US vetoed it because it was one sided. The UN just proved it's irrelevance, MORE.

These idiots can roll in there in a matter of days to vote on Israel but, can't seem to get together and vote on Iran or NK. Typical!
