Exactly right — criticism of Islam: unacceptable. Criticism of Israel: required.

Thanks, Weegee, for going to all this trouble. Don't have time at the moment to analyze all this, but first glance shows the Bahamas and other Caribbean Islands who voted for this appeasement resolution (and not with us) are the non-grateful recipients of billions of U.S. tourist dollars over the years.

Delegates from uneducated, jealous, ungrateful, commie, U.S. hating "nations", some barely out of the stone-age stage, are having a ball banding together to screw the west in this and many other pro-Islamic resolutions.

And they screw us out of our money, also....yours and mine. We finance this anti-American organization and it's high-living corrupt U.N. representatives who know the American public is complacent and soft.

There's absolutely no effective patriotic leadership in this country any more....in either party.

God help us.

I was surprised to see much of the West reject this. Pleasantly surprised but surprised all the same. There may be hope yet.

“With us or against us”.

Then again, the Carribean hasn’t had much first hand experience with riots from the Religion of Peace getting upset over a teddy bear or editorial cartoon.

I personally don't feel there's any hope at all. There's no future hope with anything connected with the U.N.

How many decades have we been "hoping" now?

Nothing ever changes, except for the worse.

Things will only get more bizarre and frightening as the U.N. consistently admits into its syndicate a string of 5th-world countries with populations of 20 aborigines and a warlord who takes our money for his "administration" (his own pocket) and then instructs his thug delegate to vote against us.

When I want to call Muslims, demons, koranimals, evil and say that Islam is a satanic cult of death, I’m going to do it. To hell with the UN and to hell with Islam!

How about passing a resolution telling Islam that it can’t criticize the rest of the world in any way, shape, or form! Oops, forgot! Pigs don’t fly...yet.

Too bad we can’t link Islam to Global Warming. What a quandry that would be for the UN.

That’s pretty much it in an nutshell.

And how many candidates for President in EITHER party have expressed opinions against the U.N.?
