Ouch!

Given they’re boycotting the US as a peace mediator, Haley wasn’t going to stick around hearing them trash her country.

The Palestinian Arabs have burned their bridges. Sure, they can get a sympathy vote from 14 of the 15 UNSC members.

At the end of the day, we hold the ultimate trump card: the veto.

The Palestinian Arabs have burned their bridges.

Not only have they burned their bridges, they’ve burned their ONLY supply border crossing station (Kerem Shalom)that supplies them with gas, food and supplies!

What so-called “desperate” people burn their main lifeline?

Answer: Paleostinians...

Trumps just not fooling around with the violence of those folks anymore....He put Abbass on notice and now Hamas likewise.

Trumps looking for solutions and people who can do that....the old worn out ways of the past he’s not buying nor will he play in their games. Either come to the table with real solutions or everything moves forward without you.

About three weeks ago, I noted that the Saudis kinda told the Palestinians that their long-term strategy wasn’t going to be effective and they needed to move closer to some agreement.

Money-wise, if the US cuts off their money, and the Saudis (because of financial issues and lesser profits on oil) trim theirs....the only big supporter is Iran. Last I noticed, the Iran banks are in serious jeopardy and money-laundering episodes are occurring monthly.

We might be six months away from a ‘wake-up’ but I think the reality that North Korea came to....will occur with the Palestinians shortly.

Note as well...the suggested number of deaths are not readily proven. There might be a few of these guys who died and then were pulled out of the morgue for a second tour, as dead guy number two.

Yup, and our Veto power is the ONLY reason why we should be a part of the UN. Furthermore, if I were Trump, I would kick everyone out of the building and cease contributing a dime to the UN.

Well, I guess this means Haley’s boss has thrown in the towel on peace in the Middle East.

Good to know.

I assume this was the UN General Assembly. The UN General Assembly is a worthless fount of bloviation, and we can walk out as often as we wish.

The UN Security Council we don’t walk out of, since we must be present to use our veto. Ask the Soviets how walking out worked out for them at the start of the Korean War.
