….Kerry visited New Zealand on November 13, shortly after the US presidential election, and took part in "deep" conversation over how its government– which holds a non-permanent seat on the Security Council until the end of this calendar year– could engage in a UN-related initiative on the Middle East peace process. ... Egypt drafted the resolution that ultimately condemned Israel's settlement enterprise as an illegal operation contrary to the pursuit of peace with the Palestinians. The resolution also condemned incitement to violence by the Palestinian authorities. The Egyptians coordinated on the language with the Palestinian Authority, whose chief negotiator, Saeb Erekat, met with Kerry at the State Department on December 12. Israeli officials believe it was at this meeting that Kerry first relayed the president's willingness to abstain. The White House said on Friday that US President Barack Obama had not decided how to proceed until hours before the vote. Last minute, however, the Egyptian government pulled its own draft– due to pressure from the Israeli government, according to Western diplomatic sources, and after President-elect Donald Trump called publicly and privately for the resolution to be scrapped. The draft was then dusted off by New Zealand, which formally introduced the resolution for a vote.----- New Zealand meeting calls into question White House narrative on role in UN vote, The Jerusalem Post ^ | 12/24/2016 | Michael Wilner

The Resolution
Let’s begin by clarifying what this latest resolution means. The kleptocrats, one-worlders, pedophiles and other petty criminals who make up the United Nations are well known for their anti-Jewish bias; the organization has been a hotbed of anti-Semitism for as long as it has existed (see Pedro Sanjuan’s splendid book, The U.N. Gang, for details). The U.N. is always writing new resolutions and reawakening old ones, to act out their ancient bigotry.
The [US] has a permanent seat on the U.N. Security Council, so a part of the U.S. Ambassador’s job has, for decades, been to veto all the stupid, shortsighted, anti-American, and anti-Semitic resolutions that his or her fellow ambassadors propose. Since the U.S. has the power to veto anything the U.N. proposes, for this to have passed proves that the Obama administration approved it.
More than that, however, intelligence indicates that the Obama administration was actually behind this particular resolution. The Democratic Party knows they could not survive voting for it, but if they let it be known that they would pass on the resolution and not use their veto, there would be nothing to stop another country from proposing it, so that’s exactly what happened.[see NEW ZEALAND] …—— ——— Sabotage: The US-Israel Alliance Under Assault from Within, Illinois Review ^ | December 29, 2016 A.D. | John F.
