    The hypocrisy of the rogue regimes that voted against Israel at the UN and condemned Trump’s Jerusalem declaration is so blatant that even CNN has taken note.



    Yemen, Venezuela North Korea, China and other human rights violators were among the 128 countries that slammed President Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and voted against it at the UN.

    CNN’s Jake Tapper asks: On what moral ground do they stand?

    According to UN Watch, the UN General Assembly, between 2012 and 2016, adopted 97 resolutions criticizing a specific country, 83 of which were against Israel. Is Israel deserving of 86 percent of the world’s condemnation, or is something else afoot at the UN?

    Watch the video, please.

    I never thought I'd compliment CNN... but what the hell - BRAVO, CNN :applause::applause::applause:

    Now, if even such bastion of Liberalism rising against UN and by extension in defense of Trump, does it stands to reason,

    AMERICA FIRST?

    Oh, without question or any doubt.

    Certain members of the UN would rather line their pockets with cash, than feed starving children - Oil for Food Scandal

    And it goes on and on.

    Maybe it's just the nature of every organization over time, that corruption takes over from mission.

    Nicki Haley is the right person, in the right place, at the right time.

    Having our ambassador commute from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and staying in unsecured hotels while conducting government business on our behalf does not benefit us at all, that’s an actual logistical fact.

    Your statement is an unproven assumption based on a rabid (read: unable to make rational decisions) anti Trump bias.

    As to the OP: I’m shocked to see a random act of factual broadcasting from what has become the biggest joke in news.

    Do stay away from TDS. This post have got to do with Trump, do focus. If Netanyahu wants us there, he needs to pay for our security with the billions we are giving him. Get of your damn high horse.

    All of the points in which I may have disagreed with the decision, were brilliantly explained by our wonderful ambassador Madam Haley, as she stated that Trump made no such decisions pertaining to the Final Status, and that both parties are free to negotiate the barometers of a future Palestinian State. All this did, was moving an embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. It is indeed an American right(nay, the right of any country) to choose where to place their embassies, their diplomatic posts wherever they want(within the expressed permission of the Host country of course.)

    To insulate otherwise, was hostilities against the American State. This became about so much more than Israel, when the international community betrayed the United States. #AmericaFirst.

    Israel refuses to comply with international law, Geneva Conventions and binding UNSC resolutions.
    So you know... fair is fair. The terrorist state gets condemned all over the place for refusing to comply.


    You know the entire thing is. These discussions never are about WHAT Israel is being condemned over. How incredible silly.



    Not relevant on the topic.

    North Korea and Russia face very strong international sanctions.

    Israel? zero international sanctions.

    so for Israel to make believe they are a victim of international bullies, is pathetic.

    It's my topic, pal, so you don't get to tell me what is relevant in it, and what's not. AMERICA FIRST is relevant to any topic :nana:

    What would you sanction Israel for? For defending Israel in seven wars of aggressions against them?

    So the UN is supposed to prevent trade with Israel with countries that don't trade with Israel anyway because they are afraid of arab terrorism in retaliation if they do?

    Good! Hillary's UN Ambassador would have never stood up to these antisemitic bastards like Nikki Haley and Trump did!

    I'm somewhat stunned they actually ran with it. My guess is the managing editor must have passed out doing crack under his desk and so when they couldn't find him some junior management person okayed the story in the meantime. He'll likely be fired once the senior editor finishes rehab.

    I LOL'ed at "random act of factual broadcasting". It's sad but true that that's how the mainstream media has become when it comes to political coverage.

    What happened to CNN? Did they go insane? At any rate I'm glad they came to their senses if only temporarily.
    Israel has been a common whipping boy at the UN and it's good to see the hypocrisy that's rampant there pointed out.

    "Rogue" You mean these? - http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/21/politics/haley-un-jerusalem/index.html

    Trump did a reckless and dangerous thing, not to mention racist and unfair.

    “Random act of journalism” is the other way I like to say it. Either one is sadly true.
