Here we go again, as the UN dutifully obliges the Arab dictatorships with another emergency meeting that will produce another condemnation of Israel.

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The U.N. Security Council scheduled emergency consultations on the Middle East on Monday at the request of Arab nations following Israel’s assassination of a top Hamas leader and a major policy shift by President Bush.

The 15-nation council was to meet in closed-door session at noon EDT, a U.N. spokesman said.
