The US, Britain, and France walked out of a UN Security Council meeting yesterday, after the Libyan ambassador made a typically disgusting statement.
UNITED NATIONS - Dilomats from the United States, Britain and France have walked out of a U.N. Security Council meeting after Libya compared the situation in Gaza to Nazi concentration camps.
Wednesday’s walkout was a rare protest by members of the U.N.’s most powerful body against one of their own members.
It came when Libya’s deputy ambassador made the comment during a closed council discussion of the possibility of issuing a press statement on recent Mideast events.
Why walk out now? This kind of antisemitism is nothing new at the United Nations.
