I think the relevant question is why was the sentence about Jerusalem removed. As well as the part about Hamas (which has not been added back).

I am not saying that Obama has anything to with it. However it is clear that putting it back in did NOT get a 2/3rds affirmative.

I am saying that taking it out represents the views of a huge number of Democrats, and that is where they break from the President.

I like this sentence from the Republican platform:

As long as its scandal-ridden management continues, as long as some of the world’s worst tyrants hold seats on its Human Rights Council, and as long as Israel is treated as a pariah state, the U.N. cannot expect the full support of the American people.

True words.
