Bolton Stands Up Against the UN (Again)
The United Nations was thwarted today in another attempt to demonize a country trying to protect itself from organized, genocidal terrorist gangs.
By John Bolton, acting for the United States: U.S. vetoes condemnation of Gaza strikes.
We’re all going to be in big trouble if the Dems succeed in their coming push to remove Bolton.
UNITED NATIONS - The United States vetoed a U.N. Security Council draft resolution Saturday that sought to condemn an Israeli military offensive in the Gaza Strip and demand Israeli troops pull out of the territory.
U.S. Ambassador John Bolton said the Arab-backed draft resolution was “biased against Israel and politically motivated.”
“This resolution does not display an evenhanded characterization of the recent events in Gaza, nor does it advance the cause of Israeli-Palestinian peace to which we aspire and for which we are working assiduously,” he told the Security Council.
The veto unleashed a flurry of criticism in the Middle East.
