Barack Obama has less than a month remaining as president, and the world is taking advantage.
This week the United Nations quickly pushed through a resolution that would declare Israeli settlements illegal. The measure was fast-tracked largely in order to take advantage of the Obama administration’s tepid relationship with Israel — something that will likely change once Donald Trump assumes office in late-January. The resolution passed on a 14-0 vote.
In the end, the United States didn’t even vote on the controversial resolution. Despite having veto power over any U.N. resolution, American U.N. Ambassador Samantha Powers chose to abstain from the vote, allowing the resolution to pass unanimously.
It was perhaps the most cowardly thing the Obama administration could have done. They were too afraid to stand up for Isreal and too afraid to finally admit that they don’t care about the Israeli people.

This is the only good thing Obama has ever done.
Cut the un off
Samatha Powers is the one that sold Israel down the river. It was her non-vote that turned the world against Israel. Now we have to clean up her mess. Is her allegiance to Obama that evident to ruin her political future?
There is no Palestine. The land belongs to Israel. Kick those invaders out; they can live in Saudi Arabia’s tent city.
They should not only defund but kick their ultra liberal and terrorist asses out of the country. If the UN wants to remain an entity they should do it in Iraq or Iran. Those countries are more in line with their way of thinking. GTFO.
obama is the coward’s leader.
Both Israel and Palestine are Semetic peoples.
Get rid of the UN now ! Just a bunch of NWO Commie Rat Bastards !
Defend ?
Congress better listen to the people. Defund the UN. Help Israel
