BALTIMORE, Maryland, Friday, December 23, 2016 - Never before has an American President abandoned the state of Israel when the rest of the world gangs up on it at the so-called United Nations. Barack Obama has changed that. No one should be surprised.
With the USA abstaining for the first time, the UN Security Council passed a resolution that condemned Israeli settlements on the West Bank, East Jerusalem and in the Golan Heights.
So often during his eight long years, his contempt for the Jewish State - which came into existence on the strength of its people and with the direct help of the great Democratic USA President, Harry S Truman - has been barely controlled. He sent paid functionaries to Israel to attempt to orchestrate the defeat of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He failed. But he rubbed that defeat in Israel's face when he reached an "agreement" with Iran that will permit that nation, run by Islamic Muslims who brag of their open contempt for Israel and vow to destroy it, to obtain nuclear weapons after an agreed-upon waiting period of ten years. Iran has vowed to use a nuclear weapon against Israel first, then against these United States. Obama sees that treaty as one of the hallmarks of his eight years. These anti-Israeli moves are but the highlights of Obama's contempt for the Jewish state, a contempt that has called more than one observer to brand him anti-Semitic.
House Speaker Paul Ryan called the USA Abstention as "shameful" and President-Elect Trump, who worked hard to avoid this result, agreed. Shortly after the vote in the UN, Trump said on Twitter:
"As to the U.N., things will be different after Jan. 20th."
