US Vetoes Resolution Against Israel on UN Killings
"The United States vetoed a Syrian-sponsored U.N. Security Council resolution that would have condemned Israel for the recent killings of a Briton and two Palestinians working for the United Nations in the West Bank and Gaza. Twelve council members, including Britain, voted in favor and Bulgaria and Cameroon abstained late on Friday."
"The United States, which has vetoed some 30 Middle East resolutions since 1972, last used its veto power in December 2001 to kill a resolution on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict... Palestinian envoy Nasser al-Kidwa told the council he could not understand the U.S. veto "but we note that the United States is biased toward Israel."
Let us hope the Palestinian leaderhip understands the US and the vetoes and policies sometime before the Palestinians are finally annihilated.
