Is there any fear that that antagonized him and his allies against the palestinians? >> well, its the move of the u.n. was really anti-peace and to affirm a two-state solution and the co-existence between the two cities and not to affirm the long-standing u.s. policy, i would understand your question. but it was to save us and israel and craft our way towards the future. if you read the resolution, will you find out that this is the best for both palestinians and israelis. the problem is that if...

A resolution saying the world was flat and it would automatically get 70 votes. i think anything having to do with israel and the united nations, its so biassed and one sided about israel, it shows that the united nations is not even handed, that israel can no do right. and its whats really ridiculous is that at a time when hundreds of thousands of people are dying in syria you have genocide in south sudan. you have people being killed all over the country, and i would say that the united states...
