HAHAHAHAHAHA! The United Nations thinks it has the pull to take action against a decision made by the United States? Good look with that.
Apparently, the UN is considering a draft resolution that would essentially “nullify” the Trump administration’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
The resolution, drafted by Egypt and circulated among the Security Council’s 15 members, does not directly mention the United States or President Trump, who moved last week to acknowledge Jerusalem as Israel’s capital city, according to Reuters, which viewed a copy of the text.
What a flaming pile of BS. Not to mention that the United States has veto power on the Security Council, so they know this is pointless.
To be sure, any effort by the Security Council to call for the U.S. decision to be withdrawn would be largely symbolic. As one of the body’s five permanent members, the U.S. wields veto power over any resolution, and U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley is almost certain to shoot the measure down.
They’re expected to vote on Monday or Tuesday. This is a very urgent matter, you see.
According to Reuters, the resolution “affirms that any decisions and actions which purport to have altered, the character, status or demographic composition of the Holy City of Jerusalem have no legal effect, are null and void and must be rescinded in compliance with relevant resolutions of the Security Council.”
I can’t wait to see Nikki Haley’s reaction to this. I hope she tells them all to suck it.
