Netanyahu threatened New Zealand; called UN resolution "declaration of war"

[Glorious Leader]

Hey Filipino strong man Duterte threatened to burn down the UN and everyone thought it was a joke. Netanyahu is just as comical.

[Gamevizier]

the members of the UN have been trying for years to condemn Israeli actions and in many cases US was among the very few countries who would vote in favor of Israel. now that the US has voted against Israel, all the countries are now suddently "out to get the jews"? Israel brought this on themselves by acting like a spoiled brat. they don't get along with anyone in that region, the only reason they're not being seriously punished is because the US is behind them 24/7.

they might not be as bad as Hezbollah, or ISIS, or Hamas, but that doesn't suddently make them good. couple that with the fact that Netanyahu has been pissing Obama off for years and you shouldn't be surprised if the Obama administration would be giving them a parting bitch-slap.

not that it would matter though, Trumps' team is gonna have their tongues far up Israel's ass from the looks of it.

What would you do to enforce the UN resolution and Israel ignoring you, even mocking the United Nations of the world? I just think the next few steps ahead.

Economic sanctions come to mind.

[Machismo]

Saying you intend to force Jews to not live in the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem, where they have lived for over a thousand years is deeply offensive.

It's outrageous that after 8 years, Obama orchestrates a cheap shot like this in his last month in office. It's extremely unprecedented for a lame duck to do stuff like this. Bush Sr made sure to get permission from incoming Bill Clinton before he took military action in Somalia. This is a classless move.

We can get mad that Obama chose to not stand in the way, but that doesn't change the fact that the Israeli government is doing something pretty crappy. We ignored the apartheid in South Africa, because they were our allies. Israel is basically doing the same thing, I see no reason why we should defend oppression.

Actually, it's a lot closer to American Indian reservations, then it is apartheid.

Also another form of unacceptable oppression.

Of course, Indian reservations are/were largely autonomous, not so much with the Palestinians. Indians were also allowed to create their own products, and actually import goods onto their land. The Palestinian people should be allowed to succeed or fail all on their own, and they should either be allowed to be a sovereign nation, or have equal rights within Israel. Neither of those things is happening.

It hasn't been useful since the cold war ended.

Netanyahu's paranoia is doing serious damage to his country.

Republicans over here in the US will encourage and empower him even more. Guaranteed we are invading Iran under a Trump administration. Not if but when at this point.

[JohnBrown1917]

If we're all gonna argue that a place where our ancestors once lived still belongs to their descendants thousands of years later we'd have a lot of wars.

Welp, time to claim Germany, Belgium and Scandinavia for the Dutch.

Hopefully no countries in the EU will join this time.

[jdbond592]

Yeah, cause voting on a resolution to admonish an ally isn't a POS move?

Israel is no one's ally. It is merely a wet dream of right wing America who want to keep the holy land protect from infidels till Jesus comes down and smites Muslims and Jews alike. Tell me if I am wrong.

B-but muh America first!!!

Not happening and an absurd assertion about Iran. What even makes you believe that? Trump's biggest shot at Iran during the election was indirect, by complaining about Hillary's/Obama's deal. Name the two countries that have been abstracting US actions against Iran in the UN Security Council and tell me why Trump will go against his closest foreign ally.

[Varitok]

Cool, maybe you guys in the US can stop sending them billions of no strings attached dollars too.

[jdbond592]

B-but muh America first!!!

When Trump was bashing ungrateful allies who don't carry their fair share, he wasn't talking about Israel. No one talks about holy cow.

There is only one country where you can buy Trump Vodka and it's not US... or Russia...

Israel sure knows how to make friends. Netanyahu is a piece of garbage.

How would you feel if other nations, which have nothing to do with this conflict at all, were threatening the security of your nation and people?

[tss]

Man, you need to tell me how to get a hold of whatever they're taking to live for over a thousand years. This must be humanity's best kept secret.

Damn yo that was really clever

Clearly there will be no conflicts of interests from our new president.
