#8 Israel’s right to build homes is settled … under international law.

[snip] "The notion that there is any moral equivalence between Jews building homes in their homeland that they won back in a defensive war (after it was illegally occupied by Jordan) and brutal terrorists illegally occupying land that was never given to them, is reprehensible. But first, a brief history lesson …

The only binding resolution of international law, a resolution which has never been countermanded to this very day, is the July 1922 Mandate for Palestine. Adopted by the League of Nations, that resolution recognized the “historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country.” It called for the creation of a Jewish national homeland anywhere west of the Jordan River.

#10 If he keeps playing around, Mr. Zero may find himself forever known as the President who tipped the US out of the UN and the UN thence into obscurity.

I could actually get on board with legacy bit like this!

#11 More to come. Something January 15th they say. O wants to twist the knife in the back. This fellow is not going away. He is capable of anything at this point.

#12 O should be careful. Of all the state actors that could successfully reach out and 'touch' him after he leaves office. Israel would be top of the list, Russers too.
