US won’t veto UN Security Council vote on settlements if Israel builds anew
|
| Another threatened UN non-veto. |
[IsraelTimes]'Should West Bank construction resume in response to terrorism, Washington won't block resolution branding settlements illegal, report says
has reportedly issued Israel an ultimatum this week: announce new settlement construction and Washington won't veto a Security Council resolution declaring West Bank settlements illegal.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected calls by senior ministers for construction in Jewish settlements in the West Bank in response to an increase in Paleostinian terrorism, at a meeting of his security cabinet on Monday.
That was because the B.O. regime had warned Netanyahu against announcing new construction over the Green Line in response to the uptick in terrorism, Channel 2 reported Tuesday.
The report cited senior sources in the Israeli government as saying that the White House told Netanyahu that the US wouldn't necessarily veto a French-sponsored resolution at the United Nations
...an idea whose time has gone...
Security Council.
Washington's reported threat to not veto the motion at the UN came shortly after a Politico report which said US President Barack Obama
We're gonna punish our enemies and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us ...
had rejected multiple calls by a top Democratic senator that he speak out publicly against a Paleostinian statehood resolution at the United Nations.
Obama's refusal, the report said, "highlights how wide the gulf between the B.O. regime and Israeli government has become." The rebuff "unfolded in the context of a personal relationship between Obama and Netanyahu that's become highly toxic, poisoning US-Israeli relations more widely."
| And the White House, one assumes, is happy for the world to know this. |
