Israel and the United Nations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Israeli Declaration of Independence, was passed by the General Assembly with 33 votes in favor, 13 against and 10 absentions. In resolutions of the UN General Assembly, "[v]iolence perpetrated against Israeli civilians, including the use of suicide bombers, is mentioned only a few times and then in only vague terms." The United States has frequently used its veto to protect Israel from condemnatory Security Council votes – in fact, this is a significant factor in the large number of vetos the United States has enforced in general. www.wikipedia.org /wiki/Israel_and_the_United_Nations

Europe's Consistent Anti-Israeli Bias at the United Nations - An Interview with Dore Gold Given that the Oslo Agreements (Article I, Paragraph 7) gave Israel exclusive jurisdiction in Jerusalem for the interim period, the Israeli government notified the diplomatic corps to refrain from attending the proposed PA briefings. An Israeli who looks at that historical sequence - the bombing in Netanya, the condemning of Israeli military operations, and some reference to an old UN resolution about the legitimacy of armed operations - must wonder what value structure is affecting the voting patterns of these three European countries." Gold clarifies: "Everybody has the right to disagree with Israeli policy, criticize it, and claim that it is not in line with international norms. www.jcpa.org /phas/phas-34.htm   (221 words)

Zinni, a senior adviser to Secretary of State Colin L. Powell. In Friday's speech, Zinni argued that the United States would be wiser to negotiate peace between Israelis and Palestinians and to pursue the al Qaeda network before going after Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. "It's pretty interesting that all the generals see it the same way," Zinni said, "and all the others who have never fired a shot and are hot to go to war see it another way," the newspaper reported. www.historicalmilitaria.com /USMCNews/Zinni.html   (221 words)
