Rogue state, Israel , shits its contempt on human rights and world opinion.
Recently, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution calling for the withdrawal of Israel from the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights. As expected, the resolution passed by a large majority of 157. Seven countries voted against: Israel, the U.S., Australia, the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru and Palau. Ten members abstained
Israel did not take part in the debate, it just contemptously ignored the outcome of the vote. A majority of 157, with 10 abstentions, also voted to call any attempt by Israel to extend Israeli jurisdiction and law on Jerusalem illegal.
Until the General Assembly ends its session at the end of December, which is known in the U.N. as "Israeli month," another 14, as Israel would have it, "anti-semite, Nazi" resolutions are expected to pass.
The General Assembly has no enforcement powers, and its resolutions have declarative significance only thus allowing rogue state Israel full latitude to piss and shite on world opinion (full report on link to Haaretz)
