UN condemns Israeli settlements

Quote:

The UN has condemned Israeli settlement building in Palestinian territories and called for the policy to be reversed. The resolution at the annual Human Rights Commission meeting in Geneva was passed easily with only the United States and Australia voting against. Two other resolutions were also passed, calling for Israel to withdraw from the Golan and condemning its use of force.

Votes went 39-2, with 12 countries abstaining. The usual suspects supported and other usual cowards were too terrified to stand against the might of Israel.
