Biden’s betrayal of Israel at the U.N.

President Joe Biden (File photo)
"The Biden administration ratcheted up its pressure on Israel on Nov. 9, when it abstained from a vote on a United Nations General Assembly resolution titled 'Assistance to Palestinian Refugees,' which raised the canard of the 'right of return.'

This brought to mind former U.S. President Barack Obama’s shameful abstention from voting against U.N. Security Council Resolution 2334, on Dec. 23, 2016, which stated that Israel’s 'settlement activity' constitutes a 'flagrant violation' of international law and has 'no legal validity.'...

The Biden administration has made a concerted effort to return to the ways and policies of Obama. Today, thus, Israel can no longer rely on America at the United Nations...

The resolutions call for the 'right of return' for 'Palestinian refugees' to Israel, as well as for the receipt of compensation for property lost when Arabs left their homes.

Such resolutions have only one focus and one goal: the elimination of the Jewish state...Now let’s turn to the facts. Five Arab armies invaded Israel hours after it was established on May 14, 1948. Israel defended itself and won. Had the Arabs accepted the 1947 U.N. resolution calling for 'partition,' not one so-called 'refugee' would have been created...

It was inappropriate and wrong for the Biden administration to abstain on a vote that is based on a heap of lies. This constitutes a real betrayal of Israel."
