          If we voted for the resolution, it would undo all of the Republican's courting of the Jewish vote.

            The GOP has little chance of getting the Jewish vote, regardless of what it does.

              When was the last condemnation of Palestinian terrorism?

                In a 2002 resolution, the US managed to get in a demand that the Palestinians bring their terrorists to justice, according to the article.

                  But abstaining is refusing to condemn Israel's wanton murder of civillians, day in, day out.

                  Refusal to condemn is near as dammit sayin' that its ok to kill civillians, as long as they're Arabic.

                  This was a big PR boob from the US. They had a chance to look like they cared, and they blew it.

                    We're the one's that allowed it to pass. How much more mock outrage should we provide before it causes everyone to throw up? It isn't as if anyone actually cares about Palestinians anyway.

                      That's a bloody damn time if you compare it to all the condemnations of Israel.

                          I bet they wouldn't... please review your history and tell us all how they have done in the past when it came to war with the Arab Nations

                          And let's remember that they now have nukes...

                          Disappear in a week... I highly doubt it

                            Perhaps that is what he meant by disappear?

                              In the war of Independance, Israel was victorious despite the United States NOT aiding them and plus, some European nations were aiding the Arabs with arms and such.

                                Jamski you're looking at this from the completely wrong angle

                                The US could have blocked this if we wanted to with a veto. Normally the US takes Israel's side all the time.

                                This time an abstain vote is a HUGE lack of confidence showing towards Israel.

                                Israel doesn't really need US help any more. They are more than capable of handling themselves.

                                This is the equivalent of the Arab League issuing a reprimand for suicide bombings against civilians.

                                Like THAT'S ever going to happen.
