In a stunning departure from its policy over the last eight years, the Obama administration abstained from voting on a United Nations Security Council resolution Friday that demands an immediate halt to all Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, enabling the measure to pass.
The resolution was approved with 14 member states voting in favor, none voting against, and one abstention — the United States.
The U.N. Security Council condemned the Israeli “settlements” and continuing construction in “Palestinian territory” as a ‘flagrant violation’ of international law.
Instead of casting a veto to support Israel, as it almost always does on council resolutions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the U.S. abstained.
That gave a green light for the council to approve the resolution by a 14-0 vote with U.S. Ambassador Samantha Power abstaining, a move greeted with loud applause in the packed Security Council chamber.
The resolution says “Israel’s settlements on Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, have no legal validity.”
It demands a halt to “all Israeli settlement activities,” saying this “is essential for salvaging the two-state solution.”

You used such an old picture. And I’m sure he’s just doing this because of his racism toward Arabs and wanting to prevent them getting jobs in the future.
Now we know how the Chashmona’im felt just before Chanukah. And just as Hashem saved them then, He will save us now.
Have more kavaah tomorrow night when you say Al haNissim. Read the words, understand them, and daven that they should be mekuyam today as they were then.
A lichtige Chanukah to all of Klal Yisroel.

He read the Megillah – one who wishes to rise to prominence must start with the Jewish Nation. However, the rise is only to increase the gravity of the impending crash – like Haman.
She’b’chol dor va’dor omdim aleinu le’chaloseinu…

Succha daf 40! 4 things God regretted creating….muslims!!!
Some people should review that sagacious adage attributed to Rav Yisroel Salanter zt”l.
“Not everything that one thinks — should one say aloud.”
“Not everything that one says — should one write down.”
“Not everything that one writes — should one publish.”
It’s worth remembering that the Democratic Party is (at present) down, but definitely not out. A little more discretion is called for.
Though I have many frum friends in Lakewood, NJ, I know very little Jewish law. I claim to know goy “law”. Obama is a goy and with few exceptions, i.e. Churchill, Schindler, Wallenberg, Sgt Schmidt, etc., Jews are a bete noir to the goy—all goy.
All Jews are to study Torah, the Talmud and the numerous commentaries by the sages on these holy sefers. And, to do so as much as possible.
Obama, Neo-nazis, Arabs, the UN, Europe, even the USA are goy. As friendly and as close as I am to many Rabbis in Lakewood, NJ, I repeatedly say:
To all Jews:
1) Whatever Talmud Torah, you do, do a little more !!
2) Whatever davvening you do, do a little more !!
3) Whatever Chesed you do, do a little more !!
4) Be very, very, very, careful of ALL GOY INCLUDING
ME !!
The above four requests were endorsed multiple times
by a very great Rabbi in Lakewood, NJ. Even as a low
character goy who has cursed the Almighty for my
present problems—the Rabbi has emphatically stated
I can and should make these four requests to Jews.
The great Rabbi certainly KNOWS Jewish law !!!
May I now wish all Jews everywhere; ” Chag kasher
v’sameach for Chanakah. ”
A goy,

would any sane person want to go to his chanuka party?
let him party w/ Haman and the rest is history
may he have a miserable day everyday day what is left of his miserable life. When he dies will be a celebration for the world. he single handly cause disturbance in the whole Middle East. this piece of rubbish cause problems, for Eqypt, Libya,
Jordan and Syria. The 500,000 dead are the result of his middle east policy. obumma go to arzaziel
Israel should annex Judea and Samaria immediately. Obama is Amalek.
Iyh He’ll get the Same ??? as the Kennedy’s ym”sh. … And Have a Misa Meshuna. …. amen
This ממזר invited yidden for some greasy latkes, all the while planning to stab them in the back. A true בן חם.
Thank G-d for the Electoral College, so Hillary can commiserate and drink away all her problems, but we Americans have been spared.
It’s a Wake Up to Every Jew to the Ugly Reality of how much We are Despised!
chabad runs to befriend such as Rasha to get the advertisement.
Thank G-d we’ve been spared another 8 years of this “liberal” help. At least we know what his true colors are.
Hashem will punish Obama. We can be reassured of this. We believe and KNOW as yidden that there will be a great day of judgement….
Bottom line this is not Obama this is HASHEM !!!! It’s a wake up call for all of us.
RE: THE MASK IS FINALLY OFF
What a stupid headline. The mask was never on. This ugly mumzer was always seen as a Jew-hater. He could foll only some people on this forum, we know who they are.
Hashem is using him as a way to persuade us to do complete repentance ASAP.
Obama is delighting in what he has done to Israel. Let there be no doubt that he has allowed this to happen as punishment for Israel because of his inability to get Benjamin Netanyahu to give into his demands on Israel. There is zero doubt in my mind that Herr Obama is a Muslim sympathizer and no friend to Jews or Israel. Leftist Jews will applaud Obamas move when those who truly support Israel will be dismayed by The ramifications of this abstention. Obama and pals are making a last ditch attempt to delegitimize Israel while igniting the fires of Israel hatred.
