The United Nations just showed its true colors again. The General Assembly voted 142 to 10 to demand a Palestinian state. This is nothing but another attack on our strongest ally in the Middle East.
Eugene Kontorovich knows what he is talking about. The Heritage Foundation expert has spent years studying international law and defending Israel. When he warns that a Palestinian state means the end of Israel, Americans should listen.
The UN has been hostile to Israel for decades. These same countries that vote against Israel every chance they get are often the worst human rights violators on Earth. Yet they lecture the only democracy in the Middle East about how to defend itself.
Kontorovich recently joined Heritage Foundation to fight back against this nonsense. He understands that international institutions have been captured by anti-American and anti-Israel forces. The man knows his stuff and is not afraid to speak the truth.
A Palestinian state would be a disaster for Israel and America. It would create another terrorist haven right next to our closest ally. Hamas and other terror groups would use it as a launching pad for more attacks on innocent Israelis.
The Biden administration has been weak on this issue for too long. Instead of standing firmly with Israel, they have given mixed signals that encourage our enemies. This UN vote shows the world thinks America will not stand up for its friends.
Israel is surrounded by enemies who want to wipe it off the map. The last thing they need is another hostile state created by international pressure. Kontorovich is right to warn about the dangers of this foolish plan.
Real conservatives know that America must stand with Israel no matter what the UN says. These international bodies hate both America and Israel because we represent freedom and democracy. We should ignore their demands and support our ally completely.
