Why Did Obama Give the UN a New Way to Punish Israel?

December 30, 2016 By Debbie Young

What is the damage done to Israel by the U.S. abstaining from voting on passage of a Security Council resolutions that condemns Israel over its settlements? Charles Krauthammer argues, “(F)or 35 years, every administration, including a reelection-seeking Obama himself in 2011, has protected Israel with the U.S. veto because such a Security Council resolution gives immense legal ammunition to every boycotter, anti-Semite, and zealous European prosecutor to penalize and punish Israelis.”

At the very least, Obama should have insisted that any reference to East Jerusalem be dropped from the resolution or it would face a U.S. veto. Why did he not? It’s incomprehensible — except as a parting shot of personal revenge on Benjamin Netanyahu. Or perhaps as a revelation of a deep-seated antipathy to Israel that simply awaited a safe political interval for public expression.
