‘Lack of American Leadership,’ ‘Unconscionable’: At Least 15 Senate Democrats Publicly Opposed UNSC’s Israel Resolution
(CNSNews.com) – Republican lawmakers unsurprisingly slammed a U.N. Security Council resolution condemning Israel and the Obama administration’s decision to allow it to pass, but almost one-third of the Democratic caucus in the U.S. Senate – 15 of the 46 senators – have also come out publicly since Friday against the move.
“Extremely frustrating, disappointing & confounding that the Administration has failed to veto the U.N. resolution,” tweeted [1] incoming Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), setting the tone.
Schumer described the U.N. as a “fervently anti-Israel body.”
