Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday announced that he is canceling the planned visit of a delegation to Washington after the United States refused to veto a U.N. Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Minutes before the resolution was carried by 14 votes to zero, Netanyahu told Israeli news media that the visit would not happen if Washington failed to veto it.
'In light of the change in the American position, Prime Minister Netanyahu decided the delegation would not leave,' his office said after the vote, calling the decision a 'clear retreat' from its previous stance.
The impasse is the latest twist in diplomatic efforts to ease the suffering of Palestinian civilians caught up in fighting and to secure the release of hostages held by Hamas.
And it highlights how the relationship between the U.S. is breaking down amid the bloodshed in Gaza.

There are Palestinian non combatants? Where, who, children under the age of four? If only the Pali cockroaches had taken the advice of Agent J.
