In reply to Dorothy Finlay. Is New Zealand really your country? Move to Marshall Islands or Nauru if you are not happy with NZ. Incidentally they are countries not insignificant islands.

In reply to Harry Ark.

You state:
“I am ashamed of Australia for abstaining while the rest of the civilized world voted against Trumps terrible decision”

Nonsense and an outright lie.

35 Nations abstained:
Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Australia, Bahamas, Benin, Bhutan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cameroon, Canada, Colombia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Dominican Republic, Equatorial Guinea, Fiji, Haiti, Hungary, Jamaica, Kiribati, Latvia, Lesotho, Malawi, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Philippines, Poland, Romania, Rwanda, Solomon Islands, South Sudan, Trinidad and Tobago, Tuvalu, Uganda, Vanuatu.

21 Nations did not even turn up to vote:
Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, El Salvador, Georgia, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Mongolia, Myanmar, Republic of Moldova, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Samoa, San Marino, Sao Tome and Principe, Sierra Leone, Swaziland, Timor-Leste, Tonga, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Zambia.

What is your motivation in deliberately being so transparently deceptive and misleading?

I think you need to apologize and admit your statement is false without delay.

The resolution will change nothing as its only words but neurotic Trumps boast that America will not help these countries shows his immaturity. Incidentally help from the USA usually means war and death.

This is not a forum. Obviously JWire does not believe in free speech. If I simply say that I agree with the UN on this resolution, it will not be posted. Only posts that agree are posted. This is a great insight into the heart of this web site which obviously is only serving hasbara. I have read the rules on posting comments and nowhere does it say that only one side of an argument will be posted.Shame on you for being liars and weak, for you are weak. You cannot withstand a debate. There is no debate, only hasbara. Liars! Filth!

I am ashamed of Australia for abstaining while the rest of the civilized world voted against Trumps terrible decision. I hope one day Australia will stand with all other nations in opposing America’s stance.

65 nations did not vote against USA and Israel.

That made it around 2-1.

Not the 90-1 Israel usually gets.

As for new Zealand—i have had enough of these hypocrite ” do gooders.”

I am ashamed of my country New Zealand who voted for the UN resolution and were the co-presenters of UNSC 2334 last year. At least Australia had the grace to abstain and God has noted that. In Zechariah 12 v3ff Jerusalem is described as the heavy stone which will break all nations who seek to lift it. It is not so much the declaration of President Trump who spoke the truth, but the fact that God has described Jerusalem as belonging to Him and in Psalm 48 He states that Jerusalem is the city of the Great King-not the city of the Palestinians. I am so grateful that the simple and apparently insignificant Islands of Marshall Islands and Nauru stood with Israel because it was the right thing to do. May Am Israel chai !
