Netanyahu thanked the Americans for 'their courageous decision against the hypocrisy and the lies of the so-called UN Human Rights Council.'

The UN General Assembly rejected a US proposal to condemn Hamas and accepted a Palestinian initiative to censure Israel.

In an unprecedented vote, the UN backed a US amendment denouncing Hamas attacks on Israel but then blocked it on a technicality. However, it was swift to condemn Israel for defending itself.

Will the UN pass up another opportunity to criticize Hamas' practice of targeting Israeli civilians with rocket attacks?

The US vetoed a UNSC resolution that would harm Israel's security as member countries refused to condemn Hamas for their attacks on the Jewish state. 

'In the interest of restoring calm and protecting civilians on both sides of the fence, I request that you strongly condemn Hamas and hold the terrorist organization accountable for these latest attacks,' Danon told the UN.

Israel’s Mission to the UN held a special event celebrating 70 years of Israeli civil society innovation and the Jewish state's contributions to the world.  

'Israel is the best show in town, and we are only in the first act. The best is still yet to come.'

An Israeli-based international, non-profit organization that saves lives by improving cardiac care for children from developing countries was awarded the 2018 UN Population Award.

'I call on all UN officials to condemn Hamas for encouraging violence, promoting instability and for the despicable act of exploiting women and children by placing them in harm’s way,' Danon said. 

'The Council must condemn Hamas for its exploitation of children as human shields, risking their lives,' Danon demanded of the UN.

'Abbas has once again revealed his true intentions as he directly pays hundreds of millions of dollars to terrorists with blood on their hands,' Danon charged.

Some 60 ambassadors from four continents attended an Israeli-hosted "model Seder" in the United Nations headquarters.

On International Water Day, Israel presented solutions to the global water crisis that could benefit all mankind. 

Danny Danon, Naftali Bennett and Ayelet Shaked were quick to celebrate Trump's appointment of John Bolton as US national security adviser.

'We'll continue to tell the truth and speak the truth everywhere, including in the United Nations,' Netanyahu stated.

'The historical truth is the best answer to the attempts to dispute the eternal connection between the Jewish people and their capital,' said Ambassador Danon.

Israeli leaders welcomed the announcement that the US will move its embassy to Jerusalem in May, to coincide with Israel’s 70th anniversary, while Arab figures expressed anger.

Watch as Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas literally runs away from peace at a UN session!

'We are very expert at throwing the stones. We are very proud to do that. We will not stop teaching our kids [to throw rocks],' a Palestinian diplomat boasted.  

The UNHRC has again taken action against Israel, pursuing its rabid and radical anti-Israel agenda. 

A report has identified as many as 23 ballistic missile launches by Iran since the conclusion of the July 2015 nuclear deal.

"It is time for this absurdity to end and for humanitarian funds to be directed towards their intended purpose - the welfare of refugees," Danon said of the US' cut in UNRWA funding.

We must call on UN members to stand by the US and Israel against a resolution demanding Trump repeal his recognition of Jerusalem as capital of the Jewish state. 

A new UN report on Iran highlights 'violation after violation of weapons transfers and ballistic missile activity' by the country, Haley said, as 'the Iranian regime’s behavior is growing worse.'
