Potentially important decision looming for U.S. on Israel

An anti-Israeli resolution that is being pushed by the Palestinians in the United Nations could soon come up for a vote by the member nations. As one of the five members of the United Nations Security Council, the United States would have the power to veto it.

The resolution calls for the creation of a Palestinian state by bypassing negotiations with Israel. By not vetoing the resolution, the U.S. would be endorsing one of the most anti-Israeli resolutions ever brought before the U.N.

We need to pray that the leaders of our nation will see that this resolution is inappropriate, and vote against it so that we can avoid setting ourselves up as a nation that is cursing Israel and not blessing Israel.

On a related note: There are a lot of ways the government of the U.S. can cut spending, but cutting off aid to Israel is probably not the best idea. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky needs to understand that the nations that bless Israel will be blessed, and the nations that curse Israel will be cursed.
