Is this just a way to circumvent anti-Israeli policies in the UN?
Perhaps, is this?

Obama: Israel was forced to close Gaza

The letter from the Senator to the Ambassador speaks for itself:


Dear Ambassador Khalilzad,

I understand that today the UN Security Council met regarding the situation
in Gaza, and that a resolution or statement could be forthcoming from the
Council in short order.

I urge you to ensure that the Security Council issue no statement and pass
no resolution on this matter that does not fully condenm the rocket assault
Hamas has been conducting on civilians in southern Israel…

All of us are concerned about the impact of closed border crossings on
Palestinian families. However, we have to understand why Israel is forced to
do this… Israel has the right to respond while seeking to minimize any
impact on civilians.

The Security Council should clearly and unequivocally condemn the rocket
attacks… If it cannot bring itself to make these common sense points, I
urge you to ensure that it does not speak at all.

Sincerely,

Barack Obama
United States Senator
