"Why don't you tell us how many UN resolutions censoring Israel last year alone?"

Do you think that the 50 Muslim majority countries in the UN might have something to do with that?"

192 members of the UN, each with one vote so, NO! It would appear that 50 Muslim majority states could not carry any vote without the support of a minimum 47 non Muslim majority states voting in their favour.

However, it only takes ONE veto to block each resolution, and a swift scan of the veto list shows that every resolution censuring Israel or relating to the Palestinian situation has been blocked by the USA.

There are NO Muslim majority countries on the Security Council, and there is little likelihood of there ever being any, with or without the power of veto.

So Israel is Teflon coated, thanks to Uncle Sam!

You should do some research before showing yourself up for a fool.
