Israel warned New Zealand that UN resolution was 'declaration of war': report

Wellington: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu personally phoned New Zealand's Foreign Minister Murray McCully to warn him a UN resolution co-sponsored by the country was a "declaration of war", according to a leading Israeli newspaper.

The UN Security Council resolution called for Israel to stop building settlements on occupied Palestinian land, including East Jerusalem, declaring the settlements "illegal".

It was picked up and sponsored by New Zealand and three other countries after US President-elect Donald Trump reportedly pressured Egypt into dropping it.

It was passed on Saturday after the US abstained instead of vetoing, as they historically have done on votes concerning Israel.
Fuck you, cock.

Benjamin thingo is a knob. At least Ariel Sharon (for all his faults) tried to do something to cut back/stop Israeli settlements on Palestinian land.

Is this ever going to be 100% resolved? I suspect not, sadly.

Nothing
 
We should just give the Jews the South Island, or part of it. I mean, it'd stabilise the middle east anyway, and it's not like we have any population density problems here in NZ. Conditional upon them all GTFO of the middle east, of course.

Imagine taking that call. It's a real feather in National's cap really.
