Abba Eban. You got the quote spot on, just ever so slightly off with the numbers. It was: 164 to 13 with 26 abstentions. But my favourite Abban Eban quote of all time has to be: "The Palestinians never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity."
Israel should've abstained, just for the bantz. Bantz aside, just over 60 countries who voted in favour are non-democracies, many with horrendous human rights records. Don't think their votes should be counted. So it's pretty close. We'll call it a draw.
I thought Russia's ruling on a country that is currently illegally occupying another territory wasn't without irony. But if we're discounting countries with horrendous human rights records, Israel probs should have just stayed at home.
I love how Russia sometimes comments on world events pretending like they don't bomb old people collecting their pensions.
Like when the community stones women to death? Burning them alive in cages Or orders the rape of women for revenge because another muslim raped someone's sister.
