US Ambassador to UN Explains Veto of Resolution Calling for Humanitarian Ceasefire in Gaza 

Leah Barkoukis / Townhall Tipsheet

The United States was the sole veto of an Algerian proposal at the UN Security Council that called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. 

Algeria’s representative to the U.N., Amar Bendjama, criticized the U.S., arguing that "voting against it implies an endorsement of the brutal violence and collective punishment inflicted upon them.”  

But Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, explained the veto in a statement. 

“For weeks, we have made it incredibly clear that the resolution before the council would not achieve the goal of a sustainable peace and may in fact run counter to it,” she said. “Proceeding with a vote today was wishful and irresponsible." 

Instead, the U.S. is circulating draft text of a competing resolution that calls for a temporary humanitarian ceasefire and the release of hostages.

Democrat-run states and cities across the country that have been inundated with illegal immigrants in recent months previously earmarked tens of millions of dollars in COVID-19 financial assistance programs to support "undocumented residents."

According to a Fox News Digital review of state and local programs, Democrat governors and mayors earmarked at least $517 million for the programs, which generally consisted of providing cash payments to individual illegal immigrants. The funding reviewed by Fox News Digital was drawn from the American Rescue Plan (ARP), the $1.9 trillion federal COVID-19 stimulus package President Biden signed into law in March 2021.

"This means the Biden Administration directly subsidized ‘undocumented’ immigration under the guise of COVID-19 pandemic relief," a recent report from the Economic Policy Innovation Center stated, pointing to how federal ARP funds were diverted to illegal immigrants in Washington state.Read more and see videos here.
