Permalink Obama’s First UN Veto: US to Stop Security Council Calling Israeli Settlements ‘Illegal’

The case for the illegality of conquering territory, depopulating it, and building government subsidized, religiously exclusive cities over the ruins does not appear to be in serious doubt over much of the world, but of course it is a topic of debate in Israel, and like any good topic of debate in Israel the most ignorant and hawkish position has become law of the land in the US, to the point that suggestions to the contrary are considered outrageous. Which has left the administration offering to support a watered-down draft calling the settlements “not legitimate” instead, but skirting the question of legality.
