Israel votes with the US at the UN more than any other nation.
Below are the actual voting records in the UN of various Arabic/Islamic States which are recorded in both the US State Department and United Nations records:
-
Kuwait votes against the United States 67% of the time
Qatar votes against the United States 67% of the time
Morocco votes against the United States 70% of the time
United Arab Emirates votes against the U. S. 70% of the time.
Jordan votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Tunisia votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Saudi Arabia votes against the United States 73% of the time.
Yemen votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Algeria votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Oman votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Sudan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Pakistan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Libya votes against the United States 76% of the time.
Egypt votes against the United States 79% of the time.
Lebanon votes against the United States 80% of the time.
India votes against the United States 81% of the time.
Syria votes against the United States 84% of the time.
Mauritania votes against the United States 87% of the time.
U S Foreign Aid to those that hate us:
- Egypt, for example, after voting 79% of the time against the United States, still receives $2 billion annually in US Foreign Aid.
Jordan votes 71% against the United States And receives $192,814,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.
Pakistan votes 75% against the United States and Receives $6,721,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.
India votes 81% against the United States and Receives $143,699,000 annually.
WHY?
THEY ACTUALLY BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS THEM.
Perhaps it is time to get out of the UN and give the tax savings back to the American workers who are having to skimp and sacrifice to pay their taxes while the government forces concessions and give backs on them.

Iran’s hated leaders, yes, but not the Iranians, or Persians -as they proudly prefer to call themselves. Different.
Imagine how these buttheads would vote without US aid.
Thank you Mr. Belman,
In Iran all thru the 1950’s,1960’s and 1970’s we build roads,schools, hospitals,bridges, educated as many differant professional people as possible. It is also reasonable to believe that most of Irans engineers – BS,MS, Phd levels were educated in the U.S.. Yet today Iran is our biggest enemy. GO FIGURE?
When I get involved studying Middle East politics, especially on sites such as DEBKA, I come away with the impression that the area is divided into many camps:
1. Iran, Syria-Makhlouf, Hizbullah, HAMAS
2. Turkey, Syria-Assad, PA, Egypt, US Left, Israel Left, Afghan-Karzai
3. Al Qaeda, Afghan-Taliban
4. Gulf Cooperation Council, Pakistan
5. Israel Right, US Right
(Don’t worry, if I got some of these wrong: read further)
When looking at the global political picture, things look simpler on the surface:
1. NATO countries and allies (such as Japan, S. Korea & Australia)
2. BRICS (Brazil, Russia, China, South Africa)
Of the two above, the first represents genuine military alliances, and #1 serves, effectively, as the military arm of the UN. BRICS, however, is more fragmented:
1. Brazil, allied with S. American nations, especially Argentina: trades heavily with China, but is a military whore: They deal with Russia and Israel, among others, yet politically support Turkey and Iran
2. The Shanghai Treaty nations, including Russia, China, Kazakhstan, etc.
3. India (which does much business with Russia, but is at odds with China)
4. South Africa, which is militarily concerned primarily with E and S Africa
When trying to connect the geopolitical blocs with the factions in the Middle East, I give up. Everyone seems to want to be friends with everyone, only to stab one and all in the back at the appropriate moment.
Israel, you might note, has a “special relationship” with the US: Their Left is strongly allied with the US Left (including Barack Obama), and their Right is closely allied with the US Right. This didn’t stop “Right” President George W. Bush, of course, from making Ariel Sharon hunt for digs on his own in Waco while he wined and dined a Saudi sheikh on his ranch a few miles away, nor from making the Israeli delegation use the servants’ entrance at Annapolis while the Arabs came in through the front door.
In the final analysis,
1. The Israeli and American Left are both bent on ethnic and national suicide. They trust in the Great Kumbaya to raise them from the dead.
2. The Israeli and American Right have common interests; but both are repeatedly betrayed by their own leaders
3. The NATO bloc serves as the UN’s military arm, with effective resistance coming only from a far weaker Shanghai Treaty group
4. Most nations of the world are effectively grouped only with immediate neighbors, if at all; they can find common cause only in condemning Israel (and less often, America).
Perhaps they GET PAID to do that?
I vote for the United States of America against ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN and DOMESTIC – but it’s difficult these days to know who your friends are versus who your enemies are as everyone greets each other with multiple kisses and smiles while carrying a gun pointed at your head.
I vote for ISRAEL to be THE LAND OF ISRAEL 100$ against their enemies, foreign and domestic.
But what TRULY MATTERS is that GOD loves Israel and America and He has His fighters ready for the final win. Have hope in HIM and don’t trust the world.
