If you're Israel -- or the United States for that matter -- the United Nations thinks you're a WAR CRIMINAL!

Let's face facts.

When Hezbollah terrorists started launching missiles at the people of Israel without provocation, the United Nations -- which had previously and solemnly promised to protect Israel in just such a circumstance -- SAID NOTHING... DID NOTHING!

But when Israel took the only action available to them and struck back in its own defense, the United Nations had plenty to say!

The so-called United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator Jan Egeland, self-righteously pontificated that Israel's defensive actions were a "violation of humanitarian law."

And the so-called United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour actually insinuated that Israel -- and by inference those who support Israel (namely George Bush and the United States) -- should be tried for war crimes when she addressed the "personal criminal responsibility of those involved, particularly those in a position of command and control."


U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton immediately called Arbour on the carpet, saying, "[P]rosecutors are not supposed to threaten people in public based on press reports... I would just say as one lawyer to another to Mrs. Arbour that she should consider her professional ethics and responsibilities very carefully here."

Bolton also laid it on the line and said there was NO "moral equivalence" between those killed in Lebanon and in Israel. He immediately labeled the actions of Hezbollah -- exactly what they were -- "malicious terrorist acts" and the deaths of civilians in Lebanon "sad and highly unfortunate consequences of [Israeli] self-defense."

THANK GOD for John Bolton! That kind of straight-talk is EXACTLY WHY America NEEDS John Bolton in the United Nations!

That's also why Senate liberals like Ted Kennedy, John Kerry and Chris Dodd will move heaven and earth this upcoming week to put Bolton out of a job!

You see, Bolton's recess appointment to the U.N. expires when Congress adjourns. And, make no mistake, Senate liberals are going to work overtime to deny Bolton a fair up-or-down vote on his confirmation -- a step needed to keep John Bolton at the U.N. where he has proven he will stand up to the hate-America crowd that controls the world body.

In fact Senator Chris Dodd, when asked recently on CNN whether he would support John Bolton, said,
"No, this is going to be a bruising fight... "

We can't let that happen! There's simply too much at stake!

Liberals in the Senate have successfully blocked a vote on John Bolton's appointment as Ambassador to the United Nations for years and forced President Bush to use his recess appointment authority to TEMPORARILY put him on the job.

This temporary appointment will EXPIRE SOON and Senate liberals will move heaven and earth to BLOCK HIS APPOINTMENT YET AGAIN during a hearing this week.

While there is still a United States presence in the United Nations -- John Bolton is one of our MOST EFFECTIVE WEAPONS AGAINST WORLD-WIDE TERRORISM!
