The keyword here is Ultra Orthodox and not simply Orthodox.

Thus they would simply fly back to the US and end up back on the NY welfare system where most of the Ultra Orthodox originally came from.

I thought the general practice was America gets to boss little countries around. Little countries don't tell America what to do.

Here's Bernie Sanders talking to people who are actually anti-Israel:

Bernie Sanders actually lived in Israel for several years. He may be more familiar with Israel than any other current senator. He got into politics by a suggestion of an Orthodox Jewish friend.

It's crazy on display by the UN, and the left who seem to gravitate toward anything crazy.
The UN created Israel, so if Israel thinks that UN is ugly and unfair then why not withdrawing !!
Israel has never respected UN resolutions and wants Iran to abide by UN resolutions.
If Israel is not happy with the UN resolutions, it needs to withdraw from the UN, that's all !!

Good point but I'm afraid that's enough for the war-mongers , he's still going to be anti-Semitic for the haters !!

I love the boycott. It is a nail in the coffin for the Democrats.

Why do liberals have their panties in such a bunch over this? Congress hosts foreign heads of state fairly regularly. Calderone spoke a couple years ago...and spent the whole speech attacking the United States and promoting criminal acts.
