His Political Islam bias comes out, taking advantage of his last few weeks to order the US Representative to abstain on a UNSC resolution telling Israel what it should do on the land the previous owners, the Egyptians and Jordanians, don't want back.

Jerusalem (AFP) - Israel scrambled Saturday to contain the fallout from the UN Security Council vote to halt settlements in Palestinian territory after lashing out at US President Barack Obama over the "shameful" resolution.

The council passed the measure Friday after the United States abstained, enabling the adoption of the first UN resolution since 1979 to condemn Israel over its settlement policy.

By deciding not to veto the move, the US took a rare step that deeply angered Israel, which accused Obama of abandoning its closest Middle East ally in the waning days of his administration.

The text was passed with support from all remaining members of the 15-member council, with applause breaking out in the chamber.

Congrats, Democrats.

Meanwhile, Netanyahu looks forward to the incoming Boss:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the resolution and criticised Obama in especially harsh language.

"Israel rejects this shameful anti-Israel resolution at the UN and will not abide by its terms," read a statement from his office.

"The Obama administration not only failed to protect Israel against this gang-up at the UN, it colluded with it behind the scenes," it said.

"Israel looks forward to working with President-elect Trump and with all our friends in Congress, Republicans and Democrats alike, to negate the harmful effects of this absurd resolution."

Donald Trump won't throw Israel to the Muslim Dogs.
