UN Security Council

It is very possible that in the next 24 hours the UN Security Council will hold a vote to condemn us and Israel or attacking Iran and it will fail because we will veto it. However it's probable and our FORMER allies (UK, France, etc) and our FORMER(?) enemies China & Russia will vote FOR IT. Just stop and think about that for a minute.

Perhaps it's unclear that given a choice between fermented tripe and stewed bung it's possible to just say, "Yeah, I've decided to go on a fast starting 5 minutes ago."
