    Default U.S. Will Oppose U.N. Human Rights Council’s ‘Disproportionate’ Attention On Israel -

    We'll see

    October 14, 2021
    WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The United States has concerns with the United Nations Human Rights Council and will oppose its “disproportionate” attention on Israel, State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters on Thursday after the U.S. was elected back to the council.
    “We have concerns with the council. We will vigorously oppose the council’s disproportionate attention on Israel, which includes the council’s only standing agenda item targeting a single country,” Price said, adding the United States will also press against the election of countries with “egregious human rights records.”

    I want to see what "oppose" is to the FUBAR, Puppethead Admin. They're going to rent/borrow somebody's spine?

    Probably the Chief of Staff will call it a "high class" issue.
