I mean, how is that acceptable?

We would like to know on our committee if you can get us an answer.

This is I think frustrating for us.

It just has not actually done the job, and it has not met the obligations.

I support that. I wonder, though, would that require a change of statute, or does he think he can do that through the regulations?

I think that, as government expands, we're going to continue to have these conflicts.

What is your basis for that?

The U.N. has really become a forum for anti-Israel activism and ganging up, in effect, on the world's only Jewish State.
