Stefanik Statement on UN's Disgraceful Antisemitic Resolution Against Israel

Washington, D.C. -Congresswoman Elise Stefanik released the following statement:

"Last week, the United Nations overwhelmingly passed a disgraceful antisemitic resolution to demand that Israel surrender to barbaric terrorists who seek the destruction of both Israel and America. Once again the UN's antisemitic rot is on full display as it punishes Israel for defending itself and rewards Iranian-backed terrorists.

Instead of deplorably targeting the legitimacy of the state of Israel, the UN should be demanding that Hamas release every hostage and start enforcing UN Security Council Resolution 1701 to stop Hezbollah's endless Iranian-backed terrorist attacks. As the UN's General Assembly occurs this week in New York, the Biden-Harris Administration must call out the UN's extreme antisemitism and moral depravity and unequivocally support Israel's right to defend itself against both brutal terrorists and biased international organizations."<_o3a_p>
