• the US has been the biggest hurdle to Palestinian membership of the UN, and has used its veto power 42 times
• This US action is utterly unjust, because Palestine could at least have been accepted as an 'observer member', as has been done for the Vatican.
• France is also supporting an 'observer member' status for Palestine."
• It has also shown how Obama is identical to Bush, despite calling himself a friend of the Muslim world."
