U.S. Lawmakers Urge UN Action on Anti-Semitism
(VOA News) Dan Robinson - U.S. House lawmakers have overwhelmingly approved a strongly worded resolution urging the UN and member states to put an end to anti-Semitic language and political attacks against Israel. Approval comes as legislation moves forward in the House of Representatives proposing to link future U.S. contributions to the UN with reform of the world body. The resolution approved Tuesday states that the "viciousness with which Israel is attacked and discriminated at the United Nations should not be allowed to continue unchallenged."
