Kuwait Urges International Force on Gaza Border
(AP) Edith M. Lederer - A draft UN resolution circulated by Kuwait on Thursday urged the Security Council to condemn Israel's use of force against Palestinians in Gaza and to deploy an international force to protect civilians. Israel's Ambassador Danny Danon responded, "The cynicism and attempts to distort reality have reached a new low. Israel will continue to defend its sovereignty and the security of its citizens against the terror and murderous violence of Hamas. This shameful draft resolution is a proposal to support Hamas' war crimes against Israel and the residents of Gaza who are being sent to die for the sake of preserving Hamas' rule." The U.S. will very likely veto the resolution if it's put to a vote.
