(New York Post) Eugene Kontorovich - Under the UN charter, the Security Council must authorize any new UN member-states, and it vetoed the Palestinian Authority's membership bid again just a few weeks ago. Yet, the UN may be about to bestow a diplomatic gift on the PA by conferring on it the "rights and privileges" of member states in UN forums - to make "Palestine" a UN member in all but name. Congress passed two laws in the early 1990s that ban any funding to the UN or its affiliated agencies if they give the PA member-state status. The U.S. is by far the UN's biggest contributor, paying a third of the budget. The least American taxpayers should get in return is preventing the UN's thugs and dictators from handing the privileges of UN membership to a terrorist entity that doesn't even meet the criteria for statehood. The writer is a professor at George Mason University Law School and a scholar at the Kohelet Policy Forum. 2024-05-12 00:00:00Full Article
