Gov. Tim Pawlenty reacts to US rebuke of Israel at the UN

Last night, word broke that the US had sold out Israel on the settlements issue at the UN. Gov. Tim Pawlenty reacts this morning:

“The Obama administration has shown an astonishing unwillingness to stand by Israel at the United Nations, an organization with a long history of blaming Israel for just about every problem in the Middle East.  It’s time for our UN ambassador to finally show some leadership, draw a line in the sand, and defend our historic ally.  Global stability depends more than ever on a respected America that is loyal to our allies and realistic about the malice of our adversaries.”
