| Nov 18, 2016 at 14:36 | comment | added | SJuan76 | To be fair, an Israeli politician stating that UN resolutions against Israel are unfair and baseless is not much of a proof of anything (and yes, you may change Israel for Iran, USA, Russia, China, Sweden, etc. at will). Of course, unless it was not rethoric and Algeria did in fact introduce such a resolution. | |
