Don't fall for Netanyahu's petulance

How dare Netanyahu criticize our president. The United Nations looked fairly into the issue and ruled that the Israeli settlements have no legal validity. For those who cry anti-Semitism, it isn't so. Read U.N. Resolution 2334 carefully. The Security Council sternly chastises Israel, not a religion.

We Americans should support our president and secretary of state rather than yield to the petulant Netanyahu, who ignores the illegality and unwise building of the settlements. We should also consider helping the Illinois economy by having the Caterpillar company in Peoria send bulldozers to demolish the illegal construction.
