Lieberman satisfied with UN vote on Goldstone
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman expressed his satisfaction Friday with the results of the United Nations General Assembly vote on a report which accuses Israel of committing war crimes in Gaza. "On the whole, we are satisfied with the fact that 18 countries, which are a moral majority, supported Israel's stance and 44 abstained and did not vote with the automatic majority," he said.
The General Assembly on Thursday night endorsed the Goldstone Report and called on the UN secretary-general to transmit the report to the Security Council. The resolution, which was backed by 114 countries, was later rejected by Israel as being "detached from reality". (Roni Sofer)
