Netanyahu thanks Ambassador Haley for US veto
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded to the US veto of a UN Security Council resolution calling for the rescinding of the US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
Netanyahu thanked the American ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley: "On Hanukkah you spoke like a Maccabee, you lit the light of truth and expelled the darkness. One triumphs over many; truth triumphed over falsehood. Thank you President Trump, thank you Nikki Haley," Netanyahu said, taking a page out of the Hanukkah book.
