The United States abstention on the anti-Israel United Nations Security Council resolution is not only an unwise move on substance, but it also merely inflames tensions instead of advancing peace in the region. Israel is one of our country's greatest allies and we have a long tradition of showing our support at the United Nations. I am deeply disappointed by the lack of action by the United States.
