Haley slams anti-Israel UNESCO vote that would designate historical sites as 'in danger'

This Washington Free Beacon article is by Reporter Adam Kredo, from 3 July 2017.

Here is the lede plus one:

The Trump administration is taking aim at a United Nations body that is trying to deny Israel's sovereignty over holy sites in Jerusalem and the West Bank, according to a letter by U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) is set to vote this week on a resolution proclaiming that Israel has no sovereignty over Jerusalem, its capital city, and a holy site located in Hebron, which is part of the West Bank.

Comment from Writer Sarah Hoyt:

BUT THEY TOLD ME HE WAS ANTI-SEMITE!  IS HE THAT BAD AT IT?

There are those who keep complaining about President Trump being this and that, but he just keeps plowing ahead trying to make this a better Nation and a better world.
