Nikki Haley: Canada Struck Deal with Devil when they went Against Israel at UN

Speaking at UN Watch’s Inaugural NY Gala Dinner last week, Trump’s former UN ambassador Nikki Haley commented on Canada’s recent decision to back a North Korean anti-Israel motion. The vote, which has been unprecedented in Ottowa for 14 years was a resolution in favor of the “right of the Palestinian people to self-determination”. This includes calling both the WEstern Wall and the Temple Mount ‘Palestinian’.

Noting that Canada has never voted against Israel at the UN in such a manner before, the former ambassador noted that Canada has been historically “balanced and fair towards Israel at the United Nations”. Haley then explained that Ottowa sold out Israel for seats that they are seeking on the UN Security council adding that: “I speak from experience when I say the United Nations presents many such opportunities to strike a deal with the devil.”

The videotaped exerpt from her keynote address at the event is as follows:

It’s just easier not to rock the boat. When the crowd is all going one way, it’s hard to be the only one going the other direction. But standing alone on behalf of American interests and values is not something to be embarrassed about. Standing alone for freedom and human dignity is something to be proud of. In America, we don’t celebrate the mob. We celebrate the person who has the courage and conviction to stand up to the mob. Now we’re seeing an example of this cultural corruption playing out in real time. Canada has for a long time been balanced and fair-minded towards Israel at the United Nations. It has opposed the pull of the anti-Israel culture. But Canada is now seeking one of the rotating two-year seats on the Security Council. It faces a vote in the General Assembly. Two weeks ago, Canada surprised Israel’s friends by voting for a North Korean resolution that challenges the legitimacy of Israel. This is a resolution that Canadian governments for years have voted against. One observer said Canada is making a “Faustian bargain,” trading its integrity for a seat on the Security Council. I speak from experience when I say the United Nations presents many such opportunities to strike a deal with the devil. Standing up for our principles, and our allies, is a constant struggle, which is another reason why I am so grateful to UN Watch.”
