The UN: at the vanguard of the resistance to the global jihad

Just kidding. The fact that a state like Algeria could block something like this is just one indication of just how deeply dysfunctional the UN is. "Algeria vetoes U.N. anti-terror statement," from [1] Ynet News, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:

The U.N. Security Council did not issue a statement condemning Monday's terror attack in Netanya, after it failed to agree on a version due to Algeria's objection to the proposed wording.

Algeria is not a permanent member of the council, but is currently participating in its meeting as a representative of the Arab countries.

The original version of the statement, drafter by the United States, included a harsh denouncement of the bombing, and a demand of Syria to close down the Islamic Jihad offices in Damascus.

However, Algeria refused to fall in line with the other member states and sign the statement.
