My Way News - Israel asks UN to reject Palestinian attempt to raise flag
My Way News reports: "Israel on Tuesday urged U.N. leaders to reject a Palestinian attempt to raise their flag at U.N. headquarters as early as this month's gathering of world leaders there. [...] The Palestinians are seeking General Assembly approval of a draft resolution that would allow non-member observer states to raise their flags. [...] Several nations have shown support for the Palestinians' pursuit of statehood, including the Vatican. In May, the Vatican officially recognized the state of Palestine with a bilateral treaty. [...] The United States, Israel's closest ally, opposed the Palestinian move."
