In its first meeting on the Palestinian question, since a landmark resolution demanding Israel halt its settlement activity in occupied territory late in 2016. The Security Council has received a firm rebuke from Israel's envoy who labeled the Council's action, as inspiration for terror. Ambassador Danon sited the Palestinian truck attack on soldiers in Jerusalem last week, that killed four while injuring dozens more, one among a host of examples, while announcing the suspension of six million dollars from its annual contribution to the UN, for 2017.
