What Should the U.S. do?

The Israeli Palestinian conflict has been going on for many years. President Obama has a huge decision to make. Although the chances are slim, I believe the United States should vote in Palestine’s favor. The U.S. should not abuse its power of being a permanent member in the United Nations. The majority of the world wants Palestine to become a sovereign state, and Obama needs to take that into consideration. Even though for Obama that could mean not getting elected for a second term. Either way there are going to be consequences. We have very close ties with Israel and if we do not stand by them in this they are most likely going to fight back. Most Arab nations already have strong aggression towards us, and if we vote in Israel’s favor they are going to have even stronger aggression towards us. We should accept the consequences and do what is morally right.
