Since 2011 he has been criticising the UN for its stance on Israel the UN has long been accused of an anti Israel bias, and Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, used his speech at the General Assembly in September to point out that in 2015 the General Assembly passed 20 resolutions against Israel, and a grand total of three resolutions against all the other countries on the planet. Mr Trump said in September 2011 he was increasingly concerned with the UN's ploy against @Israel this coming week and will monitor all events closely from Australia.

Psalm 2 : UN The accomplishing Prophecy NIV 1 Why do the nations conspire[a] and the peoples plot in vain? 2 The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed, saying, 3 Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles. 4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them. 8 Ask me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession. 9 You will break them with a rod of iron[b]; you will dash them to pieces like pottery. 10 Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth. 11 Serve the Lord with fear and celebrate his rule with trembling. 12 Kiss his son, or he will be angry and your way will lead to your destruction, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
