Just days after threatening to withdraw the US from the UN Human Rights Council over its sick obsession with Israel, Ambassador Nikki Haley landed in the Jewish state yesterday, where she was warmly welcomed.
Haley is in the country for three days, during which time she will meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Reuven Rivlin. She will also visit the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial in Jerusalem and tour Israel’s northern and southern borders.
Haley’s colleague, Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon, will accompany her throughout the visit.
Haley is perhaps the most outspoken supporter of Israel in a Trump Administration that boasts not a few lovers of the Jewish state.
As Haley arrived yesterday, Danon told her: “We are honored to welcome you to our country and thank you for standing resolutely by our side. We look forward to showing you our beautiful country as we work together to further strengthen our alliance.”
