UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) voted 107 to 14 to admit Palestine. Israel, the USA and Canadian voted against. This is hypocritical since all three countries are on record as supporting Palestinian statehood. In a fit of pique, the USA then announced it would stop paying its dues to UNESCO. It reminds me of a bratty kid who would take his football home if the ref ever ruled against his team.
