We are reminded of this every time we open the newspaper or social media, where we can see evidence of Washington funding agendas contrary to our own. But a truly astonishing example of our misplaced funding was on clear display last week, when a U.N. amendment condemning Hamas for its deadly, brutal attacks on the Jewish people failed to receive a two-thirds majority. 55 countries voted against the resolution, while 23 abstained. And the United Nations General Assembly applauded.

This is no surprise to those who have followed the U.N.'s long record of blatantly ignoring the "human rights" they claim to champion through their Council dedicated to that cause. And yet, the United States is the largest donor to the United Nations. U.S. taxpayers fund over 20 percent on average of the U.N.'s budget every year to support policies and actions that do not align with our own.
