Yup. International Politics is like sex. Sometimes it's done nicely with flowers, candles, and sweet nothings. Sometimes it's thrust up the fudge tunnel with no warning or vaseline.
Mind, I have to say; would it REALLY have been that difficult to change the resolution to also condemn the inevitable revenge attacks from Hamas? That would have removed any excuse for the veto.

I agree but they Veto everything when they don't get their own way.
I remember they slated France/Russia with the Iraq issue last year. Each had used it about 5-10 times in the last few decades whilst Amereica's list was endless.

I think if they were going to do anything, they should have abstained(sp?) like the UK did. They couldn't have criticised Israel for killing a Terrorist Cell leader, that would be even more hypocritical(sp?) than they already are, but they didn't need to Veto it.

Seems fair.
