Netanyahu Slams U.N. for Giving Ahmadinejad Forum: 'Have You No Shame?'
"The man who called the Holocaust a lie spoke at this podium. To those who refused to come and to those who left in protest, I commend you.

Obama Sets Goal to Disarm America
With President Barack Obama presiding over a historic session, the U.N. Security Council unanimously approved a U.S.-sponsored resolution Thursday committing all nations to work for a nuclear weapons-free world.
Russia, China and developing nations supported the measure, giving it global clout and strong political backing.
The resolution calls for stepped up efforts to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, promote disarmament and "reduce the risk of nuclear terrorism." It calls for better security for nuclear weapons materials and underscores the Security Council's intention to take action if such material or nuclear weapons get into the hands of terrorists.
