What about Syrian reaction I imagine there denouncing everyone who voted in favor of this resolution on Jonathan.

You you -- -- sort of predictable woods we've heard before from the Syrian ambassador to the UN.

Calling those who criticize his country among them all the Middle Eastern nations and the United States has complete hypocrites listen.

And ambassador of -- and the European and American ambassador was -- -- allow.

Only 1%.

Of armed rebellion to happen in their own respective countries.

On the rebels in Syria's largest City Hall but I'll let -- meantime back here at the UN -- -- left probe continues to run the the diplomats do nothing but fiddle.
