US Threatens To Veto UN Resolution On Rape As Weapon Of War, Officials Say by Nobody: 9:08am On Apr 23, 2019
For the america asslickers.. Here is your god's own country telling the world that RAPE is acceptable...

The US is threatening to veto a United Nations resolution on combatting the use of rape as a weapon of war because of its language on reproductive and sexual health, according to a senior UN official and European diplomats.

"We are not even sure whether we are having the resolution tomorrow, because of the threats of a veto from the US," Pramila Patten, the UN special representative on sexual violence in conflict, told the Guardian.

In cases of disagreement in the security council, member states often fall back on previously agreed text, but the US has made it clear it would no longer accept language from a 2013 resolution on sexual violence.
