But she really should be complaining about BOTH Russia and China. Those two are the ones who veto resolutions on every situation having to do with despot countries like Iran, Syria, North Korea, etc. I'm disturbed nothing is being done to help the Syrians, but I am worried about the Iran/Israel standoff. If things go wrong there, it could severely affect our election.
