U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley is throwing a party for all the countries who didn't vote against the United States on its controversial bid to recognize Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel and Canada plans to attend.
.....
After the vote, Haley tweeted a photo naming the 65 nations that either voted no, were absent or abstained, like Canada. She said: "We appreciate these countries for not falling to the irresponsible ways of the UN."
She later sent invitations to the group for a Jan. 3 reception to "thank you for your friendship to the United States."
