Fair, I shouldn't have speculated like that. However, my argument is that the whole vote was a charade. If China knew the US was going to veto this, then their vote is meaningless.

    This isn't the security council, or anywhere else, where the U.S. has veto rights. This (the Third Committee) seems to run on "majority yes" voting (i.e. if enough vote yes, it is adopted).
