Negroponte doctrine
On July 26 2002, John Negroponte, the United States Ambassador to the United Nations, stated (during a closed meeting of the UN Security Council) that the United States will oppose Security Council resolutions that condemn Israel without also condemning terrorist groups (and so are one-sided and biased from the US government point of view). This has come to be known as the Negroponte doctrine, and is viewed by the United States as a counterweight to the frequent resolutions denouncing Israel which are passed by the UN General Assembly.
