both of them were total crap

the modifications suggested to the israeli ones were good though, made it neutral

They also added references to Israeli "military assaults" and "excessive use of force".

Yeah neutral...

my point is that I would like to see an Israeli resolution brought before the SC
I'm very interested in the US reaction. The US has vetoed ALL Arab resolutions about Israel.
If the USA don't want to be seen as hypocrits they would have to veto the Israeli resolution too

I believe that the US votes and vetoes according to what they believe is right and wrong, not as a robot. Your definition of hypocrit is kinda weird. "You don't like to eat green beans, so you should not like to eat all vegetables either."

you better wake up from lalaland if you belief that

ALL SC members vote politically.

From dictionary.com politics - The art or science of government or governing, especially the governing of a political entity, such as a nation, and the administration and control of its internal and external affairs

So yes by definition all SC members vote politically, they are exercising the science of governing. However using the definition of politcs, I fail to see how the US would be bound to veto any israeli resolution simply because the Arab community has not brought any fair or reasonable resolution before the SC.
