Three-quarters of UN members have already or soon plan to recognize Palestinian statehood, with Australia on Monday becoming the latest to promise it will at the UN General Assembly in September.
The Israel-Hamas war, raging in Gaza since the Palestinian militant group’s attack on 7 October 2023, has revived a global push for Palestinians to be given a state of their own.
The action breaks with a long-held view that Palestinians could only gain statehood as part of a negotiated peace with Israel.
According to an AFP tally, at least 145 of the 193 UN members now recognize or plan to recognize a Palestinian state, including France, Canada, and Britain. …

Primary mission of the UN is basically “screw Israel”.
UN = Organization of Islamic Nations
The big problem is thug Palestinian governments.
They had Gaza. Their state. And look what they turned it in to. Now they want to give the West Bank to them?
If they gain a State, how much of what they need will they still expect Israel to supply?
They haven’t shown that they’re capable of running a civilized state.
Good, then give the “Palistinians” their home in one of those poor unfortunate countries. Televise the results as the religion of evil, corruption, misogyny, rape, and lies does it’s cancer on them.
The UN only worked when the World War 2 combatants who won ran it. The Soviet Union ruined it when they got involved. I believe it’s days are numbered.
The UN is obviously in cahoots will Hamas who started a war, savagely killed 1200 Israelis and still hold hostages-AND torture them.
The UN is pro-islamic terrorism. Any country voting for a state for these savages is a Hamas-terrorist loving country. That includes Germany, France and pro Hamas savage-loving US democrats.
These Gaza savages need to be wiped out!
NOT rewarded.
Exactly. Time for US to pull out of UN and send it packing from NYC.
It will be.
The UN is an obsolete, old Cold War dinosaur. About all it amounts to now is a jobs program for unemployed, third world freeloading, Socialists.
the UnitedNazis needs to be given their Eviction Notice to get the H*ll out of USA!
What a slimepit!
And the building can be used for so many good things, too...
How do you account for the fact that the United Nations Charter follows the format of the Russian (USSR) Constitution of 1936 rather than the format of the (Covenant of the) League of Nations? Would you feel there was any significance in the fact that the general secretary for the organization which drew up the charter was Alger Hiss? …The UN was an obsolete abomination right from its beginning. It prolonged (and most likely caused) the Cold War by giving the USSR inordinate power on the world stage that it would not have had otherwise.

Three quarters of the UN represents Islamic countries but not one of them will accept the Palestinian people as refugees. Why is that? Could it be that the Arab nations are using the Palestinians to eliminate the Jews like the Hamas uses the Palestinian people as shields against the IDF?
It's mostly Islamic countries and the EU that are being antisemitic.
A random country such as India is not against Israel but they'll rather have the U.S. take all the heat at the UN General Assembly.
The job of the UN is keep the peace.
Does anyone seriously think the best way to do that is by recognizing Palestinian statehood?
I’m serious.
Look at post #16. The UN was never intended to keep the peace, but spread worldwide leftist revolution.
