Israel took no steps to comply with a Security Council call to stop all settlement activity in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, and instead authorized “a high rate” of settlement expansions in violation of international law, the United Nations said Friday.

U.N. envoy Nickolay Mladenov told the council the large number of settlement announcements and legislation action by Israel indicate “a clear intent to continue expanding the settlement enterprise in the occupied Palestinian territory.” […]

Mladenov, the U.N. special coordinator for the Middle East peace process, reiterated that the United Nations “considers all settlement activities to be illegal under international law and one of the main obstacles to peace.” …

The UN has been flipping off Israel for decades.

And Israel is supposed to care about UN idiocy?

The freedom-hating, rapists at the UN have got to go. The UN is one of the greatest threats to American national security and women all over the world.

“...in violation of international law...”

______________________________________________________

Is the U.N. the “federal government” of the world? It’s amazing how many people tell me that the U.N. really isn’t a “world government” since its resolutions require an almost Confederation like agreement between nations, but it sure seems like the U.S. has been expected to be an “executive branch” for this organization (effectively enforcing its rule around the globe).

The resolution didn't impose sanctions on Israel, so the council isn't called on to take any action. But it does enshrine the world's disapproval of the settlements.

If you go to any Wikipedia page for an Israeli "settlement", you will be told:

"The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this."

This "international community" is the ubiquitous "they" that dictates without any authority or accountability whatsoever. Only that "they say".

meanwhile while we await shutting the UN down for good,
it needs to be REMOVED from USA....
it is a horrendous disgrace that the UnitedNazis are permitted to remain in USA, it is also a major security breach as thousands of “UN employees and aides,” including numerous enemy spies are permitted to enter and “work” in New York City ...

We’ll never get out of the UN. Hell, Israel is still a member.

How dumb is THAT?

They should take the UN building in NYC and use it for thousands of their favorite “refugees and migrants” ... at least it would operate as a proper slum.

The U. N. sure has a high opinion of itself.
