UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The United States vetoed a United Nations resolution Friday backed by almost all other Security Council members and dozens of other nations demanding an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza. Supporters called it a terrible day and warned of more civilian deaths and destruction as the war goes into its third month.

The vote in the 15-member council was 13-1, with the United Kingdom abstaining. The United States' isolated stand reflected a growing fracture between Washington and some of its closest allies over Israel's monthslong bombardment of Gaza. France and Japan were among those supporting the call for a cease-fire.

Thank God America vetoed.
Israel is on the verge of decapitating the hydra in Gaza once and for all. There will never be another opportunity.
The moment is now.

Absolutely. The UN is a shameful organisation protecting the scum of the planet. The UN head quartes in NYC is a good thing for business though. UN-people going to hotels, restaurants, do shopping, etc...
But beyond that, forget it.

How about the UN condemning the islamofascistnazis?

Instead of the river to the sea, how about confronting the democRATS, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, etc with:

There is no room for thee.

Israel is finally demonstrating what should be done. You hate, you kill, you die. No more cease fires, no more weakness whatsoever. After Gaza, Hezbollah should be next.

The so-called Palestinians have lived in every country around Israel, and each of those countries had to use violence to remove them. Like Arafat before them, they gather billions of dollars for themselves. The current ‘leader’ of the PLO, Abbas, was Arafat’s banker. The Hamas billionaires live no where near hostilities, and at the same time urging elimination of every Jew.

The islamofascistnazis have a saying: first the Saturday people, then the Sunday people. First eliminate the Jews, then eliminate the Christians.

Would this suggest that Obama is actually NOT pulling Biden’s strings???

Or does Obama answer to a higher power?

They live today in UNWRA camps in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, denied citizenship in their host countries for generations. That problem will have to be resolved. Surely liberals don’t want them expelled from their homes, they’ll have to be granted citizenship.

Israel should tell the UN to kiss their backside and as long as there is even one hostage unreturned there should be not even a snowballs chance for a ceasefire. The UN does not really care about Gaza civilians, they are just afraid that Israel will be successful in putting an end to their buddies, a.k.a. their terrorist supporters in Hanas and Iran. If Trump gets reelected and does not immediately turn the UN building into an apartment complex for homeless American veterans I will be really disappointed. That is only after it has been thoroughly fumigated and disinfected of the filth that has soiled it over the years.

There was a ceasefire in place.

The “Palestinians” demanded it end on Oct 7th.

“UN should not have this kind of power”

They don’t. Until they can wave their magic wand and make terrorist groups do what they are told and then stop them without combat putting the so called civilians in danger, is when the pigs hit the ground. Terrorist groups like hamas don’t care what the UN says. And so long as the UN is being so pious by making hypocritical displays of virtue, hamas continues what they do and nothing changes.

“How many divisions does the UN have?”

None. That’s why I mentioned their magic wand. But they seem to think what they said means something to hamas. Terrorist groups don’t care what the UN says so without a magic wand, it ain’t gonna happen and people will die anyway. The UN really means something don’t they?
