The US on Thursday vetoed a Security Council resolution to admit the Palestinian Authority as a full member state of the United Nations.
12 countries voted in favor of the resolution: Slovenia, Sierra Leone, Russia, South Korea, Mozambique, Malta, Japan, Guyana, France, Ecuador, China, and Algeria.
Two countries abstained – Britain and Switzerland.
Foreign Minister Israel Katz said following the vote, “The proposal to recognize a Palestinian state, more than 6 months after the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust and after the sexual crimes and other atrocities committed by Hamas terrorists was a reward for terrorism.”
“I commend the United States for vetoing this shameful proposal, which was rejected today at the UN Security Council. It is outrageous that even half a year after the October 7 massacre, the UN Security Council failed to condemn Hamas horrific crimes,” Katz said.
“Terrorism will not be rewarded. Israel will continue to fight until Hamas is destroyed and all 133 hostages in Gaza are released,” he concluded.

One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. And Hamas is fighting freedom tooth and nail.

That should never have been tabled for actual discussion.
They would be 20 times more greedy than the Ukrainians.

I would still like to see the UN booted out of the USA, but let’s face it, they are almost one and same now.

Hamas is not just fighting freedom. It’s fighting against human rights. It’s literally a Nazi regime that works for genocide of the Jews.

The Ham Ass supporters in Michigan and Minnesota won’t be happy with Traitor Joe. They’ll vote for Cornel West, who recently chose a Ham Ass sympathizing female prof. as running mate.

Many RAT states are actually busy signing foreign deals, in the name of the Climate Cult. Kalifornicatia is ahead of everyone in that race.

Regarding a terrorist mass murder gang is not a success strategy. Nor does it pass Basic Morality 100.
Also, they’d need to find a location for their new terror state. It won’t be permitted anywhere in or nearby Israel. Even the home countries for the Fakestinian Arabs (Egypt, Arabia,…) don’t want them back
Perhaps some isolated island with naval and air patrols watching it closely to protect the civilized world from them?

I was surprised, although perhaps I should not have been.
Among the 12 countries voting in favor of the resolution: Japan and France and the abstentions, Britain and Switzerland.
Aren't these countries our pals? (Okay, France, maybe not so much.)

I totally agree.
Sadly the Gazans can’t quite grasp what Hamas brought down
on them. Instead they blame Israel.
They are the Keystone Victims.

How about Qatar. They can stay at luxury hotels, have sex slaves on call, and eat sumptuous feasts, just like their “leaders”.

Intimidated by crazy non-Asians, and don’t want them attacking the sacred land of Japan and the good part of Korea.
Funny how Israel has never been invited to join the UNSC, but all they ever do is discuss the fate of Israel.
