Why does the United Nations focus its animosity on Israel alone?

Why does the United Nations focus its animosity on Israel alone?

Because of the Jews.

[BenF]

fyi

[BenF]

Not just the UN....

[Free the USA]

In how many of the places listed would the population vote to secede if they could? I see some of each on the list.

India occupies: Kashmir

Why isn't Pakistan mentioned?

[friendly]

Your listing is almost totally bogus.

[Demidog]

You forgot that the US occupies Iraq, Cuba, Bosnia, Haiti, Europe, the Phillipines, Guam, Puerto Rico, Columbia....

And yet the US considers Iraq a threat....

[Demidog]

Right, because of the Jews. Nevermind that it was the UN that recognized Israel and resolved that it was a nation. They must be anti-Semitic.

[neutrino]

Bump for the truth!

[Cicero]

Any day now we'll be hearing from the South Talpatty Liberation Front.

[Consort]

Yes, Kashmir is occupied as Azad Kashmir (Pakistan) and Jammu and Kashmir (India).

[dennisw]

btttttttttttttt

[Consort]

You left out American Samoa, Northern Mariana Islands, Virgin Islands....

[Demidog]

There's too many to list actually....sad.

[Consort]

British India also occupied Kashmir.

Stop acting like you don't know the difference between occupation and help! That's the case with most of the examples you listed.

I am from a country that was listed in the article above, and we sure did not look upon the US as occupiers when they tried to help us. You can play politics all you want by acting dumb but to someone who saw real occupation, it's no laughing matter. I wouldn't care what you say, except there's way too many like you who say things that really do give aid and confort to the enemy simply by your moral equivalence.

[Consort]

I think we also occupy The Federal States of Micronesia and Republic of Palau.

[Guillermo]

Oh yes, we can go on and on about the Evil American Imperialists.

Get a life, you provincial fool.

[gcruse]

England occupies Ireland? Your geography book needs updating.
Also, Quebec is no more occupied by Canada than Utah is by the US. What a load of crapola.

"You left out American Samoa, Northern Mariana Islands, Virgin Islands...."

Not to mention Hawaii. And Utah, too, I suppose...
