For the record Ukraine abstained on this resolution.

So much for the Jewish President of Ukraine

The US, Croatia and Hungary among the 13 nations that sided with Israel.

I think Israel needs to flatten the U.N. building, even though I know they won’t. Bunch of jackals in the U.N.

If we throw the UN idiots out of that building, Bidenskyyyyy would have a warehouse to store his illegal aliens when they’re not voting.

I think Ukraine abstained because they recieve aid from Western Europe, not all of them may be pro-Israel.

“the General Assembly rejected an amendment to condemn Hamas and demand that it release all hostage”

So they passed the resolution to make Israel have a cease fire but the amendment to condemn Hamas fails. Why the hell can’t we kick to these scumbags out of our country?

Did the U.N. also vote to rearm Hamas during the ceasefire? Perhaps give them more rockets and help them to dig tunnels under the border?

Of the nations which “overwhelmingly” voted for the resolution:

How many?

Of them, how many were Muslim countries?

I understand Muslim countries have enough votes to control the UN.

For gung-ho supporters of Israel Zelensky looks bad tonight.

I’ve always been in that camp.

And Western Europe always were a bunch of wimps and what does that make “Blessed Ukraine”?

This is General Assembly not Security Council.

One thing worth noting it’s non-binding.

The UN needs to be relocated in Tehran.

Let the representatives of all member nations get a taste of living under repression.

Now is the time for Zelensky to sign the ceasefire. Unless he can convince the Germans to get their factories going and ramp up the war supplies to Ukraine.

45 countries have no moral clarity. Hamas, you refused to recognize your “cease fire”. Now it's Israel's turn.
