United Nations demands humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza
Reuters ^

Posted on 12/12/2023 1:46:04 PM PST by navysealdad

The United Nations on Tuesday demanded an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war after more than three-quarters of the 193-member General Assembly backed the move, which had been vetoed by the United States in the Security Council last week.

Washington does not have a veto in the General Assembly. It voted against the draft resolution, along with Israel and eight other countries. The text garnered 153 votes in favor, while 23 countries abstained from the vote.

War as hell.

They'll send Greta Thunberg to Israel to tell Netanyahu, “How dare you!”.

So what? What are these “Yes voters” going to do about Israel ignoring this retarded decree? Nothing, that's what.

They can piss and moan about it all they want, but the Jews are basically saying Go Eff Yourselves, and rightly so.

The Jewish hating countries are showing their hand, and that's a good thing as I always say, because having your enemies out themselves is always a good thing.

The only people crying for an end to Hamas being eradicated are those who want the status quo to remain, which means we keep going through this absurd cycle until the Jew hating countries get their way and Israel is eradicated.

The world needs its ass kicked, IMO.

Indeed you don’t make deals with terrorists you kill them because they never stop being terrorists.

Shut the door on this failed waste of taxpayers’ money. Unless, and not until, they acknowledge and condemn the bloody genocidal atrocity Hamas perpetrated in Israel on Oct 7th, they should be shunned by all civilized nations. Will this ever happen? I think we may be closer to this result than ever before.

Yes, why should Israel listen to an organization that once had a real Nazi in Kurt Waldheim as its head?

The member nations that voted to demand a ceasefire need to step away from the bong-the last ceasefire was broken by Hamas-as was the one before that one, and the one before, etc, etc-the UN has been a useless debate club since day one-the US needs to quit the UN and put them out of their fancy buildings in NY-let them go someplace else-I’m sure all that empty spaces will be useful for offices, apts, businesses, etc in NYC-maybe some of the money they spent can be made back...
