  1. It doesn’t matter unless they can get the USA to acquiesce, which won’t happen.

    What are they gonna do? Fire on US ships and shoot down U.S. planes?

  2. and the same UN didnt move a finger when Hezbollah launched thousands of rockets since october 8th, completely unprovoked

  3. Yes, the UN with iran at the head of womam right? The same UN that denied covid the first few months?

    The UN is not a serious organization and the free world should stop funding and hosting it.

  5. I think the UN would be more respected if it wouldn’t pretend to matter with the resolutions that nobody cares about.

  6. As another user already mentioned, proposal is moot unless US also agree to it and not to mention US provide big chunk of UN operating expenses as well as location.

    UN can move from NY to say, Switzerland but who can finance it?

  7. This just shows how utterly worthless the UN has become. US and her Allies need to completely pull funding from it as it’s a waste of money

  8. *Behold the field in which I grow my fucks. Lay thine eyes upon it and see that it is barren.*

    UN hasn’t been fair to Israel since they accidentaly allowed Jews to have a home.

  9. Serious question, why is Europe going along with this? I thought Germany in particular was in favor of Israel being able to defend itself, or at least not ceasing to exist. A trade embargo with Israel would (iiuc) result in Israel being bombed to oblivion pretty quickly.

  10. Mere formality. Then they can go back to clinking wine glasses, because let’s be serious the US is the only arms supplier that would shake Israel to the core if they cut off supply.

  11. Ah, the United anti africa and israel Nation. So much legitimacy. Never letting a good unbiased voting go to waste. (pukes)

  12. It won’t change anything; even the Security Council won’t be able to act. First, war is one of the most profitable situations and a prime money-making opportunity. Second, they aren’t banning components, and Israel can build on its own. Israel already has analogs for nearly every type of weapon and more. So for fanatics, UN move is good, for those who know how things work it is nah useless, propaganda.

  13. No condemnation or responsibility what so ever placed on the people who started the war. A big circus vote for the media to push.

    France, Greece, Australia and Cyprus doesn’t seem to recognise Israel right to self defence.
