Ah yes, because we've all forgotten that time 3 Jewish hostages with their hands up, shirts off, and waving a white flag, were gunned down by Israel's military.

What does "surrender" mean when the current occupiers are killing everything that moves?

I am SO tired of this shit. "Waaah you aren't condemning Hamas hard enough!!!" My god just shut the fuck up already. I can't tell anymore which ones of these people are just stupid and which ones are being disingenuous. I swear to god these people will accuse anyone of antisemitism if they aren't starting every single fucking sentence with an "I condemn Hamas" disclaimer.

I think they need to add check boxes to all future UN resolutions just to keep America happy.

□ we condemn Hamas

□ we condemn the act of terror on October 7th

Can we pass a meaningful resolution now please

No because according to so many Isreal supporters and their government UN is just hamas

They are all puppets to the lord and savior called "Profits". Don't think about anything else, follow the money trail.

Skeletor out.

Blinken is an idiot but he doesn’t know it. It is just us suffering from his idiocy.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


A vote on the resolution was pushed for a third time this week as countries work to bring the US – one of the five permanent members on the council with the power to sink a deal with a veto – on board.

The delay underscored the Biden administration’s hesitancy to sign onto a resolution that could be interpreted as a rebuke of Israel’s continuing military campaign against Hamas in Gaza.

The US has vetoed previous measures at the UNSC and voted against a call for a ceasefire in the larger UN General Assembly earlier this month.

But the mounting civilian death toll in Gaza from Israel’s response has prompted top US officials, including President Joe Biden, to urge Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to take more meaningful steps to protect innocent lives while waging his war against Hamas.

The secretary acknowledged “the last couple of months have been gut-wrenching when you see the suffering of men, women, and especially children in Gaza,” and the administration, he said, has focused on “doing everything possible to minimize the harm to those who are caught in a crossfire of Hamas’ making.”

CNN’s Becky Anderson, Michael Williams, Kevin Liptak and Jennifer Deaton contributed to this report.

Bitch, the rest of the world is more likely to send them defence packages with Iron Dome than to tell them to lay down to be genocided by the Israelis.

Nobody is left to support Israel besides the US. Read the room.
