Israel-Gaza crisis: US vetoes Security Council resolution

[toomuchtime_]

18 October 2023Peace and Security
The United States on Wednesday vetoed a UN Security Council resolution that would have called for “humanitarian pauses” to deliver lifesaving aid to millions in Gaza. The failure by the Council to make its first public intervention on the Israel-Gaza crisis followed the rejection of a Russian-backed draft on Monday evening.

While 12 of the Council’s 15 members voted in favour of the Brazilian-led text, one (United States) voted against, and two (Russia, and the United Kingdom) abstained.

A ‘no’ vote from any one of the five permanent members of the Council stops action on any measure put before it. The body’s permanent members are China, France, Russian Federation, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

You know you really remove any doubt of your stupidity when you quote nonsense. I think you meant Hamas delenda est. "Hamas must be destroyed"

I wanted to see if someone would bite. And you did! Yes, Hamas must be destroyed, but you don't agree. Why?

See, you're doing it again. Maybe you should research before you assume.
