Calls to reform UN Security Council after US vetoes Gaza ceasefire - Lemmy.World

Calls are growing for the UN Security Council to be reformed after the US became the only member to use its veto power to block a Gaza ceasefire resolution, a move welcomed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The UN chief says he will keep pushing for peace.

Nothing changed on the UNSC when Russia vetoed the resolution to leave Ukraine.

I’m not educated enough to say which is a “worse” violation of the principles the UN stands for, but I’ll go out on a limb and say nothing will change this time, either.

Genocide is obviously worse than annexation. One just wants the land, the other wants to kill everyone on it too. Israel is far more evil than Russia.

That said nothing will change indeed.

Russia is committing genocide. They’re both evil. Israel has been doing it for longer and is better at it.

Russia is not out to kill all Ukrainians. They are annexing (stealing) land. They want land and then want to assimilate the Ukrainians into their country. (which is bad I’m not condoning Russia here)

Israel wants to kill all the people living on the land and replace them with their own race.

This is not nearly the same

“Forced assimilation” is one way to commit genocide. Another is through holocaust. The Holocaust happened to be genocide via holocaust. Giza happens to be genocide via holocaust. The definition of genocide doesn’t require it be committed via holocaust.

Giza happens to be genocide via holocaust. The definition of genocide doesn’t require it be committed via holocaust.

The Pharoah must step in!

And the award for the clueless, most unnecessary joke, goes to you. You do understand that not everything requires a shitty take at humor? Your comment brings nothing to the thread, OP has already fixed their mistake. Why are you here?
