These resolutions are designed to make some countries look bad. Somewhere in the small print there’s a point unacceptable for the US and Israel, so they vote against and newspapers world-wide can report on how US and Israel alone blocked the end of famine.
Mostly on Mastodon, but trying out Lemmy and enjoying it a lot.

bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•'Fear shouldn't dictate Jewish life,' Berlin rabbi saysEnglish1·18 days agoYou’re justifying harassing Jews for being Jews.
Think about that.

bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•'Fear shouldn't dictate Jewish life,' Berlin rabbi saysEnglish52·25 days agoSo its ok to require the same from Muslims everytime a terrorist attack happens or everytime a Muslim country sponsors genocide (like the UAE is doing in Sudan)?

bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Craven Europeans give US and Israel a blank check for illegal warEnglish2·1 month agoIf China is not global, neither is the US. No one touches each other’s “backyards”. The US had a treaty obligation to defend Ukraine from Russia and never did it (provide some weapons is not the same as actively defending a country).
bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Craven Europeans give US and Israel a blank check for illegal warEnglish1·1 month agoSure, but don’t expect me to do any pressure to our politicians about standing for international law with a regime that would love to kill us and is helping to kill Ukrainians everyday. Not my war, washing my hands like Pilate.
bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Craven Europeans give US and Israel a blank check for illegal warEnglish21·1 month agoWe should, unfortunately we’ve been alone with that for too long. The world didn’t care when Ukraine was invaded… the international law is dead since then.
bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Craven Europeans give US and Israel a blank check for illegal warEnglish31·1 month agoOh I missed the part where Russia’s allies critized their invasion of Ukraine. It’s not, not only there’s a growing rival, China, you have more mid-powers than ever before, from Pakistan and India, to Turkey or even Ethiopia.
bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Craven Europeans give US and Israel a blank check for illegal warEnglish4·1 month agoIt’s not 1945 anymore, for long that the us is not hegemon, its relative power is smaller every year.
bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Craven Europeans give US and Israel a blank check for illegal warEnglish61·1 month agoBut who’s following the rules? Not Russia, not Iran, not Azerbaijan, not Sudan, not Rwanda, not Ethiopia… And the list goes on. This is not new. The question is more, why would the US follow them if no one else does and there’s no consequence?
bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Craven Europeans give US and Israel a blank check for illegal warEnglish111·1 month agoGentle reminder that Iran was helping Russia to attack Ukraine and never showed any interest in international law or human rights. Why should we care? I most definitely don’t. Hope their fascist regime crumbles as fast as possible.
bossito@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•French politician told a group of Russians: "My party will make sure Ukraine can never join NATO or the European Union. NATO is a military alliance just seeking trouble"English81·1 month agoOnly if you’re not paying attention to the party, they always eagerly fit into the worst clichês of far-left. Always siding with dictators, Islamic terrorists, antissemitic propaganda etc… really much more similar to the RN then they’re supporters like to admit.

Keep waiting, reading useless and pointless UN resolutions is not a hobby I have. I’m not against the UN, I think it’s a needed organization, but this kind of pointless resolutions only makes it look bad and only feeds anti-UN positions within its biggest sponsor and host: the US.
So good luck with pointless resolutions aimed at the guy paying for the circus…
