    I also thought it was about Israël and Palestine. You are absolutely right, also the 3 noes didn’t help. For anyone that doesn’t know

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khartoum_Resolution

    At some point the Arabic countries said

    No peace with Israel, No negotiation with Israel, No recognition of Israel

    This really didn’t help at all and basically made the conflict much worse to resolve.

      Thanks for the link, I didn’t know that. There’s also the first “no” which was the Arabs saying no to the UN partition plan of mandatory Palestine.

      It reminds me of the buzz on twitter last year about “how much land should Ukraine cede to Russia in exchange for peace” and the general concensus there was also “no”.
