The UN Security Council fails to pass a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza on the same day Israel's Prime Minister vowed to send troops into Rafah without US support if necessary.
They’re not the same: which horse does either Russia or China have in the race?
US vetoed resolutions that were unfair to Israel or simply that Israel wouldn’t accept. You may not like this support of Israel but it it’s there
Russia and China do not have an interest in either side. They do not strongly support either. They do not care about either, and they certainly do not care about human rights. This is just to say “ha ha, US didn’t get this done”, and so patsies online can say “derp, both same”
Unfair to israel? We really shouldn’t care about israel’s feelings when they’re committing outright genocide. You may not like the idea of the US being as bad as China or Russia, but in this case the US is actually worse since it’s actively supporting and funding this genocide. Throwing together a different resolution that gives israel leeway to continue their genocide but slightly altered is just to say “look, we tried” and so patsies online can say “derp, US are the good guys”
Not what I said. Regardless of any of our opinions onions this is not happening unless both sides agree, including Israel. Again, regardless of our opinions, US support of Israel makes it more likely to get at least them to agree.
There’s no “both sides the same”, since China and Russia don’t have a resort, they’re likely doing it for spite. Again, regardless of our opinion, US supports a side and hopefully has influence for the side, and Russia/China don’t, just want to stir up shit
