US vetoes widely supported UN resolution backing full UN membership for Palestine

  • I would be super curious to know the senior US politicians like if they could speak without pressure on them and zero chance of reprisal... what the fuck are they doing here? This is the most obviously unsustainable suicide pact perhaps ever in history. At this point it would almost be more sane for the US to just unilaterally invade and take over Israel and rule it officially, and allow the Palestinians a state as well. Obviously that's insane but the days of Israel doing whatever it wants are ending or Israel will end... this seems so painfully obvious to everyone except those in power who are deluded or scared or whatever into thinking that every decision like this, acting as if it's 1992 forever, further pushes the rest of the world into solidarity against the US. Seems "kinda bad" from a "keeping the US in a strong position into the future" standpoint. They're so incompetent they can't even do imperialism correctly
