Not that this makes any difference, but the very fact that the UN had to create a new agency for Palestinians was because Israel objected to them being included in the same group and under the same agency as refugees worldwide, that being UNHCR. Keeping them separate since 1948 so they would not be subject to the repatriation requirements of UNHCR. Now that Israel has demolished UNRWA, "If UNRWA were to cease functioning, these clauses [explicitly excluding Palestinian refugees] would become void, and Palestinians would fall under UNHCR’s mandate." https://www.prio.org/comments/1161
We should all be watching closely to see if that's allowed to happen.
I have been speaking up against the genacide in Gaza for a long time. I proudly wear a Kefa when in public. It both angers and breaks my heart to see what is being done to the people there. The U.S. government has been supporting Israel, with our tax dollars for many years. It really pisses me off ! If I weren’t under the poverty level I would donate. 😢
United we stand ! All I know to do is protest. I can’t stand feeling of helplessness ! I have a neighbor who just admitted to hating Muslims and praising Thump. When I told him about my dear Muslim friend (who has never met) he started going off about how,”He’s probably a rapist,cheats on his taxes…” All the things we know to be true of Trump. I told him to shut the fuck up about my friend ! I will not speak to him ever again.
What good is it to be an evil despot if they cannot rub it in the world's face? It is a win win for them. They get to feed the base the pablum they crave while while terrorizing those they hate.
I really feel that action is long overdue. The usa and israel should both be removed from the UN, and the UN should not be situated in the usa. It should be at least in a neutral country - or one that’s actually proved it has morals. Forget the ludicrous trump ‘peace,’ there should be an international force in Palestine. They should get rid of all the settlers and iaf, protect the Palestinians, make sure all the aid goes into Palestine, and protect those who rebuild the country - which should not include anyone from the usa or israel. The so-called ‘board of peace’ is a parody and an insult, and should simply not be allowed.
Agreed on all counts, Ms. Lovell. Very well said. Definitely agree about the UN being located in a neutral location, and those two nations being removed from it. The board of "peace" is, just like this sham of a "ceasefire" a total misnomer and disgrace. What kind of board of "peace" includes a war criminal actively committing genocide, and a person who encouraged and cheerlead the invasion of a nation under false pretenses, leading to the deaths of 1 million of its people? And what kind of "ceasefire" allows for daily killing, land theft, denial of humanitarian aid and destruction of humanitarian agency facilities?
It breaks my heart to acknowledge it as an American, but everything you say is true.
I can cry till I'm horse that Trump isn't *my* president, that he is doing *nothing* in my name, but the fact remains that he is the U.S. Everything he does or countenances is done and countenanced by the U.S. I can't blame the rest of the world for hating my beloved country. I hope we can get the evil cleaned up and make ourselves fit for international company again, but it's not a sure thing. Even if we can, it will take a long time.
I agree Ms. Thompson, it is truly saddening because he doesn't reflect the views, beliefs and ideas of all Americans, but the fact remains that on the world stage, people recognize what he does as being emblematic of ALL Americans, even though that isn't necessarily true. I agree, I hope we can restore our image, become the more equitable, just and prosperous (For all people) nation mentioned in the constitution and foundational documents, and become capable for international relations and law again. I agree as well that it's not certain, and could take many years, if ever.
Just like Trump....he bulldozed the WH ..with no remorse...no permits ...no WH oversight committee or historical advice .. just tore it down and sadly set the precedent to other countries, just do it ...no one does shit about it anyway . But the taxpayers foot the bills
Ahhh but they don’t know they’re making the decent people of the world hate them more. At this point of time even the birds the trees and the mountains hate them
I could not watch as my anger is an ongoing blood boiling 24/7 feeling. I truly have NEVER HATED people and a State (illegal entity) as much as I do for this gross entity and it's people. I PRAY EVERY DAY IRAN WIPES THEM OUT, PLEASE!
Okay, so I know this is never going to happen because, after all, it's Israel. But, indulge me for a moment.
When the UN opens Wednesday morning, the Secretary General should announce, as publicly as possible, that he is starting the process of expelling Israel.
Every country with diplomatic relations with Israel should announce that their embassies have started the process of closing and that Israeli diplomats and all consular staff are expelled.
Every country with commercial, cultural, sporting or any other tie with Israel should announce the immediate severance of those ties.
BTW I could only read the first few paragraphs of Shawn's article. At this point, I am angrier and more disgusted than I ever remember being before in my sixty-two years. Compared to the Palestinian Genocide, this is pretty much juvenile bullying, but it's just the final straw.
The Zionist apartheid state has proven it can do anything it wants to do. All it ever gets for its atrocities is words and, as any schoolchild knows, words will never hurt them.
In the morning, I'm going to call the Israeli consulate in Boston - presumably, there is an Israeli consulate in Boston - and give them a piece of my mind. Doing so won't change or help anything, but maybe it will make me feel marginally better.

I believe it will be allowed.
I'm so sick of their atrocities and how they continue to get away with all this, Astaghfrullah 🤬
It burns me up on the inside. I hate them.

Don’t let up!

Well done!
Ughhhh I hope none of them sleep at night. I hope they’re tortured by living demons in their heads.
Me too

"Today East Jerusalem, tomorrow the world."
That would seem to be the plan. They already have shills in London and Washington, besides who knows where else.
Shouldn't be a surprise, considering the close similarities - not to mention ties - between Zionism and Nazism.
Ben Gvir commends the destruction of UN building amid ongoing Gaza conflict

In fact he supervised the demolition https://www.facebook.com/share/v/19FGSi7iPP/
He did indeed. Was there for all of it
Trump bulldozes the East Wing; Isreal bulldozes the UN building in East Jerusalem...impeach Trump, kick Isreal out of the Un !
Just like Trump....he bulldozed the WH ..with no remorse...no permits ...no WH oversight committee or historical advice .. just tore it down and sadly set the precedent to other countries, just do it ...no one does shit about it anyway . But the taxpayers foot the bills
And in another day ending in Y Israel breaks international law.
may this lawlessness this terrible impunity end soon inshallah. Pharaoh fell when he felt most powerful.
Inshallah
They're planning to replace the UN with the Sanhedrin Courts,this is just another rung on the ladder,Noahide Laws are coming.
The Board of Peace
Ahhh but they don’t know they’re making the decent people of the world hate them more. At this point of time even the birds the trees and the mountains hate them
