I TO DA GEEZY:
Oh what a courageous exit by the leaders of the enlightened states. Too bad they weren't as courageous in their advocacy of human rights when Israel imposed the blockade or when it reduced Gaza to rubble.

RETURN OF THE OVERFIEND!:
I agree,


what else is ridiculous is the despotic power the Security Council has, it is 5 nations ruling the rest.

It dosn't matter that the vast majority of the world detests Israel's aggression and seeks to do something positive about the situation through peaceful means, because all Israel needs is one friend as a permanent member of the Security Council to veteo any decision the nations of the world (the General Assembly) make on Israel's aggression.



And speaking of nukes, the International Court of Justice decided back in 1996 that it is not illegal for a nation to use nuclear weapons as a defence in extreme situations where it's very existence is being threatened, provided that the use of force is proportionate to the threat and adheres to any international law applicable in armed conflict, of course. 


"...the Court cannot conclude definitively whether the threat or use of nulcear weapons would be lawful or unlawful in an extreme circumstances of self-defence, in which the very survival of a State would be at stake".

-The Legality of the Threat or Use of Nuclear Weapons (Advisory Opinion) 1996, paragraph 105, (2) E.

I never said he wasn't a hypocrite or using it as a staging post for his re-election campaign but all I am saying is this epitomises the feelings of a lot of the world,  ;D that the israeli government government is racist and yet gets away completely unscathed. Of course the arab countries were and have been complicit in allowing the suffering of the Palestinians to continue. As has been mentioned before they don't really like the palestinians, because they are seen as the black sheep of the arab world but will use them as a political tool whenever the need arrises. I guess this just underlines how controlled these said governments are.
