So when was the last time they listened to the UN?
The same agency who is responsible for their own existence, and they seem to constantly attack its existence.
The idea behind the UN was to prevent the future us of repeating the same mistakes of WWII and to create a more just world, where everyone is held accountable equally. How ironic.
Yet they went ahead and used the veto system…
When making an international organization without having the means or the desire to force everyone to join and follow the rules, you have to compromise to make certain states (especially the powerful ones) participate willingly.
Oh I’m sure they’ll allow them in.
Just don’t expect them to come out again unless they’re in a body bag.
Technically following the UN!
They allow them, just as they allow aid trucks
Which they do allow. Just not UNRWA trucks.
Letting in a fraction of what’s needed isn’t a great look for them
You can make that argument sure. But you can’t say they aren’t letting any in, which is what was initially said.
Israel is deliberately preventing aid trucks and attacking humanitarian aid to starve millions of people.

We should cap aid to Israel at the amount of aid they let into Gaza, otherwise treat them like the hostile foreign power that they fucking are
They should literally throw Johny Somali in there
