According to the debate, they had their reasons. But still -- when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.
You're viewing a single thread.
when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.
Especially when those two are consistently on the wrong side of such votes.
UN resolution A/RES/75/169: Combating glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance
- US and Turkey are only votes against, Israel didn't vote. (You'd think Israel might care more about Nazis but I guess not)
UN resolution A/78/L.5: Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States of America against Cuba
- US and Israel are the only votes against ending the embargo.
I could go on, but this pattern holds across numerous issues. USA and Israel's governments are fucking monsters.
(You’d think Israel might care more about Nazis but I guess not)
I think they care a lot about keeping the "other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance"
(You’d think Israel might care more about Nazis but I guess not)
Birds of a feather... and all that.
Another lie: https://digitallibrary.un.org/record/3949735 Israel was in favour, the us and Ukraine were against and quite a list abstained
you know this is public information, right?
That's A/76/460, which the person you're replying to did not mention, and which had the abstains and votes against because of the political context, aka being proposed by russia while they were leading an offensive war under the pretense of denazification. You know that's public information too, right?
Bother to look further than the first thing you click on next time plz
