minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up22arrow-down11·edit-21 年前 The United States abstained, allowing it to pass. Oh wow, look at the absolute bare fucking minimum… Now Israel is surely in trouble after a non binding resolution…
minus-squareLinkerbaan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down2·1 年前Actually it is binding. America just said right afterwards that it was non binding. Which is a lie.
minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6arrow-down1·1 年前It’s as binding as international law… Something that Israel violates all the time. It’ll be “binding” when UN forces move in to stop the genocide, or Israel stops on their own. I don’t expect either to happen. And consider it was for “immediate” ceasefire, and there hasn’t been a ceasefire… Pretty obvious it’s not being enforced.
