Israel has said the “time has come to teach the United Nations a lesson” by banning UN officials from visiting the country – in a row over remarks from secretary-general Antonio Guterres that the deadly 7 October attack by Hamas “did not happen in a vacuum” and had to be seen in the context of decades of occupation of the Palestinians.
Banning UN officials from visiting the country? Isn’t that usually the first thing the so called villains do in times of war?
Straight from Putins playbook too lol
Fascists are always the biggest cowards in any given situation. Because of this insecurity, they have to restrict speech, restrict movement, manufacture realities, bully their citizens, bully their partners, obfuscate, gaslight, and play the victim card over and over again to advance their awful goals. In every respect, Israel is a comically evil, insecure and dishonest entity. Actual democracies, like what the US keeps pretending Israel is, don’t need to hide their actions and berate the world community like this.
If you don’t let international observers into the country, or the war zone, there’s nothing to observe, therefore anybody who says a war crime happens is obviously lying. Because they couldn’t have possibly observed it
It’s the perfect political strategy.
It worked so well before…

1955 The South African Government withdrew from membership in the UNESCO in protest against UNESCO’s activities against racial discrimination.
Is the UN allowed to undo its resolutions?
Specifically, the one that created the modern state of Israel:

Not without consent of the body with, undoubtedly, vetos for the US. Which the US will then use to shield Israel from anything and everything as it has many, many times before.
“What occupation?”
- Israel
“Please help us, we’re literally dying, we are losing everything we have and we have nowhere to turn, please we’re begging you…”
- Palestinians
“IsRaEl HaS tHe RiGhT tO dEfEnD iTsElF”
- Israel apologists
“Israel did what? We didn’t see anything.”
- the UN
“If you have empathy for Palestinian people, you’re a terrorist”
- Also Israel
“They are not people”
- Believe it or not, said on TV, distributed worldwide
I don’t care anymore what Israel apologists think, Israel is officially a genocidal Nazi regime that is at least as bad as Russia currently is. International aid for this Fourth Reich must stop immediately.
Israel needs to be put in its place. Free people don’t need to take ANY shit from fucking fascist degenerate religious ethnostates.
I’ve always wondered at what point the farce would end. What would they have to do to end their unwavering support from imperialist libs?
