US Vetoes UN Security Resolution Calling for ‘Humanitarian Pauses’ in Gaza

The US on Wednesday vetoed a Brazilian-proposed UN Security Council resolution that would have called for “humanitarian pauses” to allow the delivery of aid to Gaza.

The US was the only member of the Security Council to vote against the proposal, which is enough to veto the resolution since the US is a permanent member. Nine out of 12 members voted in favor of the resolution, while the UK and Russia abstained.

The vote came two days after the US and its allies on the Security Council rejected a resolution proposed by Russia calling for a ceasefire. The US claimed that it opposed the Russian resolution because it did not condemn Hamas.

The Brazilian version did condemn Hamas, but the US still complained about the language. US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said the US vetoed the resolution because it “did not mention Israel’s right of self-defense.”

Russian Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia said Moscow did not vote in favor of the Brazilian resolution because it had “no clear call for a ceasefire” and “will not help to stop the bloodshed.”

During President Biden’s visit to Israel on Wednesday, Israel said it agreed to allow humanitarian aid to enter Gaza from Egypt. The US is still not calling for a ceasefire or any kind of de-escalation and is strongly backing Israel’s bombardment with new military aid and deployments of military assets to the region.

unbelieable. look how they use a black woman to make it look like they represent everyone and are nice. thats the last thing they do. i imagine most people in the world are wondering whether hell has frozen over or something, makes no sense to not vote for peace, especialliy when there is nothing to be lost.

USA the world's bully.

not even peace. just some humanitarian aid. all because ‘how the resolution was worded’. like you say, unbelievable. boycott of us product continues; apple, coca cola, macdonalds, kelloggs, dell, royal canin (mars pet food division), frito lay, walkers, etc. not that hard. most us products have a substitute and/or are bad for health.

even if a monkey was representing us on the world stage, they would say that the representative is right, especially their stupid allies.

the un is all theater. it means nothing. it’s a rothschild knick-knack. as well as the icc. no one takes any of their decisions seriously as they’re are bought and paid for by the empire. they will give lip service to the palestinian cause but everyone knows it’s all theater.

it should be clear by now what israel and the us governments are up to. iran and the rest of the middle-east is wasting time; what are they waiting for? they may as well have at it and get this whole mess over with. otherwise it will only fester and get worse.

its quite interesting to view the reaction of the west when russia was accused of bombing the hospital in mariupol. wiki has a sectopn3 on it which is worth a read. borrel described it as a war crime. others called it ethnic cleansing, genocide etc. what is glaring is western hypocrisy. the west isn’t coming out of this well. we now have a political class that are completely divorced from most of the populace and reality.

the willing helpers in the anglozionazi empire of excrement inside ussa will be dragged to the bottom of their washing town sewer with the stinking khazar albatross from occupied palestine. will the cadaver-in-chief, senile pedovore, creepy joe start something with mighty iran to cover his sorry geriatric a$$ and impending impeachment in slumville proper? will nut’nyahoo send the idf pussies behind “the wall” to come out (if ever) in bloody bodybags?

it is a cowardly act. russia abstained, which is worse than voting against.

had russia voted for and the resolution had pased, than a western country would have tried the same for ukraine. russia would have obviously vetoed and would appear to be a hippocryte.. so good move
