Israel is the target of at least 65 UN Resolutions and the Palestinians are the target of none.
 |
Aside from the core issues—refugees, Jerusalem, borders—the major themes reflected in the U.N. resolutions against Israel over the years are its unlawful attacks on its neighbors; its violations of the human rights of the Palestinians, including deportations, demolitions of homes and other collective punishments; its confiscation of Palestinian land; its establishment of illegal settlements; and its refusal to abide by the U.N. Charter and the 1949 Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War.

Suffice to say, Israel has never lived up to these terms. Israel’s membership in the UN is therefore null and void.
I believe that if you are a U.S. citizen it is your duty to put your energy into forcing the U.S. government to break military, economic, and diplomatic ties with this terrorist regime. My heart goes out to the Palestinian people. May we see justice for them and for all of the people suffering under the yoke of international banking cartels and their global terror.

When will America stop giving Israel the green lights?
2345StSt
America will stop giving Israel the green light only when the neo-cons lose control of the country. Too many Israel Firsters are neo-cons who have positions of power and control in the White House, the Congress, the finanacial industry, and the media for this to happen soon. In the meantime the United State will remain a client state of Israel and we Americans will pay in every respect.

1) Follow the money. Israel was established as a defensive barrier to oil producing countries. When Russia needs another ten billion, just give some nuclear plant components and watch them blow up, along with the price of oil. The Western markets seem to not mind this action either. I am not saying it is right, I am saying it is the way it is.
2) Arafat could have gotten all his demands at Camp David 2000. Bill Clinton was of course serving his own political ends while Arafat was serving his own bank account. I won't give Arafat a pass because it was a STUPID move to not accept the deal but this was a major setback to the Palestinian people. Caught between corrupt leadership and battered around by imperial powers. A bad situation. Both East and West profit from the plight of this people.
