On his way into the chamber, France's ambassador to the UN, Nicolas de Riviere, put it this way: "A resolution failing because of veto is a failure of the UN Security Council."
Mr de Riviere wanted more time to negotiate towards an agreement and spoke of the danger of driving "the Security Council car against the wall".
The Americans duly raised a hand against the ceasefire resolution and so the will of the minority carried the day.
Around the UN table, as around the world, there was a recognition of a defining episode for the organisation.
The UN describes its four "pillars" as peace and security, human rights, the rule of law and development.
It's a list that people in Gaza won't recognise.
As an organisation, the UN appears powerless to enforce any - after the vote, as it did before.

And Hamas will also not truthfully tell how many of their terror soldiers are being counted as none combatant deaths.
I would think the world would also want an investigation into the 70 killed on a declared safe route of Salah-al-Din Road on Oct Friday 13 in Gaza. Funny how the media was all over this until evidence started pointing to Hamas.

If things go next level it shows where the lines are. With Europe backing Palestine, sucks to be the USA, UK and that side. One thing Israel got right was in how to unite the rest of the world over something.
Are you still trying to get a Nobel Peace Prize or that year end bonus? Sure you have an opinion yet its obviously biased.

... SAYS HAMAS. You keep forgetting to add that to the post. No one knows how many have died in Gaza.

Then why are people not calling for an investigation into the 70 killed on Friday Oct 13 along Salah-al-Din Road. Funny the media you don’t trust all the sudden becomes trusted when they repeat Hamas lies. And the same media dropped the Salah-al-Din Road narrative when it started to look like Hamas lied about an Israeli air strike, and Hamas booby trapped the declared safe route.

I don't think people know who the IDF is fighting over there. Within a population of 2+ million how many have risen to support Hamas?

Unlike you who has no bias whatsoever , if my opinion is biased it's because I will always speak out against Genocide regardless of who is committing it , when all of this is over and Netanyahu is either in the Hague or accidentally fell down some stairs we will see who was right and who was wrong.

Do you have any legitimate evidence to these claims or is it all stuff you heard from the same people who lied about Afghanistan, Iraq, and Ukraine?
