This opens Israel up to endless prosecutions before the ICC, and gives a terror state the imprimatur of legitimacy. Which was a predictable move in the trajectory of transnational progressivism, the disease that will in the end kill off any free country, delegitimize national sovereignty, and create an untouchable permanent bureaucratic ruling class, a crony class, and the “masses” to be administered to in ways the betters see fit.
Sadly, many countries have abandoned Israel now merely to buy themselves a posture of supposed even-handedness.
“Never again” doesn’t mean what it used to, I guess.
They are really straining Israel’s tendency towards decency. If Israel were as indecent as the countries that surround it, those countries wouldn’t be a threat to Israel any more.
Nobody did shit to the UN when they stood around and watched Rawanda blow up. Why worry now? We don’t punish the UN for facilitating massacres. They’ll probably asked for more money and some taxing authority now. Garcon’ ? A round of peace prizes for the esteemed gentlemen at the front table please! And put it on the USA’s tab.
this is why you don’t want a lying whore as your UN ambassador
Either that or blow everything completely the fuck up and whoever is left can start over again.
Folks used to make big-deal art of places named Guernica. Nowadays it becomes a YouTube video. (Caution: stark scenes of crushed and broken bodies of children.)

You can’t be a failed state unless you are a state.
Oh, and US out of the UN.
And UN out of the US while we’re at it.
These days, the UN is reminding me of another socialist, anti-semitic organization.
Dydeetown World was prescient.
Remind me again what it means when one “legitimate” UN-recognized “nation” lobs rockets into another? Act of…something…
Nobody gives a crap about the ICC, it’s a freakin’ joke.
So “Palestine” is a “state” is it? Well, then, it has certain responsibilities, and failing to meet them (say, sitting on the crazies) is cause for a declaration of war against the new state.
Which is exactly what Israel should do. Declare war, bomb the living crap out of Gaza, and force an exodus of the pali terror thugs into Egypt.
