US vetoes another UN resolution calling for immediate ceasefire in Gaza | Israel-Hamas war

The US has vetoed a draft UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza - but drafted a new call to oppose any further advance by Israel.

The UK abstained and 13 council members voted in favour of the Algerian-drafted text, while America vetoed for the third time since the start of the war.

The new US-drafted resolution will call for a temporary ceasefire "as soon as practicable" and will oppose a major ground offensive by Israel in Rafah "under current circumstances".

I laugh at the West's moral values

[abskhan]

This is sickening, whod have thought those who suffered a holocaust would be so Evil.

USA: no time for peace on planet Earth

[toddb]

This is the Palestinian Holocaust. Carried out by Israel, with arms from the USA and support from the EU.

[sajiaakter]

Shame, shame USA. It proves that USA is alone.
USA, Never come to speak about humanity and democracy.

[adish]

No celebration? they stopped celebrating?

[MatiLevi-bd]

People tend to have a very short term memory. Those who are now calling for a ceasefire cheered on the massacre of October 7th.

The U.S has become the singular greatest obstacle to progress, prosperity and peace in the world.

Hold the UN accountable for its UNRWA group’s complicity in Hamas activities

[JohnFelinn]

Every day my opnion of Israelis sinks to a previously unthinkalble low. Recent Poll shows most of them actually support this (~90%).

[tzipi]

Never heard the people of Gaza say they want peace only war.

💕Was surprised to learn that the West Bank, Gaza and Jerusalem have been under occupation for 55+ years 😵, according to the international law and UN resolutions (1967-2023). I've come to believe that justice needs power to enforce it. ⚖❤

[mohammedshafi]

How come powerful country like US owned by Israel Lobby?

[hmong_keeb_kwm]

A cease fire can be vote on as much as everyone want, who's going to enforce the cease fire.

Is like the international law with no one to enforce such law in the first place. 😂

[dennisschroeder]

I don't understand. Israel has stated that if they get the hostages back that they will stop.
Surely the Gazan civilians can force Hamas and the other terrorist to give back the hostages.

[Xwarrior-dlkz]

The whole world is watching this shameless act of Israeli forces. Just clap. Clap for the Americans which talks about so called humaity and humanitarian pause. Shame US. Shame for the US policies.

[erikt]

It's a tricky decision. Israel has quite some momentum on the battlefield. If they act swiftly the war could end soon. A ceasefire might prolong the suffering.

[williamhoward]

Sky propaganda, Hamas shooting at their own people for taking their food.

[DavidR_]

The US are disgustingly on the wrong side of history on this one. Utterly revolting administration.

[pretoriussarel]

Respect to the US & IDF warriors, ban and defund the UN & UNRWA
