The UN is not even a joke. A joke has at least a point.

[thomasfowler]

Lol all they do is condemn people and do absolutely nothing about it

[stringer-ikpc]

This man is a joke.( israel has a right to defend itself)

[KYYA]

“I condemn the nation that is not paying my wages” is all I heard

At school I was taught that the forerunner of the UN was the League of Nations and that incarnation was about as effective as this one has become.

I'm Portuguese just like him, but this guy is a big embarrassment for us. He was a bad prime minister in Portugal and didn't improve as General Secretary!😐

[mas_khan]

What is the point of having Un if they are impotent 😂

[schofield]

UN chief? Now there’s an unbiased individual eh?

[mungleeashad]

Secretary General, you are a bag of wind😂

[emil-fz]

Did someone actually expected that Iran was going to do nothing? Only asking out of curiosity

[TheSlimbee]

Should not condemn those defending themselves nor a t

[hashim]

Doesnt iran has the right to defend it self?

[complete_newb]

Hypocrisy, why can't Iran defend itself using the same method as the Israeli's

[reissamaan]

Do me a favour. Condemn and stop the Genocide first before talking about anything else

[jimmybabe]

The UN should have enforced the ICJ judgments, it didn't. And now a country which effectively is trying to do that is condemned by the UN. The UN should be defunded

[princessunknown]

Iran has 100% right defend them self's

[markusleitner]

UN giving the criminal Netanyahy airtime in the assembly is a complete disgrace, hypocracy and mistake.

[goldiegirl]

Israel has the right to defend itself just as other countries do or would ..

[EarnestWilliamsGeofferic]

Way too late. He should have been calling for enforcement of 1701 from the first day of his office.

Israelis can thank Iranian decency and humanity for not targetting civilian areas...
