There’s not a lot I disagree with here but it bears little relevance to what we’ve been discussing on this page vis a vis Russia, China.
Doesn't it? I've must been intoxicated by my own brainfarts and got sidetracked then.
Aside from getting one over the US you previously mentioned "posturing and preening on the world stage being exclusive to the US" which is factually wrong. Russia and China (and many other countries) do the very same thing. They truly are up to something, which is feck the US over at every chance they get. Just like the US does. They also love gaslighting. Just like the US does.
It's not so much about the validity of their reasons to veto the resolution as to why they really vetoed it. Palestine just comes in handy at the moment. It could've been anything.
I hold US foreign policy in utmost contempt. I personally think that the US has been a blight on this planet since the end of WWII and call for a multipolar world where every superpower is kept in check by other ones. But let's not kid ourselves and think that Russia or China are suddenly cool and doing the right thing just because they happen to have a stance that coincidentally aligns with your view of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
I agree in most of what you say here. I don't understand the Subplot of China and Russia in your other recent posts, when is irrelevant in a shitty proposition that China and Russia has the same agenda about Israel - Palestine than the rest of the world.
Is completely normal that they don't have an agenda besides justice for Palestine like the rest of the world. That the US is the baddy is a happy coincidence. Who put the shitty resolution is the US not them and they have to vote in favour, against or abstained. and they simply voted what is fair, like the rest of the world
Mentioning them like going against the US is transferring the baddy vibe to them when the sole culprit of the countries that has veto is the US in this instance
That's why they didn't lift so much of a pinkie for the past five decades and only opened their mouth in the last five months.
There's no such thing as fairness in international matters, especially when it involves major powers deciding the fate of plebs. You can bet your ass that if voting for the resolution would've served Russia's or China's interests, they'd have done it.
That will sell in the US and major parts of the Western world, which is the point. They are all baddies.
