If the UN and those nations pressuring Israel into a ceasefire genuinely cared about Palestinian lives, then the pressure would be on Hamas (using human shields) to surrender and on Egypt to open its doors for refugees. Yet no such pressure is being exerted. Israel has tried to evacuate citizens from Rafah. UN Relief chief Martin Griffiths not only admitted that he does not consider Hamas to be a terrorist group, but he also stated that the Israelis did all they could, “to their credit,” to evacuate Gazans to a safe location. Still, the jihadist-infiltrated UN has blocked such efforts. Prior to the latest UN ceasefire vote, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres stated that there is “growing consensus emerging in international community to tell Israel a ceasefire is needed.’” The latest passage of yet another ceasefire demand at the UN is for the specific purpose of systematically pressuring the Jewish state into compliance, and in the worst case scenario, putting it on the road to ultimate extinction.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has now canceled an Israeli delegation’s visit to Washington after the Biden regime allowed the UN ceasefire resolution to pass. The U.S. put forward a ceasefire resolution last Friday that was tied to the release of hostages, but it was vetoed by Russia and China, two countries which have become allies of Iran. Then a second ceasefire resolution was introduced, and “the US abstention on Monday’s vote allowed the latest resolution to pass, when the other 14 members of the 15-strong council voted yes.” The message sent to Iran and its proxies, who are just as determined to conquer America and the West as they are to destroy Israel, is that Israel is increasingly alone, and abandoned by its key supporter, America. How low of the Biden administration to abstain from the latest UN vote on a ceasefire. The Biden regime could have just as well come right out and voted for a ceasefire to begin with, as did Russia and China. But in a cowardly move, America’s final decision not to veto the resolution resulted in its passage. Yet those who are easily played for fools continue to believe that Biden is a friend of Israel.
The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office issued the following statement after the US abstention (Courtesy Israel Government Press Office):
Regrettably, the United States did not veto the new resolution, which calls for a ceasefire that is not contingent on the release of hostages.
This constitutes a clear departure from the consistent US position in the Security Council since the beginning of the war.
Today’s resolution gives Hamas hope that international pressure will force Israel to accept a ceasefire without the release of our hostages, thus harming both the war effort and the effort to release the hostages.
Prime Minister Netanyahu made it clear last night that should the US depart from its principled policy and not veto this harmful resolution, he will cancel the Israeli delegation’s visit to the United States. In light of the change in the US position, PM Netanyahu decided that the delegation will remain in Israel.
Israel has already made it crystal clear that no ceasefire will happen until the Hamas threat is eliminated. No one can deny that war is inevitably brutal. Despite the knowledge that Israel’s very existence being threatened, the UN has passed no resolutions calling upon Hamas to surrender, or pressuring Egypt to take in refugees. In fact, the only refugees that Egypt is taking in are those who are able to pay a bribe. Some Palestinians are “paying thousands of dollars to fixers connected to the Egyptian government.” These Egyptian government-connected “fixers” are lining their pockets with “exorbitant” amounts of cash that the refugees are handing over to them. The fixers are motivated by money and not by any desire to save lives, yet leftists don’t criticize them.
In a follow-up statement from the Government Press Office after Hamas rejected a ceasefire offer, the Prime Minister’s Office added:
Hamas’s stance clearly demonstrates its utter disinterest in a negotiated deal and attests to the damage done by the UN Security Council’s resolution.
Hamas has once again rejected an American compromise proposal and has repeated its extreme demands: An immediate halt to the war, the complete withdrawal of the IDF from the Gaza Strip and leaving in place its administration so that it can repeat, time and again, the massacre of October 7, as it has promised to do.
Hamas rebuffed all US offers for a compromise, while celebrating the Security Council’s resolution.
Israel will not address Hamas’s delusional demands. Israel will pursue and achieve its just war objectives: Destroying Hamas’s military and governmental capacities, release of all the hostages, and ensuring Gaza will not pose a threat to the people of Israel in the future.
Israel finds itself isolated and betrayed by its allies at the most critical point in its history. French President Emmanuel Macron has told Netanyahu “that any forced transfer of people from the southern Gaza city of Rafah would constitute ‘a war crime.’” Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani has stated that “Israel’s reaction against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza conflict has been disproportionate.” The UK and Australia issued a joint statement, calling for an “immediate” end to fighting in Gaza. Canada intends to uphold a non-binding motion passed in Parliament calling for a “halt to arms exports to Israel in light of the Gaza war.”
Every anti-Israel nation has gone to war for territory, and World War II was the most brutal war in history, with deaths of 40 to 50 million people. The Israeli war against Hamas is defensive and is war for Israel’s survival, yet Israel is being singled out despite full and documented knowledge of Hamas’ determination to obliterate the Jewish state.
When Joe Biden backed New York Senator Chuck Schumer’s call for new elections in Israel, I predicted that the Biden team would slyly create a crisis in Israel in order to aid its electoral chances in November. I noted that Biden’s dilemma in the upcoming U.S. elections is his dependence on the Muslim vote and the pressure he has been receiving from Muslim communities. By shifting attention to Israel and the Netanyahu government, Biden diverts scrutiny from his own poor record, and creates an excuse for evading his responsibility to ally with Israel against jihad terror. He also gets to shift blame away from his administration for pouring billions into the coffers of Iran. Creating a crisis to avert attention and responsibility has become a signature ploy of Democrats.
Should Israel accept a ceasefire, it will see attacks that will be on a larger scale than October 7.

At least you guys abstained, my country voted in favour of the hamas cowards.
David Gin says
Christine, its past the time that my Jewish brothers and sisters realize that an appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last, but Islam won’t a Jew in Israel is a Jew in America. The amount of American Jewish money into the Democrat party it it would be suddenly stopped or slowed down maybe the party might think they need to change direction since will all know to politician’s money talks. To think that a bunch of immigrants not too long ago have that much sway over the Democrat party should terrify ever American, and hope they are woken up come November 2024 and vote the Democrats out of power before they completely destroy America.

FORNICATE, these RABID ANIMALS !
Hannah Katz says
Hamas could have achieved a cease fire sooner by releasing the hostages and laying down their arms.
maria says
Unfortunately I am afraid that there are no hostage alives
Alkflaeda says
Hamas could have sustained the ceasefire that was in place in December. Or the one in effect up to 6/10.

USA surges in the international Islamopandering derby.
Intrepid says
Great. So the UMN (United Muslim Nations) voted for a cease fire. Anyone surprised?
As far as I know Israel and Hamas were already in a “cease fire” on October 6. Israel and hamas are always in a cease fire before each of the Hamas attacks over the last two decades.
All a cease fire does is give Hamas time to regroup and re-arm.
Israel. Level Raffa. Kill who ever you need to and quit screwing around. To hell with world opinion. None of that matters. Kill ’em all.
Mike says
UN to Israel:
“Stop Oppressing those poor Palestinians and let them kill you like they want.”
maria says
UN is a neo nazi group. They should be replaced
Ed Snider says
The world hates Jews. All the rest is commentary.
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
Any nation that votes to stop the fight is voting to continue Hamas’/Muslim butchery.
There was peace until Hamas/Muslim attacked and committed butchery without warning.
Such people will never accept peace.
Kuffar says
Ceasefire? Uh. No!
Dave Gray says
Just confirmation the UN is feckless just like #FJB. Wipe out Hamas and a firey death to Islam.
Alkflaeda says
I am wondering if there is something hypnotic or occult in the hold that Hamas – and Islam generally -seems to have over people. What is happening now has the same feel as the way in which crowds were entranced by Hitler’s demagoguery (and NB he was involved in spiritualism). We know that the being who dictated the Qur’an crushed Mohammed’s chest, and that this is a classic sign of trance mediumship (not prophecy). So clearly there have been occult influences at work since the inception of Islam. I am wondering if there are methods of spiritual warfare that would address this issue. What I am unclear about is the relationship of these phenomena with the free will of the people involved, because we know that God will not overrule people’s freewill. Will be praying about this and may update if I feel that I have more clarity.

And what army, pray tell, is the UN going to use to enforce it’s little edict?
