Well, no. Because someone has vetoed almost every single resolution
critical of Israel for decades - the US.

Sort of like France with the US over Iraq, right?
If it weren't for US vetos, the UN would probably have voted a resolution
calling for the "disbandment" of the Israeli state!


Like you wanted them to do for Iraq?

Pot. Kettle. You do the introductions.


To: Mr Pot
Iraq

US never has wanted to disband Iraq. We stopped in 1991 to prevent
the collapse of Iraq due to fragmentation. We then and now recognised
the Iraqi state and people right to self determination. We objected
to the Regime in charge and after 13 years of resistence, offense and
obfuscation, decided to take action. The US doesnt need another
desert, we got Texas.

Cordially

Actually we stopped because the coalition would have fragmented had we gone
further into Iraq. The Syrians, Saudis etc would have changed sides. Besides
the Coalition was only assembled and mandated by the UN to eject the Iraqis
from Kuwait.
