US one shy of becoming an Ace in blocking genocide ceasefire resolutions in UN

 

US one shy of becoming an Ace in blocking genocide ceasefire resolutions in UN

For the fourth time since the US enabled Israeli genocide in Gaza, the US vetoed a genocide ceasefire resolution in the UN Security Council.
 
The resolution passed overwhelmingly 14-1 as Uncle Sam enticed no Security Council partners to help him continue the genocide.
 
But he didn’t need any since the US, as one of 5 permanent members, has veto power to prevent any such resolution from passing.
 
Algerian Ambassador Amar Bendjama who voted for the ceasefire, blasted the US veto: “Today’s message is clear to the Israeli occupying power: First you may continue your genocide. You may continue your collective punishment of the Palestinian people with complete impunity. In this chamber, you enjoy immunity.” 
 
 In aerial combat, a pilot who downs 5 enemy planes is called an Ace of the Air. With America’s fifth soon to occur veto , America can be called an Ace…of Genocide.
