Most countries walk out of UN General Assembly session ahead of Netanyahu speech
Why are war criminals and genocidal maniacs allowed at the UN? Would they let Hitler speak at the UN assembly?
They let him host the Olympics, so yeah probably.
Also the US has veto power at the UN. So nothing can be done unless the US approves. Since the US enthusiastically supports genocide, nothing can be done.
Doesn’t Russia also have veto power? But does anything the UN does actually matter? It’s always “non binding” resolutions. And if it’s supposed to be binding, who is going to enforce it?
My understanding has been that one of the main purposes of the UN is to attempt to prevent or deescalate wars, by providing a forum for diplomacy. To that end, the kinds of people liable to start wars are exactly the kind of people one would encourage to attend it. Now, it may not have exactly proven very good at that (though it's a bit hard to say when we can't look at what history since it's founding would have looked like without it), but still, kicking those guys out doesn't actually do anything about what they're doing, it just tells them that you don't like them, which they probably already knew.
No it sends a message that there is no tolerance for you especially trying to mimic the holocaust from ww2 that was the whole origin story to the UN.
If theu weren't allowed in the UN, the UN wouldn't even exist lol.
UN is just diplomacy, but with an extra fancy logo and symbolic parliamentary voting, it doesn't have real powers.
It astounds me that people cannot understand this
There was no UN assembly when Hitler was alive, and he had Germany leave the predecessor League of Nations when he came to power.
