It would be great if they would all walk out on Trump too.
Half of them probably fell asleep about 20 minutes into his insane rant
Twenty minutes is about how long a normal person can be reasonably expected maintain attention, even if the content is interesting. That’s why TED talks are 20 minutes long.
On the other hand, Trump’s rants are mind numbing. You’re either seriously trained at listening, or you have something wrong with your brain, if you can listen to him for more than 2 minutes without zoning out.
I can’t even listen to him for 10 seconds without becoming irrationally angry.
It’s not irrational when you have valid reasons. The man is infuriating with his ego, lies, projection, and bigotry.
Thank you, it feels nice to be seen sometimes.
and hyperbole usage similar to a 5 year old.
Yeah a lot of trumps shtick was pretty incendiary.
It would be great if they all just recognized Palestine as a country and cut all trade with Israel immediately until they stopped. Instead of a symbolic walk out, actually walk out of their lives… And you can verify if they cut their shit out
Why until they stopped?
israel and the united states would leave the UN if they did this
That would be for the best since the US has veto rights over everything, basically.
or it might mean that the UN would no longer serve a purpose because it wouldn’t have any influence over the belligerents
lol no way in hell they’re gonna give up their permanent Security council seat, that would be the best thing they could ever do for the UN
you give the president of the us too much benefit of the doubt
Apparently, Israel hacked phones in Gaza to blast out Netanyahu’s speech as he was giving it. If that had happened in the Superman movie, the audience would have said that’s a bit too comic book villainous.
That’s some straight up Joker shenanigans.
Id say that’s more red skull or scarecrow personally, Joker generally only cares about it for folks who are in on the joke IE have context.
Umm first Batman movie where the Joker took control of all the tv stations for his “makeup product”?
I forgo
He’s a war criminal. He’s lucky that’s all they did
“Just let me finish up this genocide really quick, please guys…”
Imagine a world where the US respected the International Criminal Court and this man was arrested the minute he set foot on American soil.
Ok, so hear me out. The ICC is a UN body. The UN headquarters is international soil. Why couldn’t the UN security services arrest him and send him to stand trial at the ICC?
Because of this the American Service Members Protection Act
The act gives the president power to use "all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court.
This authorization led to the act being nicknamed “The Hague Invasion Act”, since the act would allow the president to order military action in The Hague, the seat of the ICC, to prevent American or allied officials and military personnel from being prosecuted or detained by the ICC.
The subsection (b) specifies this authority shall extend to “Covered United States persons” (members of the (“Armed Forces of the United States”), elected or appointed officials of the United States Government, and other persons employed by or working on behalf of the United States Government) and “Covered allied persons” (military personnel, elected or appointed officials, and other persons employed by or working on behalf of the government of a NATO member country, a major non-NATO ally including Australia, Egypt, Israel, Japan, Argentina, the Republic of Korea, and New Zealand).
How would they get him out of the building?
Really wish the UN had some kind of method to stop counties from clearly and openly committing genocide
I’m so sick of all of the performative grandstanding. Grab this fucker and throw him in a deep hole. Nice walkout guys, you really showed him.
Tony Blair to rule Gaza for five years. What the fuck is that weird ass fan fiction of reality!? XD
Weird times when Ireland’s PM is the voice of reason at the UN
One of many voices of reason. Many nom Western countries are on the right side of history on this one.
When have they not been?
This guy is from a centre right party. Not exactly my first ranked choice (or any for that matter).
So? Both of Irelands leading political parties since the foundation of the state are centre right. There has never been a non-centre right party in power.
By contrast the wanted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu received over FIFTY standing ovations when he addressed the US Congress last year.
Finish its final solution. He should have been rotting in prison a long time ago
He’s gonna do it and my tax dollars are gonna pay for it.
The final solution to the Palestinian question?
Oh wow, some people walked out in an ineffectual symbolic gesture.
