Edit: It looks like the argument here is that the US is not calling for an instant ceasefire, but instead saying that one is very important to have. China and Russia say it should be immediate. The US also tied it to hostage talks.

Another resolution is in the works to call for an immediate ceasefire, but the US is expected to veto it because they believe it could endanger hostage talks.

    The same can be said of Bibi and the IDF. They see Palestinians as ‘vermin’ that must be eradicated and not people who, according to the creation of Israel post-WW2 by the UN, have a right to live on the land as well.

    Until Israel is forced to follow the UN’s original intention and Hamas is completely dismantled, there will be no peace in the ME.

        @girlfreddy @nonailsleft Just fyi “nonailsleft” lime juice seems to do something enzymatically to the fungus which keeps the nail biting cycle going. Whenever I relapse on picking or biting every few years, lime juice stops it in its tracks.
