Clinton: U.N. Palestine Vote ‘Unfortunate And Counterproductive’

57. In what way has Russia supported the Palestinians? And maybe China finally had it just like

the rest of the world. Neither was ever able to get the UN to enforce the sanctions violated by Israel eg. I haven't seen any Russian or Chinese elected officials taking oaths to support Palestine no matter what. Nor have I heard any Palestinian leader claim, as Netanyahu has regarding the US Congress, that they 'have the Russian Government in the palm of their hands'.

The US has not once condemned any action taken by Israel no matter how wrong. In fact when it becomes apparent that the rest of the World is growing increasingly impatient with Israel's violent attacks on Gaza and Lebanon and peace activists, the US Congress rushes to take yet another oath of support for Israel. All this has done is to anger the rest of the world even more.

Israel therefore has not been served well by the US' biased and one-sided position on this situation. Having alienated the world ourselves with Bush's brutal wars killing untold numbers of Muslims, the world is no longer surprised when the US cheers on brutal invasions of other populations.

I hope one day the US and Israel will get over the false belief that the world respects violent invasions of other people's countries. They do not. So using such intense violence no matter what excuses are used 'Saddam was a Brutal dictator' 'the Palestinians are to blame' etc., obliterates any moral superiority they might have had. People abhor watching these bombings and do not believe that MORE Violence is the answer.

If it was, the world should be the most peaceful it ever was in its history. Instead, after all the 'Wars for Peace' the world is unstable and violent than ever.

Someone other than the current players who believe in using WMDs to solve every problem, need to take over.
