    If you’re not on the side of Israel and USA you’re on the side of Hamas, Russia, Iran, NK and China. Which is unsurprising given UN’s record.

      So what about the stance of not supporting Israel’s genocide of Palestinians while condemning Hamas actions. Ever consider that its possible to be against both sides?

      It’s not a game of sportsball. You can be on the side of people getting murdered who have no direct control of the decisions of the governments and organisations committing atrocities.

      That’s the UN’s job in fact. They aren’t picking a side, and they are saying both sides have done wrong. All that’s happened is the UN acknowledging an objective fact, if you consider killing civilians and targeting civilian infrastructure to be wrong.
