    Why they haven’t been kicked out of the UN is a mystery to me.

        This isn’t kicking them because they suck. It’s because they keep killing envoys of the UN. I’d say murdering the citizens of your partners over and over is grounds for removal.

            No, I’m not. I must not get some key element because I’m 100% serious. The headline says that Israel shot upon a UN convoy. How is my saying that should get them kicked out of the UN a deliberate misunderstanding of anything? Repeatedly shoot at the coalition of which you’re a member and you cease to be a member. That’s pretty straightforward.

                You’re losing nothing by leaving UN.

                It’s a say in global politics. If that’s nothing to you then how do you explain people accepting the obligations of membership?

                    You and I may be idealists, but the world is not. Nations are not. Israel certainly is not.

      A lot of people have been misled about the cruelty of Israel. Even as someone who has been exposed to it more than the average person in the West, I still had to read books by Israeli historians and authors such as Ilan Pappe to realize that it is much worse than what appears on Al-Jazeera. Now though, no need to ask people to read books about it, it is being live streamed for all to watch. Israel is not tacit or political about it anymore.

      Now that everyone knows what’s going on, it is mostly the US veto that’s protecting Israel.
