I think the UN should come to this situation between Palestine and Israel immediately. They shouldn't leave until both governments reach an agreement. Really. The violence needs to stop.

Considering the situation at hand right now, UN needs to do something about it. Ofcourse, it wouldn't be able to solve the conflict alotgether, but it isn't about the conflict anymore, it is about its consqeuences which are pretty apparent, and unjustifiable to the core. It is strange how Israel constantly asserts that "we are targetting Hamas", when the fact is that targetting Hamas, essentially means targeting the whole of Gaza. Back in 2006, Hamas was "democratically" elected. That technically means, that most of Gaza is either part of Hamas, as in supporting it or a hardcare protagonist of that party. What Israel is doing, is plain hypocrisy and is morally wrong.

Do you have any idea how big gaza actually is?

Just so you know, Hamas and Fatah were both known as terrorist groups well before the "democratic election".

I really think that the UN should stop 12 year olds from killing people in Sudan.    

  Guess what?    

  They are not.    

  And if they are not involving themselves where they are needed, then they have no business involving themselves in israel.



  Well guess what, involvement is needed in Israel, sorry that everyone is the same when they have power.

 

 Did you just read my post?  

 Why aren't they involving themselves WHERE THEY ARE NEEDED?  

 Israel has tried UN resolutions, and all it has done is screwed them over.

Israel has also completely ignored UN resolutions. the UN IS NEEDED IN ISRAEL...clearly you didn't read my post. Do you know how Palestinians are treated in Israel?

Yes I do.
Do you know how israelis are treated by radical Palestinians?

Ideally a lot of things should be different, but they are not. Why?

Because of us. Our own society is more outraged by the latest crime of fashion than by the latest crime of hate.

I agree the UN needs to stop being a figure-head and puppet fo the US government and do something...but they won't.

Yea. I mean America is with Israel. Its not sympathetic with Palestine at all.

I know, it's SO SIMPLE in your eyes isn't it?

Did I ever say its simple? No.

I think that the UN, being successful in many cases, should enter this situation and insist on a solution. The two governments can't do it on their own.

The UN really can't do much
