"Rights" can only be taken away by force, if there is no method to ensure compliance, this is yet another meaningless resolution.
The UN is a diplomatic organization. It is a forum to discuss things and literally has no actual means to enforce anything. Its goal is not enforcement, it's to discuss.
Exactly. Every time the UN does something, people say "they can't enforce it".
Well, that's the whole point of the UN. To resolve things without using force.
It's a good design, designed by people who learned from the horrors of WW2.
It's sad to see how many people nowadays forget those lessons and are itching for global war.
I, personally, am itching for progress. In my lifetime. What history has proven is that progress is never achieved without bloodshed.
Though there is one very easy step the US at least can take that isn't bloodshed: STOP SELLING WEAPONS TO ISRAEL.
