That vote was one of the two times a day the Israeli broken clock was correct, iirc.

^{From Voting records of the Third Committee:}

Recorded vote on draft resolution A/C.3/77/L.5, as orally revised and as amended - Combating glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance

Recorded vote on draft amendment A/C.3/77/L.52 - Amendment to draft resolution A/C.3/77/L.5

US and Ukraine voted no, on L.5. And yes on the L.52 amendment.

For reference:

The Committee then took up draft amendment “L.52”, which inserts a new operative paragraph, reading: “Notes with alarm that the Russian Federation has sought to justify its territorial aggression against Ukraine on the purported basis of eliminating neo-Nazism, and underlines that the pretextual use of neo-Nazism to justify territorial aggression seriously undermines genuine attempts to combat neo-Nazism.”

Smh so disappointing they’re like “well we have agricultural safety concerns and we aren’t sure that the policy would work as intended…so let them starve instead nothing we can do so sad”

Wasn't it basically trying to push IP rights and extra judicial arbiters on the other nations?

Israel

If you zoom in you can barely see Israel being red... altho the compression on this is so bad, it's hard to tell whether that are just compression artifacts or not

Taiwan has a limited status in some international organizations under the name "Chinese Taipei" (this name greatly angers Taiwanese ultranationalists so I use it whenever possible), but the UN recognizes it as part of China.

There's a video of the UN voting on the PRC's membership to the exclusion of Taiwan, the entire room laughs when America casts its vote and there's an interview somewhere with a RoC diplomat whining about their "true democracy and freedom" despite the RoC being a one-party white terror regime.

1. Their own.
2. Norway.
3. The US.

EDIT: Yeah, you're right. It is obvious.

Myths of "Humanitarian" Intervention

CONTRARY TO POPULAR belief, U.S. leaders are no different from those of most other countries in that they have a dismal humanitarian record.

True, many nations including this one have sent relief abroad in response to particular disasters.But these sporadic actions are limited in scope, do not represent an essential policy commitment, and obscure the many occasions when governments choose to do absolutely nothing for other peoples in dire straits.

In addition, most U.S. aid missions serve as pretexts for hidden political agendas. They are intended to bolster conservative procapitalist regimes, build infrastructures (roads, ports, office complexes) that assist big investors, lend a cover for counterinsurgency programs, and undermine local agrarian self-sufficiency by driving independent farmers off lands that are then taken over by corporate agribusiness.

I don’t understand why everybody is downvoting you. It’s a well known fact that throughout its 247 years of existence, the United States has literally never committed a single atrocity. I’m not saying the United States is perfect; maybe it committed an atrocity or two a couple of times, but nothing that was a big deal.

Would you look at that: a brainless NPC wandered into the thread. You're even more confidently wrong than the average redditor. That's almost impressive.

Only about 2.

US doesn't have 'aid', they call it 'aid' but is usually corruption money or loan.

For example, take a look at what is Ukraine getting. Not aid, most of it is some kind of loan.

I think definition of aid is that they don't own anything in return, but US is not using it like that.

What bill needs to be footed? The vote was to make food a right, not force a single country to pay for the cost of food. Please learn to read and understand what you are reading. Worrying about a non-existent "bill" is purely ideological.

Ignorant ranting to its fullest

lool get your fucking CCP propaganda out of here you wumao
