U.S. vetoes UN Security Council Gaza ceasefire resolution

The United States vetoed a United Nations Security Council resolution that called for an immediate, unconditional, and permanent ceasefire in Gaza.

The resolution, introduced by 10 member states and supported by the remaining 14 council members, also urged the release of Israeli captives held by Hamas.

The U.S. was the sole vote against the measure, arguing the ceasefire was not adequately linked to the captives’ release.

This marked the first UNSC vote on Gaza since November 2024 and the 15th since the war began.

  1. Why did the U.S. vote against this?
    Who benefits?
    The J3w$ and the illegal Israeli Government!
    The United State of Israel, it’s the best country that shekels can buy, still talks and acts with amazing hypocritical ironic policies that implicate it in the Genocide, War Crimes, Holodomor and Human Rights Violations for acting in ‘behalf of Israel’ with it’s ‘Unwavering support’ of the same psychopathic and illegally-gained ‘nation’ and it’s successive governments on both sides of the Atlantic!
    Israel, Talmudic Zionism & Noahide Law = the elements of a Satanic Death Cult comprised of Khazarians that adopted Judaism circa 900AD.
