I was thinking about the current news about the Israeli "incursion" into

world organization called the United Nations, fails to do their job.
Countries will tend to do what is in their own best interest, if the
world
organization cannot or will not resolve the problem effectively.....

Do you think the US vetoing every resolution against Israel might have
something to do with it?


No. I think Israel will continued to do what they are doing regardless of
whether there is a resolution or not, if they feel that the nations security
is more important.

So why do the US bother to undermine the UN over Israel then?

The UN just passed a resolution on North Korea, telling
them what bad boys they are and if they do not fall into line, they will be
punished. What do you think the odds are that North Korea will now abandon
their nuclear ambitions? Do you for a second believe that Iran is likely to
abandon their nuclear ambitions, even if the UN passes a resolution telling
them what bad boys they are? If Syria and/or Iran join the battle and fight
the Israeli's, what do you suppose the UN is going to do...pass another
resolution saying what bad boys all of you are?

So what you are saying is that
A) There is no point in having a UN, international law or the Geneva
convention.
B) The old League of nations (Now UN) had no business establishing an
immigrant colony against the will of the inhabitants of the region and
declaring it a country.
