    First of all, that’s also not in his power.

    Secondly, how would disbanding the part of the UN that investigates human rights abuses help Palestinians?

    Edit: Wait, you think the entire UN should be disbanded over this?

    The UN is the only reason we haven’t had a nuclear war yet. Otherwise, countries wouldn’t have a neutral world forum.

        That’s not what the UN is for… it’s not a military force… it’s a round table for nations to work their differences out via words and not nuking each other.

          People like to criticise the UN but the alternative to having the UN is having no UN. We’d be fucked

            We need something more than the UN that has real power to stop Israel’s terror and genocide. The UN can fuck off and prevent it’s theoretical events elsewhere.
