The majority of the council has long supported an immediate ceasefire so all eyes will be on Israel’s ally, the United States.

The US representative at the UN, Robert Wood, has said that they wouldn’t support an immediate ceasefire.

“While the United States strongly supports a durable peace, in which both Israelis and Palestinians can live in peace and security, we do not support calls for an immediate ceasefire.”

“This would only plant the seeds for the next war because Hamas has no desire to see a durable peace,” he told the UN Security Council.

The US is one of the permanent members which has the right to veto resolution.

    Oh i totally got that when i read your comment; what i’m saying is that at this point, and with how blatant it is, its starting to look like this may actually be the result they’ve been working towards. So it’s starting to not look like insanity anymore. And THAT sends chills down my spine
