Self-defence ok for Israel, not Iran is ‘clearly bunkum’| Quotable

George Galloway, a member of the UK Parliament, criticises the West’s double standards when it comes to Israel and Iran. Galloway says that if international standards were applicable to all, then Western governments would have condemned Israel’s “blatant, brazen” bombing of an Iranian embassy building in Syria, and not just Iran’s attack on Israel.

Two more resolutions to end Gaza violence fail at UN Security Council

The United Nations Security Council has again failed to take action on the Israel-Hamas conflict despite a deepening humanitarian crisis in the Palestinian enclave of Gaza.

A rival text put forward by Moscow then failed to draw sufficient support. The US had toned down an initial draft released over the weekend after diplomats expressed shock at its failure to recognise the humanitarian crisis and its bold statement that Israel had a […]

Guterres says he’s shocked by misinterpretations of his statement to Security Council on Tuesday

Antonio Guterres says he was left “shocked” by the “misrepresentations” of his remarks regarding Hamas made on Tuesday during a meeting of the UN Security Council. “I am shocked by the misrepresentations by some of my statement … as if I was justifying acts of terror by Hamas.

UN chief says ‘clear violations of international humanitarian law’ in Gaza

Guterres also criticised Israel without naming it, saying, “protecting civilians does not mean ordering more than one million people to […]
