I don't want to dwell on the usual suspect countries that never miss an opportunity to smack Israel.
However, it is astonishing that the following countries have agreed to the resolution: #Belgium, #Ireland, #Luxembourg, #Portugal and #Slovenia
(I admit that these countries are all in the #EU, so I have not chosen them entirely at random. I could write a thousand-page essay on what is wrong in these countries. However, in my opinion I am sure that these countries are not practicing politically motivated anti-Semitism.)
So what can be so horrible about the resolution? source: https://undocs.org/Home/Mobile?FinalSymbol=A%2FRES%2F77%2F247
Decides, in accordance with Article 96 of the Charter of the United
Nations, to request the International Court of Justice, pursuant to Article 6 5 of the
Statute of the Court, to render an advisory opinion on the following questions,
considering the rules and principles of international law, including the Charter of the
United Nations, international humanitarian law, international human rights law,
relevant resolutions of the Security Council, the General Assembly and the Human
Rights Council, and the advisory opinion of the Court of 9 July 2004:(a) What are the legal consequences arising from the ongoing violation by
Israel of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination, from its prolonged
#occupation, #settlement and annexation of the Palestinian territory occupied since
1967, including measures aimed at altering the demographic composition, character
and status of the Holy City of #Jerusalem, and from its adoption of related
discriminatory legislation and measures?(b) How do the policies and practices of Israel referred to in paragraph 18 (a)
above affect the legal status of the occupation, and what are the legal consequences
that arise for all States and the United Nations from this status?
As written, it is only about an advisory opinion without consequences, since both Israel and the U.S. do not accept the court.

“The world history of diplomacy is marked by a new milestone in the senseless arrogance of the Israeli ambassador to Colombia in relation to Gustavo Petro, the president of the republic. What a shame. At a minimum, ask for forgiveness and leave” (c) Colombian Foreign Minister Alvaro Leyva
Earlier, the Israeli Foreign Ministry suspended all transactions with Colombia after the Colombian president compared Israel's actions in #Gaza with the actions of the Nazis in #Auschwitz.
The President of Colombia also stated that his country will not support the Israeli #genocide of the Palestinians and if it is necessary, relations with Israel will be suspended.

The Japanese immediately found themselves with a comical new #slang term, #bushusuru which literally means “to do a Bush.” By the end of the month, people were using the term on nights out to warn their friends of piles of vomit in the street as a joke about the U.S. president.

The Treaty of Kadesh, signed around 1259 BC, was an ancient peace treaty between Pharaoh Ramses II of Egypt and King Hattusili III of the Hittites. It followed the inconclusive Battle of Kadesh and aimed to resolve territorial disputes. The treaty, known from inscriptions in Egypt and Hittite capital, established provisions for prisoner exchange, trade routes, and mutual defense. It emphasized diplomacy and cooperation. The Treaty of Kadesh is considered a significant milestone in international diplomacy, showcasing the possibility of resolving conflicts through negotiation rather than perpetual warfare.

The US administration has no intention to search for a diplomatic solution to the conflict in Ukraine and keeps sending weapons to the Kiev government, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said on Saturday, commenting on another package of US military aid.
"The United States goes on pumping its wards with new batches of lethal weapons. The allocation of such impressive financial resources for these purposes proves one thing: Washington does not intend to look for ways to a diplomatic settlement of the conflict," the Russian diplomat said in a statement, released by the embassy’s press service.
He went on to say that officials from the current Washington administration "have done nothing to bring the Zelenskiy regime to the negotiating table."

Douglas Macgregor is interviewed by Glenn Deisen and talks about the military situation in Ukraine and the political situation surrounding the war. Date: 2023-06-02
Key points from Douglas Macgregor:
* The west has shown no interest in a #diplomatic settlement
* The Russian objectives are to either ...
* ... create a diplomatic solution (where their security concerns are respected)
* ... or to destroy the Ukrainian army
* and the actions taken by the Russian military reflects these objectives
* The Russian #security concerns are reasonable
* The capabilities of the Russian military are higher now than they were when the war started
* If the west continues to show no interest in #diplomacy Russia will eventually go into the west of Ukraine
To be clear: The points above is what i took from what Douglas Macgregor said. I don't necessarily agree with this myself
