A former top United Nations official in New York joins us for an in-depth interview about why he has resigned after publicly accusing the U.N. of failing to address what he calls a "text-book case of genocide" unfolding in Gaza. Craig Mokhiber is a longtime international human rights lawyer who served as director of the New York Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. His resignation letter has gone viral. In one of his first interviews since leaving his post, Mokhiber tells _Democracy Now!_ the U.N. follows a "different set of rules" when addressing Israel's violations of international law, refusing to utilize its enforcement mechanisms and thus "effectively" acting as "a smokescreen behind which we have seen further and worsening dispossession of Palestinians." He says it is an "open secret inside the halls of the United Nations that the so-called two-state solution is effectively impossible," and calls for international actors to push for a "new paradigm" in the region based on "equality for all." We also discuss the inaction of the International Criminal Court, global suppression of pro-Palestinian advocacy, bad-faith accusations of antisemitism and more.

See, now they got both parties and voter bases dunking on them.

This is because over the years they've always tried to play both sides.

When Democrats tried to get rights for minorities/immigrants => they swooped in.
When Conservatives tried to get more benefits for white/white adjacent => they swooped in.

I'm not anti-Jew at all and do think they deserve equal rights like everyone else, but man you could see this coming.

Folks hate it when one side gets entitled treatment, but now they're seeing one group of people get convenient entitled treatment going both directions.

They got people big mad at them now, especially because they're not really "pure" white either nor are they some "pure" foreigner needing starter assistance. In the process, they're taking benefits that both voter bases' respective parties fought for.

Like I said earlier, they getting their wake up call because they've really pushed themselves to the point they think they can exterminate someone else, get a bunch of money in the process and nobody would be pissed.

America needs to catch a stray? Who should be the stray? Would you volunteer to be that stray since you want it so bad? Why would you wish that shyt on Americans?

Ya'll so fukking privileged you think war won't touch you so you wish harm on your own nation? You want Americans to die?

It's easy to say funny shyt out your mouth because you know as bad as the US is you know we'd never be Gaza.

Being critical is one thing but wishing harm on our own nation and citizens is wild.

I saying all that assuming you are American.

:manny: you think american citizens voted for this american military industrial complex???:leostare: you think the PEOPLE voted for america to elbow its way into foreign countries??? why do you think there was a huge backlash against the vietnam war??? I AM an american citizen and it seems we have no say so on foreign policy but the people that do always seem to put its people in the crosshairs for their greed.:leostare:
