Poor deflection, your unattributed claim that 85% of Gaza was leveled to the reality that I provided which is 35%

Modify your claim........lol Your link points to a claim of 70% of civilian buildings, your original claim was 85% of the whole of Gaza leveled. That is not modification that is a weak attempt at covering up a lie. The actual figure is 35% remember that for the future

I read all of it. A US veto is not a foregone conclusion. Waking up tomorrow is not a forgone conclusion either............ No you did give a link to that claim that is a clear lie, I even added the link to the post where I asked you for it. No further debates with a dishonest member. Here is the link again. Numerous times I stated that Palestine deserves its own statehood as does Israel now get that link or forget any further responses from me.

If the proposed resolution contains that language then there's no reason to think the US will veto it Did you read the link or even the title? "US Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the council after Friday’s vote that the new resolution’s text “fails to support sensitive diplomacy in the region. Worse, it could actually give Hamas an excuse to walk away from the deal on the table.” “We should not move forward with any resolution that jeopardizes the ongoing negotiations” being carried out by the United States, Qatar and Egypt, she said, warning that if the diplomacy isn’t supported “we may once again find this council deadlocked.” “I truly hope that that does not come about,” Thomas-Greenfield said. The United States has vetoed three resolutions demanding a ceasefire in Gaza, the most recent an Arab-backed measure. That measure was supported by 13 members with one abstention in a February 20 vote." Still waiting for a specific link to your claim that Israel levelled 85% of Gaza..................

Another UN Security Council vote on Monday, this time the US will probably veto it. Russia and China appear to be backing it. UNSC vote set for Monday on new Gaza ceasefire resolution; US unlikely to back it The brief resolution scheduled for a vote Monday demands an immediate humanitarian ceasefire for Ramadan “leading to a permanent sustainable ceasefire.” It also demands “the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages” and emphasizes the urgent need to protect civilians and deliver humanitarian aid throughout the Gaza Strip. The draft does not include provisions supporting ongoing diplomatic efforts to secure a ceasefire — an element that was highlighted in the US resolution. US Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the council after Friday’s vote that the new resolution’s text “fails to support sensitive diplomacy in the region. Worse, it could actually give Hamas an excuse to walk away from the deal on the table.” https://www.timesofisrael.com/unsc-vote-set-for-this-week-on-new-gaza-ceasefire-resolution-us-unlikely-to-back-it/

As expected after cutting through all the noise, aid to Israel and further suspension of funding to UNRWA Biden signs spending bill which halts UNRWA funding through 2025 The bill also forces the UN and other international organizations funded to assess and report on efforts to combat anti-Israel bias and antisemitism and to vet staff for connections to terrorists, the US Congress early on Saturday overwhelmingly passed a $1.2 trillion budget bill, which included a ban on US funding for UNRWA until 2025. The bill also eliminates funding for the UN Commission of Inquiry against Israel and fully funds the annual US security commitment of $3.3 billion for Israel, which allocates funding for the Iron Dome and other defensive systems. "The historic ban on US funding to @UNRWA that passed today with an overwhelming bipartisan support, demonstrates what we knew all along: UNRWA is part of the problem and can not be part of the solution. UNRWA will not be a part of Gaza's landscape in the aftermath of Hamas," Israel's Foreign Minister Israel Katz said in a post on X. https://www.jpost.com/international/article-793359

Talks ongoing in Qatar this coming week on hostage deal etc. Significant that Hamas's Gaza terrorist leader's Deputy has joined them. Israel has accepted a more generous deal with concessions to Hamas stricter demands on the Palestinian prisoners to be released but now again waiting for news. Report: Sinwar’s deputy is at hostage talks in Qatar; Israeli team set to stay several days The Israeli delegation is continuing negotiations tonight on a hostage-truce deal in Qatar, and the process is advancing, Channel 12 reports. The talks involve not only delegations from Israel, the US, Qatar and Egypt, but also a Hamas delegation including Ismail Haniyeh, Khaled Mashaal, and Khalil al-Haya, a deputy to Hamas’s Gaza chief Yahya Sinwar, the report says. Channel 12, echoing an earlier report from the Walla news site, says there are major differences on the issue of how many and which Palestinian security prisoners would be freed — prompting the US to present a compromise proposal. The original Paris framework from last month provided for 400 security prisoners to be freed for 40 hostages — women, children, the sick and elderly — in the first phase of a deal. The new US compromise is “more generous” for Hamas, but has been accepted by Israel, says Channel 12. The teams are now waiting for a response from Gaza, which could take hours or days. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/report-sinwars-deputy-is-at-hostage-talks-in-qatar-israeli-team-set-to-stay-several-days/

You were the one with no links first..............lol and you still have no link for that false claim that 85% of buildings in Gaza have been levelled. Waiting for it. Yes number of Hamas killed given by Israel, same as the number of Palestinians killed are given by Hamas Israel has said it killed some 13,000 Hamas members in Gaza fighting

Likewise....

Who told you 85% of buildings in Gaza have been levelled? over 13,000 terrorists killed how does that make at least 20,000 civilians killed?

No its you spreading conspiracy nonsense like I said. It will be the Jews did it next

Cherry picked you mean

That's the same link as the OP...............lol

Why would you do that, its exactly the same link from the OP, the FT

No that's not you being a cynic, its you spreading conspiracy nonsense a bit like Alex Jones who is claiming it was the CIA

Topic on that already, no need to discuss it here too. US urged Ukraine to halt strikes on Russian oil refineries https://aseannow.com/topic/1323056-us-urged-ukraine-to-halt-strikes-on-russian-oil-refineries

No, the real issue is that 11 member states voted for the resolution, only 3 against.

Stop the lies. I am from London, have zero ties to Israel. However even if I were from Israel it makes absolutely no difference to my opinions or how they should be perceived. I would report this but prefer to leave it up to show you for what you are.

Russia said..............yea ok The US said: After the vote, the US envoy, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, said Russia and China had opposed the resolution because they could not bring themselves to support the clauses in it condemning Hamas. “The second reason behind this veto is not just cynical, it's also petty,” Thomas-Greenfield said. “Russia and China simply did not want to vote for a resolution that was penned by the United States because they would rather see us fail than to see this council succeed.”

It was release of all hostages for a 6 week ceasefire at least, of course they would want it, its a far better deal than the current talks in Qatar

Yea I bet the terrorist's Hamas does. If it wasn't for Russia and China hostages could be on their way home soon and a ceasefire in place. Hamas voices ‘appreciation’ for China, Russia veto of US-backed Gaza resolution “We express our appreciation for the position of Russia, China and Algeria who rejected the biased American resolution of aggression against our people,” the Iran-backed terror group says in a statement released last night. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/hamas-voices-appreciation-for-china-russia-veto-of-us-backed-gaza-resolution/

Yes I agree with you, they are believable to you I know but still could not care less about what you believe or not

Who cares, this is about terrorists trying to ambush the IDF, I'm finished entertaining your deflection
