The UN is in need of serious reform.

For example, it's hard to comprehend how a country like Russia is not suspended?

A country which signed the Charter, and is member of the security council, is trying to annex a country of 40 million people, claiming they and their culture don't exist.

They don't even hide the genocide intent, and yet Guterres is visiting the BRICS conference in Russia legitimizing the regime. Despicable.

Whatever Russia is doing pales in comparison with what Israel has done for the past 70 years.

And if you compare what Russia has done in the same time frame?

Oh well. We certainly didn't help it doing it or gave it diplomatic support, in any case.

Besides, ethnic cleansing and genocide are their own special kind of evil- I'm not sure Russia is guilty also of that.

Putin’s Russia is quite literally guilty of ethnic cleansing, and not only with Ukrainians.

you are perfectly correct, you are being downvoted because zionists hate facts that poke holes in their false narratives.

So you're dismissing Ukrainian soldiers, who have no choice but to defend themselves, their country, and their families from genocide?
Re:Israel launched a dozen attacks on UN troops in Lebanon, ... by aaomidi on Friday October 25, 2024 @09:19AM (#41944985)
No I was comparing the deliberate targeting of civilians.
Re:Israel launched a dozen attacks on UN troops in Lebanon, ... by libertine on Friday October 25, 2024 @10:14AM (#41945525)
Would you consider medical facilities civilian targets? Hospitals, Maternities?

Because Russia has struck more than 1.500 medical facilities, including a Maternity and a Children's Hospital.

By the way, this is also a common tactic, which was recurrently used in Chechnya.

I'm comparing the number of people killed. I'm not here defending Russia.

One of these we have 0 control over (Russia). The other one (Israel) we're funding, supporting, aiding, and abetting.

Re:Israel launched a dozen attacks on UN troops in Lebanon, ... by Teever on Friday October 25, 2024 @04:46PM (#41949566)
We have control over Russia. We have not fully sanctioned them and in the past the US was more than willing to trade with Russia or even give them money.

I just don't think you are aware of the scale of the event.

Do you realize that in less than 3 years Russia has caused more than 1.000.000 casualties, Russia has kidnapped more than 25.000 Children, and made 10.000.000 people into refugees some of them filtrated in Russia?

It's like the destruction of +1,500 medical facilities, deliberately, isn't much of a big deal...

Both are horrible events but at completely different scales. We're talking about a country of 40.000.000 people who was at peace, posed no threat to anyone, and never attacked any neighboring country. There are several days of +1.000 casualties - these are human beings, I don't know why you're deliberately dehumanizing Ukrainians and Russians.

Europe hasn't seen anything like this since WW2, even after we witnessed the genocide of Chechens at the hands of Russia, another one.

What is the point of this victim Olympics?

Both things could be bad at the same time.
