"How is this rogue state Israel allowed to present the West with two choices: either get dragged in to a regional war or continue being complicit in genocide.
"On @Channel4News this evening ahead of a UN Security Council vote on admitting Palestine as a member state."[3]

US veto

The United States vetoed a draft resolution at the UN Security Council which recommended granting the State of Palestine full membership in the United Nations.

The veto on Thursday by Israel’s main political and military backer had been expected ahead of the vote. Twelve countries voted in favour of the resolution, which was introduced by Algeria, while the United Kingdom and Switzerland abstained.[4]
