Trump administration refuses to back UN resolution condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine

[VitaMan]

Can the MAGAs take a crack at explaining this ? Now the US is voting with North Korea, while 95 nations voted for its passage.


No need for the usual suspects to post.

Guess Vlad grabbed him by the pussy. Who else was on Russia's side on this vote?

[Schwarzer Ritter]

Lets stop the killing before pointing fingers. Plenty of time for that later. Trump is trying to be an honest broker and you can't be biased before hand.

[BobbyBeeBrown]

Oh good God. There is no way the word "honest" applies to anything that Trump does.

He claimed we were "talked into" giving Ukraine $350 Billion. And that Ukraine started this war. The lies never stop.

Putin is getting massive wood over Trump selling Ukraine out on this, and the small amount of credibility we had left in Europe is gone.

Yup. No reason to be biased.

Putin controls Trump. Even makes him do ass to mouth along with playing the Rusty Trumbone. Next it’ll be a dirty Sanchez. Trump truly is Putin’s bitch.

Breaking News: The UN—our beloved global babysitter—has once again graced us with their infinite wisdom. Because, obviously, a bunch of unelected bureaucrats with a track record of rampant corruption, anti-Semitic bias, and “peacekeepers” who seem to mistake peacekeeping for human trafficking should totally be running the world.

Nothing screams “justice” like condemning Israel every five minutes while ignoring actual genocides. Nothing screams “security” like deploying troops who make life less safe for the people they’re “helping.” And nothing screams “moral authority” like turning a blind eye to their own scandals while lecturing the rest of us.

But sure, let’s keep pretending the UN is the beacon of human rights and not the bureaucratic parasite it actually is. Maybe next year, they'll vote to give Iran the "Women's Rights Leadership" award again.

Not true. I am not ignoring the genocide that Israel is waging in Gaza one bit. They aren't quite ramped up in the West Bank and Lebanon yet, but I have faith that they are close to a final solution there also. They just need a few more Billion $ in arms from us. There are parts of the West Bank that are really nice too. Might make a better spot for a resort than Gaza. Gonna have to figure out a way to evict all the Israeli settlers too. But since they are there ILLEGALLY, it shouldn't be tough.

On a more serious note, here's a gentle reminder: criticism of Israel is not anti-semitism.

But that will go completely unheeded, I predict.

Not sure who woke up Trump this morning. Mebbe call the White House and ask.

Always weird if we're voting along with Russia, China and North Korea

The Trump Administration is looking for an end to this senseless war, which is a lot more than you can say for Biden and the neoconservative establishment.

When Democrat George Mitchell was bringing peace to northern Ireland, do you think he would have signed on to a UN resolution condemning the IRA? Hell no, he wouldn't have.

Exactly right, Tiny. ... Trump is looking for the end
of the war... And The UN isn't.

How about forcing Putin to take a loss and take his troops home. That’s the only real end to the war. Capitulation will only cause more strife rather than less. Dove Tiny have you not learned anything from history.

Trump doesn’t give a shit about people dying in Europe (or the US for that matter). He is just trying to appease his master. He needs Putin to pat his head and tell him "who's a good boy?"

So how do you propose to do that, force Putin out? Send American troops into Ukraine? Risk a nuclear war? Because that’s the only way you’ll get him out..

As to history, did you learn anything from Vietnam or Iraq? How about the help we provided the mujahideen in Afghanistan against the USSR, that backfired big time after we invaded and occupied the same country? How about our experience when we installed nuclear weapons in Turkey aimed at Moscow in the 1960’s? The resulting Cuban missile crisis may have been the closest we came to nuclear war.

Russia has the largest nuclear armory in the world. It is justifiably aggrieved by NATO enlargement, which occurred after assurances to the contrary by a number of western diplomats and politicians.

Apparently we’re not reading the same history books.

Thank you.

Sorry Tiny. Can't abide by the red part. Not one damn bit. Not if "justifiably" means they get to invade to vent their disapproval.

There were other ways to work that out. No one was threatening Russian sovereignty.
