I have said it and will continue to say it.
The United Nations headquarters should be relocated to a neutral country.
It has lost its relevance being in America.
America does not respect the rule of international laws.
It supports genocide.
It supports terrorism.
It supports warmongering.
The world should not fold its arms and watch United Nations fall to ruin, because it can no longer meet its obligations to member nations.
Especially now that we have an awkward bull in the White House.
What difference will the relocation make? America remains the highest donor to the US.

It's so obvious right now Israel is simply hiding behind one finger. They can't hide anymore.

Palestine statehood is not about if but when. Using Hamas as excuse won't sell anymore.

Gaza is the biggest open prison in the world while Israelis continue to build houses in West Bank with disregard for territorial agreement.

Enough is enough. Israel should allow Palestine breath.

America is the last straw Israel is holding onto but that will definitely break. The leftist don't even want to hear Zionism and anytime a younger generation president emerge from democratic party, it's game over for Israel.

They can't even use the bible to justify the ongoing atrocity. Yes YHWH promised them the land as a result of the covenant he established with their ancestor Abraham.

But God clearly told the Israelites to treat foreigners in their midst as one of them and to give them their own inheritance in the land.

Ezekiel 47
21 “You are to distribute this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel. 22 You are to allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners residing among you and who have children. You are to consider them as native-born Israelites; along with you they are to be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel. 23 In whatever tribe a foreigner resides, there you are to give them their inheritance,” declares the Sovereign Lord.


U cant choose what to follow in the ordinances of God. You can't continue to shout God gave u the land but refuse to acknowledge the rights of foreigners living amongst u.

Palestinians have been living on that land as a people as far back 250 BC. They are the ancient Arameans, Edomites, Moabites, Ammonites.

Israel has no leg to stand on at all. Not even biblically.

It is time for Israel to end the war genocide in gaza.

Fighting terrorism is never easy, fighting a faceless and hidden enemy can be very tiring and difficult but the rate innocent children are being killed is a cause for concern.

Plus Israel doesn’t seem to understand they are in fact raising a new generation of terrorists that would afflict them, these Palestine children might not fully understand what is going on but they can see; then they grow up i can’t imagine what would be on their agenda for Isreal. It is a lose-lose situation.
So you believed the children of Israel too have not been raised to always see the children of Palestinians as their arc enemies they must not be given a breathing space.

That is the leftists for you. Extremely brainless humans, always acting before thinking.

Meanwhile, the Colombia is a country riddled with numerous problems, this liberal president left his own country's problems to carry a Middle East issue on his head.

Honestly, I hate liberals with everything in me...
You hate liberals but you conservatives always claim to be Christians but you are hateful with all your energy because some set of people have a different ideology from yours.
I am not supporting HAMAS but you are obviously in support of the killing of innocent people by Israel especially children. Is the killings not enough? Where is your Christianity?
Regardless what the man said is the truth but he wouldn't have said that on US soil.

Colombia's first leftist President, Gustavo Petro has been a strong voice against Israel, calling the Gaza war 'a genocide' and accusing Trump of complicity. At the UNGA, he said Diplomacy and words isn't working on the Gaza situation and proposed the UN to vote for a very powerful army with guns and weapons, drawn from countries that do not support the genocide to defend Palestine.

After his speech at the UNGA, he joined a 'Free Palestine' rally on the streets of New York, urging the US Army to disobey the orders of President Donald Trump.

Petro reacts to his visa revocation via facebook:


Gustavo Petro
President of Colombia

Gaza is small compared to what Nigerian government did to the Great Igbos in 60s. Killing over Three millions of biafrans were killed with starvation .

Have you been leaving under the rock all this while?

The US has been using it's military and its CIA to overthrow regimes that do not bend to its interest all over the world...and now they are gunning for regime change in Venezuela and want to cause upheavals in the region which the colombia president comes from

So, it's only logical for Gustavo to ask the US military to cause chaos in US same way they US military has been doing in other regions of the world..

US can dish out but cry wolf when their violent rhetorics is reflected back to them...

The US should not be challenged but instead be allowed to act like a bloodthirsty bully for the past 80 years.

How much damage and crimes to humanity is the US guilty of?

-Dropped 2 nukes on civilians, only case of using nukes on humanity

-Instigated the Korean War

-Instigated the Vietnam War

-Caused the Cuban Missile Crisis that almost led to nuclear Armageddon

-Armed Mujahideen against the USSR, a precursor to Al Qaeda

-Bay of Pigs invasion, and arming the rebels

-Armed Saddam Hussain against Iran

-Gulf War 1

-Somalia "Day of the Rangers" debacle

-Invaded Afghanistan

-Invaded Iraq

-Armed ISIS against the Syrian government

-Armed Israel and provided cover for the Zionist colonial and apartheid government against the Palestinians

-Supports Israeli genocide in Gaza and the West Bank

The US is the greatest threat to mankind, not the few radical islamist terrorists (most of whom are propped up by Israel and Qatar, both allies of the US).
Thanks for your very educative insights 🙏👍

You realise that he could have gone back to Colombia and say what he wants and nobody will complain, you can't as a sitting visiting president join protesters and start protesting in your hosts country na

If only you all know what happened in Afghanistan then you will know that all the devils are on earth already. We will eventually implode, the defenders of democracy are actually demonstrating how crazy they really are. How can you defend freedom and justice when you have blood of all over you? How can you defend freedom and justice when money and power informs every decision you make?

Trump does not support terrorism that is why he is against terrorist nation's like Iran, Palestine and part of Nigeria.

Arrested for what? Has America not done worse in the territories of other countries? Isn't that why we clamour for good precedents by following the international laws with total respect even if it negates or does not support how you feel or your various biases? Now, everybody is using emotions and reacting to Western disregard to extant laws, suddenly you want to do
international laws cos it favours you situation now.

First ask Hamas to immediately release the hostages.
Those presidents on the side of Hamas do not understand what Israel is fighting for. Released hostages confirmed that many hostages in Gaza are being fed with faeces and some asked to dig their own grave. Terrorists are truly dangerous.
ISRAELI PM NETANYAHU MADE IT CLEAR AT THE UNGA THAT IF THE REMAINING 48 HOSTAGES ARE FREED TODAY, THEN THE WAR ENDS TODAY, PERIOD.
Stop saying rubbish
Recently the family of the hostages protested against netanyahu himself and said he is an obstacle to freeing the hostages
How can you be ordering the army to assasinate negotiators and diplomats who you are negotiating with anytime you feel a deal is close to being reached
Who does thathuh
Does that kind of person really want a peace deal
Dont be ignorant please

The way you’re commenting on this topic right now, criticizing the man, tell me you’re not carrying Middle East issue on your head even though you have different opinion. What is wrong with giving your voice to course? Is he not a world leader too? You think his influence only lies in his country?
