Whoever was saying that UN Condemnations are the fault of the Soviet Bloc get a grip.
Most people in this forum probably were not alive to remember such a thing.
Lets stick with somewhat modern history here. And it is still a weaksauce excuse.
Oh noes it is all the fault of the godless commies decades ago that Fundamentalist Israel is a terrorist state surrounded by other extremist fundamentalist terrorist states. How dare the UN point it out.
Edit: I tried to go back and find where someone was speaking of this to me, but this thread is a mess that is raising my blood pressure. Not worth it.
I was the one that pointed it out.
The US and the Soviets were using proxies in the ME.
The Soviets were aligned with the Arabs and they were also still going after the Jews inside the USSR.
Look at all the resolutions against Israel and see who sponsored them.
Defenders of the Palestinians want to try and point out that Israel should honor the UN resolutions but completely ignore the politics of such.
And those of us that were around to actually see the coverage of the 4 main conflicts realize what happened and what the Arab and Soviet blocs were trumpeting.
Some also saw what the Palestinians/PLO did in the 80's once their sponsors realilzed that they has a set of pawns ripe for the mainupulation.
