Mind you at that time, the UN was essentially just the League of Nations, some puppet states that were bribed and/or threatened, and the arab states who unanimously against it.
And by imposing the partition plan instead of holding a plebiscite, the UN overtly violated its own charter.
It strikes me that what we have here is basically the plot of Frankenstein, played out over 80 years of world history...
That tracks.
Their favorite activity is blowing up Civilian infrastructure.
Civil, civilian and civilized.
Ironic that almost 100 years later Isreal would be come the next nazis

Never again (to us)
Given that they started the ethnic cleansing way back in 1948, it isn’t a surprise.
For all its faults, we haven't had a global thermal nuclear war yet. I credit the UN with part of that success. That is an amazing achievement given how much our species likes war and how we've had the capability for nuclear war for 80 years.
If we're talking about Netanyahu's body & office, I agree. It's unnecessary & should be wiped off the face of the Earth.
Is that why he ran the charter through a baby paper shredder as a political stunt?
