re: #33 lawhawk

That’s absolutely true - some countries are able to get away with mass slaughter precisely because they’ve got a powerful benefactor thwarting any action more than a weakly worded statement from the UN.

All too often those countries are Russia and China - both of which have long histories of not only backing regimes that engaged in democide, but carrying it out themselves.

And many of these nations are on the UN human rights commission! And then they wag fingers at Israel that does none of that stuff.
