    I think the use of veto in the UN is not relevant to present era anymore. That is not a reflection from democracy spirit (outdated).

      Who vetoed the resolution? The moron Bush? Not surprised! When the dirty idiot will be gone maybe some reason will come in the US foreign policies.

      Why am I not surprised by this Security Council veto. The US almost reflexively vetoes any motion that even is slightly critical of Israel (unless we are the authors, in which the criticism is of a slap-on-the-hand nature).

        No, no no......these are not people, they are terroists like the Nazi's. Or when the Nazies were in power, the Jews and Communists were deserving of atrocities. In any war, the side of right belongs to the one who writes the history books!

          i agree that veto is a silly thing to agree with these days. how can US say that they are democratic country when they can't follow majority decision?

          i think UN has lost its significance in world's peace.

          So Hamas can attack Israel but when Israel attacks back some how it's so bad. Is it Israels fault that Hamas attack them from peoples homes? No they are cowards who attack from the shadows.
