Why is the UN still operating. I don’t get it. Shut it down. It’s is one sided for Hamas, hezbollah and Iran

I expect all of this to improve after January 20. No acceptances before then.

UN must be defunded and thrown out of the US. Let them have their HQ somewhere in Somali.

Israel cannot expect Socialist Guterres will include any Israeli sympathizer into the list.

Is is almost unthinkable to see and believe that such demented, shameful, appalling radicalization, is allowed to occur in our country. Hasn’t the US seen and absorbed what has happened to Europe?

Israel does not have to accept as immediate, any Jew hater that the UN wishes to impose.
