Israel Defends, UN Condemns

Israel just did what any country would do—it defended itself. After Hamas refused to allow safe passages and continued its attacks, Israel took action. And now, like clockwork, the United Nations is preparing to condemn Israel again. But why should anyone care? Everyone already knows the UN’s opinion, and it means nothing.

The UN acts as if it is the world’s moral authority, but time and time again, it proves the opposite. While Israel fights terrorists who target civilians, the UN focuses only on criticizing Israel. It doesn’t matter what the situation is. If Israel responds, the UN will find a way to blame it.

The truth is, the UN doesn’t actually care about peace. If it did, it would have condemned Hamas long ago. Hamas, a terrorist group, attacks Israel constantly. It launches rockets at homes, schools, and hospitals. It kidnaps and murders innocent people. But the UN barely says a word about that. Instead, it waits for Israel to react and then pretends to be outraged.

This isn’t new. The UN has spent decades protecting the worst regimes while attacking democratic countries. It allows brutal dictatorships like Iran, China, and Russia to sit on its human rights councils. These are countries that jail, torture, and kill their own people. Yet, somehow, the UN treats Israel as the real problem.

Now, after Hamas refused to let civilians escape and forced Israel to act, the UN will again call for a ceasefire. But let’s be honest—“ceasefire” is just another way of saying, “Let Hamas regroup so they can attack again later.” If the UN actually wanted peace, it would demand that Hamas surrender, not that Israel stop defending itself.

One of the worst parts of the UN’s hypocrisy is its support for UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. The UN claims this group helps Palestinian refugees, but in reality, it has been caught working with Hamas. Some of its employees even joined Hamas’s attack on Israeli civilians last October. And yet, instead of shutting down UNRWA, the UN keeps funding it. How can anyone take the UN seriously when it allows its own agencies to support terrorism?

The bigger question is: why does anyone, especially the U.S., still support the UN at all? The U.S. gives billions of dollars to this corrupt organization every year. In return, the UN constantly attacks America’s allies and pushes policies that hurt American interests. It wastes money on failed programs and allows dictators to use it as a tool against free nations. If the U.S. cut its funding, the UN would collapse under its own failures.

Of course, some people say the U.S. should stay in the UN to “have influence.” But what influence? The UN ignores America’s voice and votes against it most of the time. Staying in the UN hasn’t changed its anti-Israel bias, stopped wars, or held dictators accountable. All it does is force the U.S. to pay for an organization that works against it.

Israel will not stop defending itself just because the UN says so. The UN’s words have no power, no meaning, and no impact. They are nothing more than noise. The only people who still pretend the UN matters are the ones who benefit from its corruption.

If the UN truly cared about peace, human rights, or justice, it would stop protecting terrorists and dictators. But it won’t, because that’s not what the UN does. The UN exists to give weak leaders a platform to pretend they matter, while real countries handle real problems.

So let the UN do what it always does—talk, complain, and pass useless resolutions. Meanwhile, Israel will do what it has always done—survive.
