As Israel prepares for a ground invasion of Rafah, the US-authored resolution presented to the UN Security Council merely noted an “imperative” for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Algeria, Russia, and China rejected the resolution, stating that it had failed to deliver on the core demand for a ceasefire.
The US-led draft, which took weeks to reach a vote, stated the “imperative” for “an immediate and sustained ceasefire to protect civilians on all sides”, facilitating “essential” aid delivery and supporting ongoing talks between Israel and Hamas militants to create a sustainable end to the hostilities, tied to the release of hostages.
The vetoed draft would have made imperative an immediate and sustained ceasefire in Gaza, with an “urgent need to expand the flow of humanitarian assistance” to all civilians and lifting “all barriers” to delivering aid
How exactly would’ve this bill ‘not helped in any way’?
Ah yes, let’s classify calling for aid deliveries to the people of Gaza ‘not helping’, because not all demands are met. Fuck those starving people, we want all of our points met.
US could literally tell Israel to open the border and let aid in any time. Instead, they send weapons to kill people while blocking serious ceasefire resolutions. Try putting a bit more effort into your trolling.

But they won’t. End of story. What are you going to do about it? Get all the help for the people currently suffering that you can get, or stomp your foot while Gazans starve? I know what you’ve chosen.
That’s right, they won’t and that makes US a direct participant in the genocide. End of story. They’re not trying to get help to people, they’re literally doing the opposite of that while doing these kinds stunts so that online trolls can pretend that they’re doing something positive.
Wrong. Russia and China are the ones aiding in a genocide with that veto. They want Israel to continue to slaughter Gazans, because it will reflect negatively on the US in the public eye. As if Russia and China would really care about brown muslims getting massacred. The US-backed resolution would’ve brought aid and charted a path to a ceasefire. It’s not the ideal resolution, but in politics you will never get to ideal. You take what you can get and work from there. But I’m well aware that your primary motivation is dunking on the US as well, so you’ll fit right in with Russia and China.
US vetoed multiple actual ceasefire resolutions, this resolution did not call for a ceasefire and did not help people of Gaza in any way.
Don’t mind me, just leaving this UN news report on the vetoed resolution here: https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/03/1147856

The article in the submission explains that in detail. Maybe try reading it?

Seriously put more effort into your trolling, it’s embarrassing.
Bro, how many other fucking resolutions did we veto?
How long did it take for us to even start fucking airdropping something?
But yet we can ship fucking weapons every day and a half.
We are the bad guys
