There are definitely effects on the British economy because of Brexit, just alone the loss in confidence in the British economy after the vote and the uncertainty following it.

I was merely pointing out that GDP is a tool to look at the economy as a whole, but it can not visualise more specific trends or inequalities, let alone those caused by Brexit.

Solely looking at GDP says little about the impacts of Brexit, especially on the impact it has on individuals. While it tells us the UK fares well on production capacity and economic growth, it says little on the welfare and well being of her citizens.

There is of course a lot of disparity of the origins in the data, and Tory governing most likely have its effects as well.

Point is, GDP is not a good measure on whether things are looking bright for individuals.

They speak more elegant… or French

Anrwerp is Belgium, though ;)

You are simplifying this extremely.

I wonder if there is a state willing to do this on their on accord without backing from the UN. Then, would Israel consider this as a breach of sovereignty? What is the risk for the peace keeping state if Israel considers this a breach of sovereignty, do you have the US + west against you?

being the weaker group, they could have requested neutral foreign troops to help guard their territories as a peace keeping mission at any time.

Did you forget Palestine is not recognised as a member state in the UN?

Also, confusing Palestinians with the terror group Hamas is disingenuous.

It is a shame the international community has taken so little effort to prevent bloodshed. The terrible terrorist attacks are the symptoms of the unhealthy and hostile environment. The numbers in the link below just show that there was enough reason to put more effort and discussion in this region.

Indeed, that is what had happened to the League of Nations and why the US never joined.

Also the UN is still an important platform where diplomatic relations are upheld even in dire situations. Even with Russia it is important to have some lines of discussion.
