Preface
Israel is such a bully!
Recently, there has been a lot of international controversy about whether Palestine can become a full member of the United Nations.
The United Nations has stated that Palestine has met the conditions for full membership in the United Nations, and it is time to give it status.
Unexpectedly, this incident caused extreme dissatisfaction in Israel, and even arrogantly issued a warning to the United Nations!
If the United Nations agrees to Pakistan's full membership, the United States will stop funding the United Nations.
After seeing what Israel was doing, many netizens scoffed at his approach.
What's going on here, and what exactly is Israel doing?
Palestine entered the United Nations
Recently, there has been a lot of uproar about Palestine wanting to enter the United Nations.
As early as April 3, 2024, Palestine once again applied to become a full member of the United Nations.
Guangming Network, April 3, 2024, "Palestine Applies to Become a Full Member of the United Nations Again"
According to the information, this is another request from the United Nations for the United Nations to reconsider their full membership of the United Nations in April, following the request made by the Palestinians in September 2011.
On April 18, the UN Security Council convened a meeting of the UN Security Council with the main purpose of soliciting opinions from UN member states to decide whether Palestine could become a full member of the UN.
According to the information, the draft on the question of whether Palestine can become a full member of the United Nations received 12 votes in favour, 2 abstentions and 1 vote against in the Security Council.
However, the United States voted against this vote, and the United States also exercised its veto power to reject the draft.
Observer.com, April 19, 2024, "Palestine's "accession to the United Nations" was vetoed by the United States, and China expressed its position
The vote of the United States can be said to have shattered the decades-old dream of the Palestinian people, and it has also caused the United States to be condemned by many countries and organizations.
They condemned the United States for going against the will of the international community, confusing right from wrong, and wantonly using its veto power for personal gain.
Even Russia's Permanent Coalition Representative Nebenzia said that the United States is using its veto to use its veto in such a situation when the overwhelming majority of members of the international community support Palestine becoming a member of the United Nations.
In response, the United States has decided that Palestinian membership must be the result of direct negotiations between Israel and Palestine.
The question of Palestine is at the heart of the Middle East issue, and it is not just about one country, but directly related to international fairness and justice.
China Economic Net, April 22, 2024 "Three Questions Asked by the United States to Reject Palestine's Application for Formal Membership in the United Nations"
Under the premise that the Palestinian-Israeli conflict cannot be resolved for a long time, the Palestinian people have also been unable to realize their legitimate national rights to independent statehood, and the United States has used this as an excuse to exercise its veto power and refuse to allow Palestine to join the United Nations.
According to the latest news, the United Nations convened the 10th emergency special session of the UN General Assembly on 10 May to discuss the Palestinian-Israeli issue and will continue to vote on whether Palestine can become a full member.
According to yesterday's draft by the United Arab Emirates, the United Nations has recognized Palestine as a peace-loving country and is willing to fulfil its obligations under the Charter, and therefore has a good chance of becoming a full Member of the United Nations.
Although the United Nations does not directly grant Palestine the right to become a member of the United Nations, it is likely that this vote will grant Palestine similar powers.
For example, Palestine is given the right to act and speak as a Member State in plenary sessions of the General Assembly, but not to vote.
This practice of the United Nations is legitimate, which can be said to be legitimate, but it is opposed by Israel.

Outrageous Israel
Israel, however, did not see it that way, and even condemned such practices of the United Nations, claiming that such practices violated the purposes of the Charter of the United Nations.
It even issued a warning to the United Nations: "If Palestine becomes a member, then the United States will stop funding the United Nations!" ”
Global Times, May 8, 2024, "Israel warns: 'The United States will stop funding the United Nations'"
There is a reason why Israel says this, because it is understood that the relevant laws of the United States do have clear provisions on this situation, and the United States Government cannot independently grant full membership to any United Nations organization that "does not possess the attributes of an internationally recognized state."
This was the case in 2011, when the United States stopped paying its dues to the organization after it admitted Palestine as a member of UNESCO, and there were huge arrears for many years until the organization was officially launched on December 31, 2018.
It wasn't until last year that the United States rejoined UNESCO and pledged to repay $619 million in arrears.
And Israel has always done this because of the conflict between Palestine and Israel, and the two countries have always been at odds over this.
Observer.com, December 3, 2023, "Israel Faces Increasing U.S. Pressure"
However, instead of improving the matter for the better, the United States has been using its veto power to safeguard Israel's interests.
According to data, since the outbreak of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the United States has exercised its veto power on the issue of the ceasefire in Gaza five times in the Security Council, four of which were to block the ceasefire in Gaza, and this time it has become the only member of the Security Council that has prevented Palestine from formally becoming a member of the United Nations.
More importantly, the United States has vetoed a total of 89 Security Council resolutions in the Security Council, 45 of which have vetoed resolutions criticizing Israel, and more than half of these vetoes have been used to criticize Israeli resolutions, and the purpose of this is self-evident.
Some people say that everything the United States does is a show, and the United States is trying to prevent the escalation of the situation in the Middle East, while continuing to push for Israeli military assistance.
Just as Israel has recently escalated its military campaign against Gaza, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken began his seventh trip to the Middle East since the outbreak of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict last October.
In this tense situation of international relations, the United States ostensibly restricts Israel, claiming that the United States does not support Israel in waging a large-scale war against Rafah, and if it does not protect the local people, the United States opposes this matter.
However, in the eyes of the outside world, the United States will not really stop Israel from invading Rafah, after all, they are largely supporters of this conflict.
China Daily, May 3, 2024, "U.S. media: It's time to promote the 'normalization' of relations between the United States and Israel"
As Austin mentioned in his speech, the United States will remain Israel's closest friend in the world, and our support for Israel's security cannot be questioned.
Although both the United States and Israel have expressed opposition to Palestine becoming a full member of the United Nations, they have been unable to prevent the convening of the United Nations conference, nor can they prevent this almost certain thing.
brief summary
Whether Palestine can become a full Member of the United Nations depends on the emergency joint meeting of the United Nations convened by the United Nations today.
Looking forward to a perfect ending and a satisfactory outcome for all countries!
