Everything is now antisemitic as Israel whines over UN ceasefire.

Israel are whining as much as you might have guessed they would, but can they be trusted to adhere to this ceasefire?
Right, so plenty of reason to celebrate it would seem as the UN Security Council finally manages to pass a ceasefire resolution, but it’s nowhere near enough in and of itself with so much more still to be done and indeed the biggest question of all is whether the UN will follow up on this ruling by now deploying peacekeepers to enforce it. The US, despite getting their own way by making it conditional upon hostage’s being released and it again only being a temporary month long break for Ramadan, still wouldn’t vote for it, decided to at least abstain this time rather than veto it, still too worried about Israel’s reaction presumably, because even they, like the rest of us could have guessed how they’d lash out. And lash out they have. The UN is now antisemitic, the vote is antisemitic, the UN Secretary-General is now antisemitic, you know how it goes. A ceasefire, peace even, are now basically antisemitic and it seems painfully obvious to all, that UN peacekeepers WILL be needed to enforce this ruling, because there is zero sign or prospect that Netanyahu will follow it.
Right, so we have a ceasefire, of a sort. It’s immediate, but it’s temporary. Israel are pi**ed at the US for not devotedly vetoing this, so now Israel is acting in defiance of international law if it doesn’t down tools immediately. It is actually the most minimal ask to get some sort of ceasefire right now across the line though, such is the ongoing pathetic performativeness by some nations on this matter though. Here’s what it actually calls for:
‘An immediate ceasefire for the month of Ramadan respected by all parties leading to a lasting sustainable ceasefire
The immediate and unconditional release of all hostages, as well as ensuring humanitarian access to address their medical and other humanitarian needs and that the parties comply with their obligations under international law in relation to all persons they detain.
The urgent need to expand the flow of humanitarian assistance to and reinforce the protection of civilians in the entire Gaza Strip.
The Council reiterates its demand for the lifting of all barriers to the provision of humanitarian assistance at scale, in line with international humanitarian law.’
So essentially what we have is a humanitarian pause again, rather than a ceasefire, with an aspiration for the ceasefire to become permanent. Given this is as far as the UK were prepared to go, this is why they finally voted for something instead of abstaining. There are calls for all hostages to be released on both sides unconditionally, although it is conditional because it’s part of why this ceasefire passed, it’s been one of the sticking points for the US, so by putting this in, they decided to abstain. The other sticking point I’ll come onto in a moment. The last thing it demands is humanitarian aid, food, shelter, medical supplies be allowed in unimpeded. That is the one thing all UN Security Council nations have been on the same page over, the humanitarian crisis, the starvation, that has to end.
