Introduction
In the United Nations, five countries (called thePermanent Members of the Security Council) can
veto a United Nations Security Council resolution. Thesefive are the USA, the UK, France, Russia (USSRbefore1990), and China (Taiwan before 1971).
This is a list of these resolutions vetoed by the USA aswell as resolutions in the General Assembly of the United

Nations where the USA vote is against the majority of theworld. The USA used its veto over 70 times during the20th century. On the majority of occasions, the USAvetoed resolutions that were favoured by the majority ofthe world's nations.
Very little of the USA's voting patterns is reported in theWestern media. When other countries consider votingagainst a resolution put forward by the USA, they areusually demonised in the Western media and the wholebasis of the United Nations called into question.
The United Nations and its voting system was set up atthe end ofWorld War II by the victorious nations fromthat conflict. There is, perhaps, an argument to modify theUnited Nations voting system and make it morerepresentitive of the modern world.
Even with its faults, the United Nations is not a few
people in an office - it is the world community. It is the
rest of the world - the 94% of the world's population thatis not from the USA. By damning and ignoring the UnitedNations, the USA is snubbing the majority of the world'spopulation. This will not make the USA more populararound the world.
As one commentator on USA baseball in the UK noted:
"Only the USA could have a World Series and notinvite the rest of the world". This is the politicalequivalent.

suffers no penalties because it has USA approval,protection, and active assistance. The partners alsodeny Palestinians any right to return to land fromwhich they were expelled, so 140+ contrary UnitedNations votes, and two Security Council Resolutions
(both vetoed by the United States) have no effect;and in a remarkable Orwellian process ofdoublethink - and double morality - Israel is free to
expel more Palestinians in the same time frame inwhich their protector spent billions and great moralenergy in a campaign to return worthy victims inKosovo."
"Another remarkable Orwellian process is this: theabused and beggared Palestinian people periodicallyrebel as their conditions deteriorate and more landis taken, homes are demolished, and they are
treated with great ruthlessness and discrimination.Many are among the hundreds of thousandsexpelled earlier, or who have still not forgotten theirrelatives killed and injured by Israeli violence overmany years - and Palestinian deaths by Israeli armsalmost surely exceed Israeli deaths from 'terrorism'by better than 15 to 1. And after this long history ofexpulsion and murder they are still under assault.In this context, if they rise up in revolt at theiroppressors this is not 'freedom fighters' or a
'national liberation movement' in action, it is'irrational violence' and a return to 'terrorism,' andboth Israeli and USA officials (and therefore themainstream USA media) agree that the first order ofbusiness is to stop this terrorism."

"But in the definitional system of oppressor andpatron this is TERRORISM, horrifying andintolerable. What Israel has done making thispeople desperate is not terror. As [USA] StateDepartment PR man James Rubin explained after
another spate of Israeli demolitions of Palestinianhouses, this was 'a wrong signal' for a delicatestage in peace talks. Not bad in themselves and a
violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention, just awrong signal. Madeleine Albright called on theIsraelis to refrain from 'what Palestinians see as theprovocative expansion of settlements, land
confiscation, house demolitions and confiscation ofIDs'. Only 'the Palestinians' see these actions as'provocative;' Albright does not find themobjectionable in themselves or illegal. In fact, underClinton the United States finally rejected theinternational law and almost universal consensus onthe occupation, declaring the territories not
'occupied Palestinian lands' but 'disputed territories'(Albright). By USA fiat Palestinian lands becameopen to settlement by force by the ethnic cleanserwho the United States has armed to the teeth, andwho has aggressively brutalized while creating
'facts on the ground' during the 'dispute,' which willnot be settled until the victims end their terrorism."
"And Albright has stressed that there is 'No moralequivalency between suicide bombers andbulldozers' (Newsweek, Aug. 18, 1997). Clinton,standing next to Israeli Prime Minister ShimonPeres as the latter defended a blockade of the

Palestinians that was adding to their misery, put theblame on Hamas who were allegedly 'trying to makethe Palestinians as miserable as possible' (Phila.Inquirer, March 15, 1996). There was not theslightest hint that Israel was contributing to
Palestinian misery despite massive expropriationsand 300 devastating "closures" after 1993."
"So it is not Israeli policy, which amounts to acontinuous and illegal assault on and displacementof the Palestinians, that is ultimately at fault andthat must be changed to resolve this conflict.
Albright can't recognize that decades of 'bulldozers'necessarily produce suicide bombers, although shewas quick to find that much less repression inKosovo produced 'freedom fighters;' nor can shedistinguish between systematic policy (i.e.,
bulldozers) and uncontrollable outbursts fromvictims that do NOT constitute policy. The inabilityof these USA officials to see Israel's hugelydiscriminatory and brutal expulsions, demolitions,mistreatment and plain exploitation as seriouslywrong in themselves, illegal, or causal manifests acomplete identification with and apologetic for theethnic cleansers. Five years ago a senior ClintonWhite House official declared that 'We are not goingto second-guess Israel'. [Later] Colin Powell
assured the Jewish lobbying group AIPAC that 'Weare dedicated to preserving this special relationshipwith Israel and the Israeli people...[and] a secureIsrael with internationally-recognized bordersremains a cornerstone of the United States foreign

policy.' In short, now as in the past, and with onlyrare exceptions, as in the case of the unauthorizedIsraeli attack on Egypt in 1956, Israel will getstrong USA support for whatever it does, and theethnic cleansing of its unworthy victims can proceed
as required."
"One of the triumphs of [the] Oslo [Agreement] wasits buying off of Arafat, making him into a secondclass client and an enforcer of the pathetic'settlement,' with USA and Israeli funds and trainingexchanged for his commitment to keep his people in
line and control 'terrorism.' The formula for thewholesale terrorists (Israel) has always been:whatever violence we perpetrate is 'retaliation' andit is up to the retail terrorists (Palestinians) to stopterrorizing and then we might 'negotiate' with themin a 'peace process.' Israeli leaders say 'You can't
ask us to stop expanding existing settlements,which are living organisms' (Netanyahu), as if thiswere not in violation of UN resolutions, the FourthGeneva Convention, and even the 1993 Osloagreement itself."
"USA officials can never bring themselves to saythat what Israel is doing is wrong - at worst it maysend 'a wrong signal,' etc. And they follow closely
the Israeli party line that 'terrorism' (Palestinian,not Israeli) must be stopped first, so that the 'peaceprocess' can be put back on track. For Albright,'security' is primary, and she told Arafat that 'sheneeded a commitment and action on the subject ofsecurity' before she could make a credible approach

to Israel on other issues. 'Security' always meansIsraeli security, not Palestinian, for Albright - or forColin Powell - just as for Israeli officials. Here aselsewhere these high USA officials internalize theIsraeli perspective and the idea of 'security' for the
unworthy victims doesn't arise, any more than thenotion that Israeli insecurity arises from the muchgreater Palestinian insecurity that inevitably results
from Israeli policies. In his visit to Jerusalem inMarch 1996, Clinton spoke of 'the awful persistenceof fear' - but only in reference to Israelis, not toPalestinians. This is an internalized racist bias that
has characterized USA official statements and mediaand expert opinion here for decades."
"Why does the United States support Israel's ethniccleansing? Broadly speaking, the reasons boil down
to two factors. One is Israel's role as a USA proxy inthe Middle East and its integration into the USAsecurity system, which encompasses not onlykeeping the Arab world in line, but also providingservices like supplying arms to the Somoza regimein Nicaragua, the Pinochet government of Chile,Mobutu, Idi Amin, apartheid South Africa, and theGuatemalan and Argentinian terror states. Becauseof these services, Israel's victims are not merelyunworthy, they also become 'terrorists' and part of
the 'Islamic threat' for the USA political elite andmainstream media."
"The second factor is the exceptional power of thepro-Israel lobby, which for many years has boughtand bullied politicians and the media, so that they

all vie with one another in genuflections to the holystate. This bullying is especially strong and effectivein Canada and the United States, but it applieswidely, and the distinguished British reporter RobertFisk, describing the abuse he has suffered in
reporting on the Middle East, says that 'the attemptto force the media to obey Israel's rules is nowinternational'."
"These factors feed into the intellectual and mediaculture in complex ways that institutionalize thehuge bias, with pro-Israeli and anti-Palestinian
perspectives internalized and / or made obligatoryby potential flak and pressure from above andwithout. This is extremely important, as there is noreason to believe that the USA public would supporta massive and brutal ethnic cleansing program if
they were given even a modest quantum of the uglyfacts, if the main victims rather than the ethniccleansers were humanized, and if the media'sframes of reference were not designed to apologizefor Israeli expropriation and violence. However, theongoing media and intellectual biases do veryeffectively complement the national policy ofsupport for the ethnic cleansing state, just as theyhelped cover up national policy supportingIndonesia's murderous occupation of East Timor,
and just as they roused the public to a pitch offrenzy over the unapproved Yugoslav violence inKosovo."

"Never before in modern history has a countrydominated the earth so totally as the United Statesdoes today... America is now the Schwarzenegger ofinternational politics: showing off muscles,
obtrusive, intimidating... The Americans, in theabsence of limits put to them by anybody oranything, act as if they own a kind of blank chequein their 'McWorld'".
NoControllingLegalAuthority, from a post on a forumabout the USA's role in the United Nations:
"The UN is headed for the dust bin of history. It hasno moral authority. It is dominated by cowards,scoundrels and thieves. It's participants do not evenobey the laws of the city of New York. Many of usare ready to help UN personnel pack and to drivethem to the airport for a one-way trip out of ourcountry. Today would not be soon enough. Good
riddance to the self-serving human debris."
