  1. What about whataboutism?

  3. You must stay inside your echo chamber if you want to keep believing that. Shoo!

  4.  @dmitrygorbunov9219  Did the UN's overwhelming condemnation of Russia's illegal war of aggression in Ukraine turn you into a cynic?

  5. Hamas has a seat in the UN? Nothing of the sort. The Palestinian Authority -- controlled by Fatah, Hamas's political nemesis -- has observer status in the UNGA.

  6. No one in his or her right mind questions the supreme evil of Hamas, but the problem here is that Israel has proven a willing henchman. Some of us (still) hold Israel to a higher standard. Israel, too, professes to uphold a higher standard, although it's not apparent from its lack of restraint.

  7.  @ald6265  Not true. He's condemned Hamas's terrorism and hostage-taking in no uncertain terms. You're just not very observant, or willfully ignorant.

  8.  @ald6265  So, for your peace of mimd, you would like to see all manner of disclaimers and clarifications added to in each and every comment that Guterres is quoted on. I'm sure he does include them, but the media don't necessarily pick up on those. If you're terribly interested, read the unabridged transcripts of his speeches. They're available on the UN's website. Say, while at it, why don't you start your own news channel on YouTube? Call it THE FULL NEWS or something. Insomniacs would appreciate it. I bet it beats counting sheep.

  9.  user-dq8ku3pj6d  As I wrote earlier, what about whataboutism? Are you slow on the uptake?

  10.  @dmitrygorbunov9219  The UNGA condemned Putin's Ukrainian military adventure with 143 in favour, 5 against. An exasperated Krembot would turn into a UN cynic for less.

  11.  @dmitrygorbunov9219  You're a cynic if you say that Guterres says what he's paid to say. I can only guess what turned you into such a cynic -- which is what I'm doing. You can keep it a secret if it makes you feel all warm and cosy.

  12. Guterres has made plenty of comments about Hamas, and none of them were exactly flattering, on the contrary. Try to keep up with the news.
