UN Security Council calls for immediate Gaza truce

Why?

They had one of those in place and Hamas declared an end to it. So Hamas can go suck wind..

Because that is what the UN security council does.

Whenever there is a conflict the UN security council always calls for an immediate ceasefire. If they’d been in existence in 1939 when the Nazi’s invaded Poland they would have called for an immediate ceasefire. They’d have called for one when Japan attacked Pearl Harbour and probably one when the allies landed in Tunisia to topple the Vichy French.

To be fair, how actually could they do anything else? Can you imagine “The UN security council calls for the war between country A and country B to continue, with all the attendent loss of life, money and infrastructure. One fall, one submission or a knockout to decide the winner?”
