US submits UN resolution calling for Gaza cease-fire, hostage release
The Hills ^ | 03/21/2024 | BRAD DRESS

The U.S. has submitted a resolution at the United Nations that calls for an immediate cease-fire in Gaza and the release of all hostages held by Hamas, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said.

Blinken said in an interview Wednesday with an outlet in Saudi Arabia that the U.S. put forward a resolution that calls for an immediate cease-fire tied to a release of hostages. Hamas is believed to be holding some 100 hostages still alive in Gaza.

“We hope very much that countries will support that,” Blinken said. “I think that would send a strong message, a strong signal.”

A draft resolution for the U.S. proposal was first circulated last month, around the time when Washington vetoed a U.N. Security Council call for an immediate cease-fire without any conditions.

Bibi N has already said that Israel would agree to a ceasefire if the hostages were release and hamas put down their weapons.

Every time the muslims are getting their assets kicked, we need a cease fire.

Whatever, the US government supplied Hamas with rifles and training and money. They have been silent at Hamas and Palestinian depredations.

Now they race to defend them after the disgusting October 7 atrocity. After that, they must face a total WWII Japan or German defeat.

Border-erasing traitor Biden demands that Israel also destroy itself.

They should have called for Hamas to surrender and release all hostages.

A week or so ago, a Hamas spokesman said they really have no idea how many are still alive because not all of them are held by Hamas, but by proxies and other groups. They may all be dead by now.......................

Biden is worried about losing swing-state Michigan because of the muslim population there, but at the expense of the other 6 swing states. Perhaps he knows its hurting him where muslim populations are insignificant, but orders from OB’s headquarters must be obeyed.

It’s more evidence, imho, that Obama’s minions populated throughout this administration are doing his bidding to eliminate jews from the planet.

Likely the hostages are already raped and murdered.

Has HAMAS released any dead hostages for their bodies to go back to Israel and the families?

During the early days of WW 2 the United States was neutral. Funny, but I don’t recall FDR demanding that Britain stop fighting Nazi Germany.

I don't think these animals have any incentive to keep them alive at this point, and animals do what animals do.

The UN resolution is for unconditional "ceasefire" (surrender).

I suppose if Israel does not comply, this will "legitimize" US military action? As it might be Iraq in the first Gulf War?

US foreign policy (and not just in the Middle East) is burn the world to the ground and rule the ashes.
