    I’ll remind you that north Korea is viewed more favorably in the UN than Israel if you go by number of condemnations annually. I’m talking pre oct 7th here.

      Is that meant as a defense of Israel or…? What am I supposed to take from that aside from Israel should stop doing unethical things so regularly that even North Korea doesn’t get reprimanded as often? I’ll remind you in turn that North Korea didn’t -actually- bomb an embassy (so a condemnation wouldn’t make sense) - feel free to swap the countries in my comment to whichever you want. That was an analogy to showcase how if it wasn’t America’s lovechild breaking international law no one would even consider justifying it. It was also a direct rebuttal to your prior “they’re technically at war so it’s ok” argument. Israel actually did bomb an embassy of one country within the borders of another country.
