And also, guess what countries voted against condemning Nazism? Here’s a hint: everyone’s favorite eastern European country who everyone claims doesn’t have a Nazi issue and the Eagle country didn’t vote for it
^From^ ^Voting^ ^records^ ^of^ ^the^ ^Third^ ^Committee^^:^
Recorded vote on draft resolution A/C.3/77/L.5, as orally revised and as amended - Combating glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance
Recorded vote on draft amendment A/C.3/77/L.52 - Amendment to draft resolution A/C.3/77/L.5
US and Ukraine voted no, on L.5. And yes on the L.52 amendment.
For reference:

Huh, Israel voted "yes" on the L5?
Yes. It also voted "yes" on L.52
You can only fight neo-Nazis if you leave it at talking about fighting neo-Nazis. If you actually go out and do any fighting then that's just counterproductive.
CW hate crimes
I wonder what the Venn diagram is for people who argue for talking Nazis out of their views and people who support (or do the work of) planting hidden barrels wrapped in razor wire and barbed wire along the US border so that asylum seekers are forced into a deadly river.That vote was one of the two times a day the Israeli broken clock was correct, iirc.
Would have been super awkward if Israel voted against that.
It should have been awkward for all the countries that the Nazis invaded, but here we are
Bibi blamed Palestinians for holocaust, so...

When was the other one, out of curiosity?
probably kidnapping and stringing up Eichmann in the 60's
Yeah that was a pretty cool moment.
