This is why no country should have veto power. The USA and Israel have held back the UN from fulfilling its promise for...ever, really. China, Russia, and other have pitched in to fuck up good things from time to time but it's usually the big two war god worshipping nations.

When a religion is based on worshipping a god of war, don't be surprised when they're violent; physically, mentally, verbally, politically...

Edit: as pointed out in a reply: Israel has no veto power.

From my research.

This wasn't a UN vote. It was a committee vote on whether to bring it to the assembly or not. Obviously if the US is against it then there's no reason to have a vote.

Also it wasn't really making food a right for your citizens, it was about using starvation as a war tactic.

Thank you for the correction. Shame on me for being too lazy to look it up.
