UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) -The United Nations General Assembly on
Friday overwhelmingly backed a Palestinian bid to become a full U.N.
member by recognizing it as qualified to join and recommending the
U.N. Security Council "reconsider the matter favorably."

The vote by the 193-member General Assembly was a global survey of
support for the Palestinian bid to become a full U.N. member - a move
that would effectively recognize a Palestinian state - after the
United States vetoed it in the U.N. Security Council last month.

The assembly adopted a resolution with 143 votes in favor and nine
against - including the U.S. and Israel - while 25 countries
abstained. It does not give the Palestinians full U.N. membership, but
simply recognizes them as qualified to join.

The resolution "determines that the State of Palestine ... should

The State of Palestine is currently occupied by an entity which is
treating the Palestinian civilian population the same as the German
occupation forces treated the civilians of Belarus during WWII. Where
are the UN peace-keeping forces?

Rotating hunger strikes. As they get more volunteers, they will have
enough to do 4-hour shifts.

Exactly. Certainly, I, too was young once, and hopelessly naive and
idealistic. For a while I even thought that socialism was the answer.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.  And that we could all have peace and join hands and
sing Koombyah. Not.

 I grew up in the 60s in southern cal. All the protests and shit and it
changed nothing. Now most of them are just working and surviving.
