UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) -The United Nations General Assembly on

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
therefore be admitted to membership" and it "recommends that the
Security Council reconsider the matter favorably."

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.
