One good thing about all this is that it has demonstrated more clearly than ever before the depths of criminality of the Israel-US axis. It's obvious for the whole world to see. These two states are quickly becoming pariahs. The world now sees with crystal clarity the monsters they are dealing with.

And so its the UN will have to vacate New York, kick the USA out, and form a new international body that is truly democratic and reflects world opinion. No longer hostage to American criminality. It was questionable the UN should have located been located in NY in the first place. It has already been suggested there be a rotational headquarters in five global locations. The US will never be willing to see reform so it is self-excluding. Just as BRICS is foundational a new multipolar world so too will the UN have to be replaced or reconstituted. Washington is showing itself as a master at turning itself into the global pariah state, sinking fast.

The events now prove the present modelling of the UN is out date.

"Meanwhile, the UN World Health Organization (WHO) reported on February 5 that roughly 100,000 Palestinians in Gaza had either been killed or wounded by Israel, or were missing - trapped under the rubble of the buildings that Israel had destroyed with US weapons.

Furthermore, the WHO estimated that "60% of the 27,019 fatalities reported by the enclave’s health authorities have been women and children... with more than 66,000 now injured and requiring medical care that remains difficult to access".

As of February 21, Israel had killed more than 29,000 Palestinians, according to the health ministry in Gaza.

The Gaza health ministry's data has proven to be consistently accurate. Israeli intelligence agencies have used its casualty figures for their own analysis.

Moreover, despite US President Joe Biden's misleading claims to the contrary, multiple medical experts published peer-reviewed scientific articles in the leading medical journal The Lancet, scrutinizing the data from the Palestinian health ministry and concluding that it is accurate. If anything, the death toll is conservative, and actually understates the number of Palestinians who have been killed by Israel."
