Giving The United Nations A Chance To Do The Right Thing

If you read this blog on a regular basis, you know that I don’t support the United Nations.  I believe it has become a club of tyrants do not stand for freedom or prosperity for anyone but themselves.  How they react to the following complaint will either confirm or ruin my theory.

Haaretz reported yesterday that Israel will lodge a formal complaint with the United Nations after more than 50 mortars were fired into Israel from Gaza on Saturday morning.  Hamas has claimed responsibility for 10 of the mortars. 

According to the article:  Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman

“(Foreign Minister Avigdor) Lieberman, in a message to the UN, warned that a future Palestinian state would be a “terrorist state who’s first and foremost goal is the destruction of Israel.”

“The offensive from Gaza took place while “Hamas and the Palestinian Authority were talking about reunification,” Lieberman’s message said.”

I don’t know if there has ever been a ‘requirement or test’ to become a state, but if there were, the actions of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority (PA) should disqualify them.  Hamas and the PA have stated that they would like to become a state.  They have also stated that they would like to drive Israel into the sea.  Wouldn’t making them a state give them permission to do that?  Does the world really need another terrorist state?  As I have said before, “Change the culture–then create the state.”  Until hatred is not taught in the schools in Gaza and until the idea of living in peace is taught, Palestine should not be a state.  The violence isn’t about being a state (the violence was there before the idea of statehood was introduced, see Walid Shoebat‘s website–the idea of a Palestinian state was introduced in 1967–until then Jordan was considered to be the Palestinian state)–this is simply a violent culture that has aimed its anger at Israel.  Let’s not make them legitimate.

It will be interesting to see what the United Nations does with the complaint.
