Before I complete the first sentence of this article, I’m confident that most if not all who read it can agree on at least one thing: The United Nations — the UN Human Rights Council, in particular —has not only disproportionately condemned Israel, for decades; it has also been inherently adversarial to the United States with respect to many U.S. positions and initiatives, for decades.
That said, it comes as zero surprise that United Nations Secretary General António Guterres has condemned President Donald Trump’s attack on Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend, while saying zero about the radical Islamists intentionally targeting Israeli civilian areas, including a civilian hospital.
Intentionally ignoring Iran being on the verge of manufacturing nuclear warheads, Guterres called the U.S. attack against the nuclear sites “a direct threat to international peace and security” — and then some:
I am gravely alarmed by the use of force by the United States against Iran today. This is a dangerous escalation in a region already on the edge – and a direct threat to international peace and security. There is a growing risk that this conflict could rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world. I call on Member States to de-escalate and to uphold their obligations under the UN Charter and other rules of international law. At this perilous hour, it is critical to avoid a spiral of chaos.
The hypocritical irony is profound. And even more ironic, Guterres wrote:
There is no military solution.
The only path forward is diplomacy.
The only hope is peace.
Can you imagine the laughter of the “Supreme Leader” and his fellow Islamists, assuming they read that last part? Or, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping? I can’t even…

Guterres continued spewing hypocritical, if not naive, pablum on Sunday:
We face a stark choice amid the escalation in the Middle East.
One way leads to wider war, deeper suffering & serious damage to the international order.
The other leads to de-escalation, diplomacy & dialogue.
We know which way is right.
We cannot & must not give up on peace.
Uh-huh. And what does Guterres suggest “we” should do when the Iranians and their proxies rain bombs on Israeli civilians? Fund its proxy terrorist organizations — in and outside of the Middle East? And worse?

So what does the Secretary General suggest “we” do as the radical Islamists continue their pursuit of nuclear weapons? The questions are many, but the UN’s answers and solutions are always the same.
Here’s the Reality:
The United Nations General Assembly in 2024 passed 17 resolutions of condemnation against Israel, compared to a total of six on the rest of the world combined. In 2023, the General Assembly passed 14 resolutions condemning Israel and only seven against all other countries combined. The pattern has been consistent:
Since 2015, the General Assembly has passed 141 resolutions condemning Israel, which is more than double the number of condemnatory resolutions targeted at all other countries combined. And since 2006, the UN Human Rights Council has passed 104 resolutions against Israel, as opposed to 99 against other countries.
The point here is this:
The UN largely remained crickets as the Biden administration shipped billions in aid to Ukraine, yet the antisemitic body — yes, antisemitic, by its actions — now slams President Trump for supporting Israel in its perhaps life or death conflict with the radical Islamists in Tehran whose primary goal has been, since 1979, as I wrote, earlier: to destroy the “Zionists” (the Jewish state) and the “Great Satan.”
Do you remember the old billboards: “Get the UN out of the United States and the United States out of the UN.” Yeah, those.
