The Palestinians are a nation without a state, it's true, but they do have an elected gov't. If the UN wanted to be balanced, then they would see both sides of the situation and make at least a half-hearted attempt. But they don't and every resolution they pass that fails to see both sides of the story, contributes to further injustices in that part of the region.

I don't deny that Israel has done a lot of wrong. I've posted here before about how I think their whole Democratic ideal founded on racial dominance in their country is bound to fail in the long run, because it is inferior to a meltingpot Democracy like America's. However, I don't believe there is only one failed actor in this play. The Palestinians are not just hapless victims here.
