"U.N. chief Antonio Guterres on Monday condemned escalating violence by Israeli settlers and renewed annexation calls following Israel’s announcement of expanded military operations in the occupied West Bank.
His warning comes after Israel on Sunday said its troops would remain for many months in refugee camps in the occupied West Bank. Tens of thousands of Palestinians living there have been displaced by an intensifying military operation.
"I am gravely concerned by the rising violence in the occupied West Bank by Israeli settlers and other violations, as well as calls for annexation," Antonio Guterres told the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva.
The military began a major raid against Palestinian resistance groups in the West Bank's north a month ago, just after a truce went into effect in the Gaza Strip, a separate Palestinian territory.
The West Bank offensive has gradually expanded, spanning multiple refugee camps near the cities of Jenin, Tulkarem and Tubas.
Also Sunday, Israel's military announced tank deployments in Jenin, where it was "expanding" operations.
This marks the first time tanks have operated in the West Bank since the end of the second Palestinian intifada, or uprising, in 2005.
Violence in the West Bank has surged since the start of the Gaza war that began after Hamas' deadly Oct. 7, 2023 incursion inside Israel.
Guterres on Monday also stressed the importance of the fragile cease-fire in place in Gaza since Jan. 19.
"We are witnessing a precarious ceasefire. We must avoid at all costs a resumption of hostilities. The people in Gaza have already suffered too much," he said.
"It's time for a permanent cease-fire, the dignified release of all remaining hostages, irreversible progress towards a two-state solution, an end to the occupation, and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state, with Gaza as an integral part.""
Does this man not realize how hopelessly stupid his empty and disingenuous statements really are?
To add insult to injury, it was the League of Nations and later the United Nations that created the Palestinian problem, in the first place. Now they lament because their stupid and criminal plans for a Jewish State turned into hell for the indigenous people, the Palestinians. I wonder how many of these selfish people were bought and paid for by Zionist's interests, in order to pave the way for the expulsion of the rightful owners of the land?
It is no secrete that some powerful European nations, in days gone by, sought to rid themselves from the Jewish people living among them, in Ghettos, acting like a nation within a nation. They called their hosts "Infidels" and refused to integrate within the host's society. The Hosts desperately sought for means to solve their problem, i.e., where could they ship them, so to speak, somewhere for good; Palestine was the answer, apparently.
The British always had a low esteem for Arabs, Muslims in particular; allowing the forced displacement of them, by the Zionists, was just a natural sequence of events apparently; nobody lost any sleep over it, it seems.
"Winston Churchill once said, "Islam is as dangerous in a man as rabies in a dog."" https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/winston-churchill-islam-rabies/
"In 1937, while speaking in favour of allowing Jews to settle in Palestine, Churchill stated that:
I do not admit ... for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_views_of_Winston_Churchill

- "In 1920, the League of Nations granted Britain the mandate of Palestine. British-controlled Mandatory Palestine existed until the creation of the State of Israel in 1948. In the post-World War I period and subsequent geopolitical changes, the League of Nations granted Britain the mandate to administer the territory known as Palestine."

The United Nations was designed to fail!
The power of veto by a few made sure that in the final analysis only a handful of big powers could negate the will of the vast majority of nations. Israel relies on the U.S. veto power to carry out crimes against humanity, and flaunting International Laws.
History will remember that the U.S. facilitated and protected the criminal acts by Israel to this very day. Yes, the United Nations is nothing but a hoax, a mirage at best.
