December 20—As of this writing, the evening of Dec. 20, 2023, the United Nations Security Council has been unable to schedule a vote on a U.A.E.-authored resolution calling for a halt to the fighting in Gaza—because the Biden administration, yet again, is threatening to veto any resolution containing the word “ceasefire.” With its actions, the U.S. continues to provide cover for—and is facilitating—the Netanyahu government’s unending butchery of innocent Palestinians in Gaza. Today, local health authorities said the death toll has now surpassed 20,000.
