it's as if you don't even really give a shit about the facts, you just need to believe
you're right. Reflexively. Robotically.

It's more likely the US opposed the ".. full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza."
part because they know Israel won't do that until all Palestinians are permanently
gone. That is Israel's stated goal.

UN:
"Despite having secured 14 votes in favour, the draft resolution put forward by the
10 elected members of the Security Council (E10), failed to pass owing to the
negative vote by a permanent member, the US.

The text also reiterated the Council’s demand for the immediate and
unconditional release of all hostages.

For a resolution to be adopted, it must secure at least nine votes in favour, and no
negative votes – or vetoes – by any of the five permanent members.

Under the UN Charter, the Security Council has the primary responsibility to
uphold international peace and security.

The US representative Ambassador Robert Wood said in his statement that the
US could not support an unconditional ceasefire unless it was tied to releasing
the hostages being held in Gaza by Hamas and other militants.

Had the draft resolution been adopted, it would have demanded immediate
access for civilians in the Gaza Strip to basic services.

It would have rejected “any effort to starve Palestinians” – the threat of famine
grows in the north as the Israeli siege there continues – while also demanding the
facilitation of full, rapid, safe and unhindered entry of aid at scale to and
throughout the Strip and its delivery to all those in need.

The text also demanded that the parties “fully, unconditionally, and without
delay” implement all the provisions of Security Council resolution 2735 (2024).

This includes the release of hostages, the exchange of Palestinian prisoners, the
return of the remains of hostages who have been killed, the return of Palestinian
civilians to their homes and neighbourhoods in all areas of Gaza – including in the
north – and a full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.


The draft further underscored the role of the UN relief agency for Palestine
refugees (UNRWA) as the backbone of the humanitarian response in Gaza.

It called on all parties to enable UNRWA to carry out its mandate as adopted by
the General Assembly, with full respect for the humanitarian principles of
humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence.

It also urged respect for international humanitarian law, including the protection of
UN and humanitarian facilities, while welcoming the Secretary-General’s and
UNRWA’s commitment to fully implement the recommendations of an
independent review of the agency led by former French Foreign Minister
Catherine Colonna."
