TL;DR Summary

The United Nations General Assembly voted overwhelmingly for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, with 153 nations approving the resolution. Only 10 countries, including the US and Israel, voted against it. This comes after the US vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire. President Biden has criticized Israel's "indiscriminate bombing" of Gaza, but the Palestinian diplomat Nada Tarbush believes that actions, not words, are needed from the US government. Tarbush also highlights the isolation of Israel and the US, as more countries are calling for a ceasefire and an end to the Israeli assault on Gaza. She discusses the history of Palestine, the ongoing ethnic cleansing, and the Israeli government's denial of Palestinian identity.
