Israel's status at the United Nations depends on its ending the “occupation” and on the ability of “Palestine” to act as a state, warned special investigator and Canadian legal expert Michael Lynk during an official briefing to the international body.

“I raise the question, does the occupying [power] need to realize that its status in the international community and at the UN depends on allowing the Palestinians to exercise their inalienable right to self-determination and independence and to bring the occupation to an end?” Lynk said

So Russia can invade and annex part of Ukraine, Iran can execute gays and jail hijab-abstainers, Saudi Arabia can publicly behead people, China can still brutalize Tibet, or even the US (and other countries) could stay in Iraq for a decade (not on the same moral level as the others but still), but Israel can be expelled or suspended from the UN for protecting itself against an enemy who has sought its genocide since even before the administration of the West Bank. Yeeuuppp.
