The draft resolution text, according to the UN, “reaffirmed the Council’s earlier call for the “immediate, dignified and unconditional release of all hostages held by Hamas and other groups.”
Dignified? There’s no such thing as far as Hamas is concerned, given its savagery and cruelty toward the hostages, not to mention those who were murdered outright.
The UN should be calling for the complete dismantling of Hamas and the prosecution of its surviving leaders for the October 7 jihad attacks, as well as for using human shields in Gaza, continuing to pose an existential threat to Israel, stealing food supplies intended for Gazans, and intentionally disrupting aid to Gazans.
The UN continues to aid and embolden Hamas and other jihadists by calling for a permanent ceasefire. This call is for Israel to end its war on Hamas permanently, which would be a tremendous victory for the global jihad.
“US vetoes Security Council resolution demanding permanent ceasefire in Gaza,” UN News, June 4, 2025:
A draft resolution calling for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza failed to pass in the UN Security Council on Wednesday after the United States cast its veto – blocking the initiative backed by all ten elected members of the Council.

As one of the council’s five permanent members, the US holds veto power – a negative vote that automatically blocks any resolution from going forward.
Had it been adopted, the draft would have demanded “an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gaza” to be respected by all parties.
The text reaffirmed the Council’s earlier call for the “immediate, dignified and unconditional release of all hostages held by Hamas and other groups.”
The draft also expressed grave concern over the “catastrophic humanitarian situation” in Gaza – following months of almost total Israeli aid blockade – including the risk of famine, highlighted by recent assessments by international food security experts.
It reaffirmed the obligation of all parties to comply with international law, including international humanitarian and human rights law….
