Here’s a comment I keep seeing: “Jews only like the UN when it suits them. You accepted the 1947 partition plan but reject everything else the UN does. Hypocrites.”
And here’s my response: You’re confusing two completely different things.
The UN recommending a partition in 1947 and the UN institutionalizing hereditary refugee status through UNRWA for 75 years are not the same policy. Not the same context. Not the same organization, really.
Accepting one UN proposal while criticizing another isn’t hypocrisy. It’s evaluating each on its merits.
So today, let’s talk about the UN’s two faces. How one resolution tried to solve a problem, and how another made sure that problem never gets solved.
