"The UN's War on Democracy"

In this conversation, brothers Simeon and Calev Myers discuss the perceived bias of the United Nations towards Israel, exploring the historical context of UN resolutions, the role of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), and the implications of humanitarian aid distribution in the Palestinian territories. They critique the effectiveness of UNRWA and highlight Qatar's involvement in human rights violations, ultimately arguing that the UN has become a platform for ideological warfare rather than a facilitator of genuine dialogue and humanitarian efforts.
