frank ryan Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 at its VERY finest - china and russia represent nearly a third of the world's population, a world that is outraged at the Israeli treatment of the palestinians, its undeclared nukes and its arrogance in the face of critcism, but the UK and the US won't allow a word against them. UN members know that a motion soon turns into NATO bombing campaign and I salute the russians and chinese for finally standing up to uncle sam and the english.

You're feeling smug about the west because the Chinese and Russians have vetoed a resolution which would have helped save the lives of many muslims? Blimey, you hate your fellow muslims too?

It would have been nice if there was a veto of some sort against the mass killings on Syria. Let me get this straight. You're feeling smug about the west because the Chinese and Russians have vetoed a resolution which would have helped save the lives of many muslims? I'm just pointing out (as I said) the hypocrisy of the US. The killings in Syria need to be stopped asap. I condemn the US, Russia, and China for their sickening stances.

WeX Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 so are the syrians, saying russia and china have handed the syrian government a license to kill. I can only assume there is money involved somewhere here as its always to do with money when the russians or chinese have much to say, but suffice to say russia and china have blood on their hands.

Your opening post would suggest otherwise. I don't really think you care who dies so long as you can be smug. You're a terrible human being.
