Bet! Sadly you face the issue of breaking against agreed upon international rules by intervening without SC mandate. So break the rules to follow the rules, or follow the rules and let a genocide happen?
There's big issues with both paths, one for the long term and the other is letting millions of innocents starve to death..
You don't need a security council to know international rules , to know that there is a genocide in Palestine and that you need to respect them .
You would never use this excuse if the USA vote against any country helping Ukrainians in the security council . Shouldn't be different for any other conflict
No, but under the UN charter the SC is the only ones who can decide for action that could actually stop the genocide.
This is an explanation, not an excuse mate. So no, it is not different from any other conflict.
Russia is a member of the SC that has the veto , it blocked all the resolutions against it does that mean no countries should support Ukraine and that supporting Ukraine goes against the security council decision?
The genocide convention has a superior legal status compared to Security Council resolutions.
No?
