What's your opinion on this issue?

So for those informed about the situation between Palestine and Israel, I'm sure you know the situation is pretty tense. So basically what happens was Israel placed Palestinians in internment camps kinda like how the Japanese were in America during WW2 (I'm not sure if they're being treated worse though). So basically the UN set restrictions on this (I'm not sure the correct term) and this was the first time the US didn't side with Israel they did not vote on it in the Security Council. What are your thoughts?

My personal opinion is while I don't agree with Israel doing this because I believe people should be able to be left alone if they haven't done anything. I don't believe it's the UN's place to step in. Now I am biased as I don't believe in the UN and I am very much against a world police and Globalism and feel if Israel should be able to do what they want and if a certain country wants to call them out they should not the UN. But what do I know in just a 16 year old idiot. Also I'm not here to debate my opinion I just want to here differing ones.

Newspapers like the New York Times? A very left leaning paper? Or how about the The Washington Compost? Surely you don't mean the kind that dumb people down just as much as MSNBC and CNN do you? Remember these are the same people that gave Trump a 1% chance of winning. They're not news anymore they're propaganda and actually from what I've seen in the people in my classes like Debate and AP Government they're actually VERY liberal so I think you'd expect my politics to be liberal wouldn't you? I said I wasn't here to debate my stance but to discuss the topic and learn more about it from all sides? Why do I come off more mature than you? And as for the not being able to vote I don't see how that effects anything I understand the electoral college so I don't see what difference it makes if I can't vote.
