That authority is concentrated in a group of 15 members, 10 of whom are elected to serve two-year terms. They are the allied victors of World War II, fiercely protective of a privilege reserved for them that dates back to the 1945 founding of the UN.The veto was conceived as a means of checks and balances, and a way to keep bad decisions from being passed.
The 13-year-old crisis continues to this day despite numerous Council emergency meetings, draft resolutions and dramatic walkouts. Records show that in the past five decades or so, the US vetoed at least 50 Security Council resolutions on Israel, ranging from illegal settlements in the occupied territories to violence against Palestinians.The question is if the US pivot will have any impact on a conflict that’s killed more than 30,000 people in under six months.
