Abstract

The contradictory role of the United Nations in supporting the Zionist movement at the beginning of the establishment of the Israeli state and approving the partition of the historical land of Palestine has been the source of the reproduction of the permanent crisis of occupation, genocide, and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people. This crisis, with the entry of the United States hegemony into international politics and its structural control over international organizations, has turned the Palestinian-Israeli crisis into a complex and insoluble issue due to the widespread support for the Zionist regime and the denial of the human and territorial rights of the Palestinian people. In this regard, the main question of this article is: how does the role of the United States in the content of Chapter 5 of the United Nations Charter function in reproducing the crisis of occupation and Palestinian genocide? The hypothesis of the article shows that the exclusive powers of the core powers in Chapter 5 of the United Nations Charter in the form of realist buck-passing of responsibility has paved the way for mafia actions and the exercise of exclusive influence by the United States in favor of the Zionist regime, and the international institutional obligation to form an independent Palestinian state requires a structural reform of the United Nations Charter. The present study seeks to examine the aforementioned hypothesis based on the method of critical structural analysis in the international system.
