Later this month, the UN GA will vote on Palestinian Statehood, most likely.
Trump has banned Abbas and 80 members of the Palestinian groups (all Palestinian Authority and PLO)
from entering the country, and since the UN is - at least for now - still located in NYC, they can't come.
Again, the U.S. is sure to VETO the full membership of Palestine in the UN.
The next move being discussed by Palestinian sympathetics is to employ the GA to call up
The "Uniting for Peace" Resolution, General Assembly Resolution 377 (V) of 1950.
According to the Resolution, which was specifically enshrined in UN law so that one member of the SC could not prohibit peace,
the GA can call upon member states to send military forces into problem areas for certain reasons, and the Palestine situation
fits that bill perfectly.
It cannot be vetoed by the US. This means that nations can send their military into Palestine, throw out Israel, and legally defend
themselves in the process against any Israeli attempt to stop them.
