A UNGA resolution adopted under Uniting for Peace could -
1. Call on all states to adopt comprehensive sanctions and a military embargo against the Israeli regime. While it lacks the power to enforce sanctions, it can call them, monitor them, and supplement them as required.
2. Decide to reject the UNGA credentials of Israel, as the UNGA did in the case of apartheid South Africa.
3. Mandate an accountability mechanism (like a criminal tribunal) to address Israeli war crimes, crimes against humanity, apartheid, and genocide.
4. Reactivate the UN’s long-dormant anti-apartheid mechanisms to address Israeli apartheid, and
5. Mandate an armed, multinational, UN protection force to deploy to Gaza (and, ultimately, to the West Bank), acting at the request of the State of Palestine, to protect civilians, open entry points via land and sea, facilitate humanitarian aid, preserve evidence of Israeli crimes, and assist in recovery and reconstruction.
That's right - take away their UN membership and kick out Israel, as was the case with Apartheid South Africa.
