How come the US never attempted to implement Un resolutions on
ISrael. The US did not go all the way in 1990 because it wanted Saddam to
remain as a counterbalance to Iran.

And the US government is the mass murderer who killed 100s of thosands of

No!! What did the US use in Vietnam if it was not chemical weapons. As you
rightly put it agent orange has had devastating effects which still affect
the ecology in Vietnam. All this is without counting conventional weapons
of mass destruction directly used or provided to dictators around the
world which have killed millions.
