The wikipedia is interesting, I didn't know it was called that many times
I'm a little unclear on which ones were successful but it looks like a few were?
Fact that Mauritania is the cosigner makes me think Egypt just wanted anyone at all to go along with them so they can basically threaten Israel under UN sanction
I'd be shocked if it worked, mostly because escalation at this point is immediately going to ignite like 50 different proxy, civil, and interstate wars as KSA and Iran throw all the shit straight into the fan playing then counterplaying each other and taking their attention off secondary conflicts until we somethefuckhow wind up with the war for greater Azerbaijan becoming a thing because Netenyahu thought starting an irredentist genocide was how he'd save himself from being dragged into the streets like a Likkud Ghadaffi over trying to rig the courts in retaliation for them pointing out that the current plans for Irredentist genocide were illegal even under Israeli law.
What will they do to stop the US from vetoing once again?
The US can veto the Security Council because the power is there in that smaller scenario. They can't override the entire UN General Assembly, though. That said, I'm sure there would be behind the scenes pressure from the US on allies voting in the GA.
I'm more concerned about the double standard of the White House skirting Congress to supply Israel with tank ammo (does Hamas even have equipment they'd use that against, you know, besides hospitals and schools,?) vs. allowing Republicans in Congress to delay/prevent aid to Ukraine and possibly hand it to Russia.
We the U.S. will make sure humanitarian and military aids will be given to the oppressed

(does Hamas even have equipment they’d use that against, you know, besides hospitals and schools,?)
You forgot mosques and refugee shelters.
There are no vetoes in the General Assembly
